There's also an attempt to do hardware like rolls of electrical cabling, and they got some pretty nifty old retro clocks and watches. This is the kind of shop I would've liked when I was 14, when my parents allowed me to start 'decorating' my bedroom and 'design' programmes like Homefront and Changing Rooms were big. It's quite fun

But we did in Notting Hill at this small corner shop which distributes all kind of lights, from the branded Italian ones (Flos, Artemide etc.) to the technical architectural ones (Modular, Wever and Ducre etc.) to more basic ones (indoor, outdoor, bathroom etc.). We got good discounts (20-25%) for larger quantities and always a very helpful service. Definitely a place to go if you need lighting for decorating a room or for a full flat/house renovation.

During a recent kitchen refurb I picked up bits and pieces for the electricians on almost a daily basis.

I've been to this shop a couple of times to replace specialized light bulbs, and each time was…read moregiven excellent advice and choices. The first time, it was a cooking hood light. I played safe that time and bought an exact duplicate, but next time I know to buy an energy efficient or LED, because it will fit the Zanussi hood I have. The second time I bought an LED bathroom light bulb, and it's a massive improvement on what I had before. They will go to a lot of trouble to serve you and their prices are fine. I think they accept credit cards, but with them I prefer to use a debit card, because I count small businesses of that standard as friends.

I found the staff and Angelo especially helpful. I will certainly be recommending people go there…read more Its good value for money and exceptional quality beats all other lighting shops

There always seems to be promotions on as well which keeps costs under control pretty well. However, I cannot get a grip on the layout of the place and end up wandering round aimlessly trying to tick off all the items on my list. An absence of assistants doesn't help matters and sometimes I wonder whether I spend longer here than on the task at hand back home. Hopefully, i will unlock the key to the maze one day soon...

Sometimes there are also deals in the main floor display area just straight on as you come past the entrance. Also, there is an amazing deal on the basic value lamp - the kind that stands vertical and has a frosted cone shape with lightbulb at the top - less than £6 will get you this lamp, and you can even choose from black, red, or chrome finish for the base part. I was really pleased as this helped me bring light into my new room and didn't break my bank as some lamps will do. Of course there is a huge selection of lamps so you can pay more if you like, but the basic value lamp is working great for me. I also got an £20 Studio Desk lamp in black, which is cute. They have all the lightbulbs you'll need as well, including eco varieties.
