Energy Plus Wholesale Lighting

This business might just be better suited for contractors doing spec homes, decorators who have done lighting and know what fits where.  Everyone there was extremely nice, kind,  attentive, always helpful and friendly.When you tell the associate what you're looking for and emphasize bright bright, bright lights  lots and lots of light each time you meet up that should tell them what is needed. Also understanding lumens to watts is a necessary component in new lighting which I honestly did not understand. Telling the associate you need the equivalent of 360+ watts. I felt they would be able to calculate that for me.  Stock canned lighting was excellent. Outdoor lighting worked out very well. Bathroom lighting did not work well. Lumens to watts is difficult to understand. We missed the mark entirely.Remember to ask about returns and restocking fees before you purchase. That can mount up, also surcharges and freight charges, if you need to return items. We get used to returns at big box stores, who will take just about anything back. Remember,  which I did not, that small businesses  have to do business differently. They don't write off losses like big box stores. However, the young man who helped me did everything he could to  help me-above and beyond. I would return to this business if I knew exactly what I wanted, had seen it installed, and understood the amount of light rendered. The owner also reached out to offer additional help. This is a business that cares about your experience and how they can improve their customer service. Energy Plus Lighting was kind enough to reimburse me for a portion of what I lost from restocking fees and some freight charges. I like supporting local businesses- why? It's necessary to help our county's economy stay strong. I'm now more aware of caveats that are part of small business issues.  Ask questions which I did not.

I attempted to buy window shades from this business. The couple who run this business are dishonest. The woman does the lighting and the husband manages the window shades. After waiting eight months for the shades and numerous excuses from the owners we cancelled the order. The owner instead of being apologetic about taking so long to get the shades instead tells us we are not allowed to cancel and if we attempt to cancel the order he will take us to court. My recommendation is to stay away from this business at all costs.

Great experience working with Amy and Nikki at Energy Plus. We bought a 1950's home in Santa Rosa and needed lots of recessed lighting fixtures. They had a great price on the Nora led cans and so we bought like 20 of them. All items were in stock and in great condition. I also bought an under cabinet led lighting setup with the transformer built into the dimmer switch. It has performed very well. Amy is a very knowledgeable sales rep; I feel like she could almost be an electrician! She pulled up the 20/20 schematics from our kitchen cabinet plans and picked the best under cabinet lighting setup for our needs. I highly recommend using energy plus for all your lighting needs: you get great prices and invaluable expertise in one convenient package.
