Bulb is great but...
September 15, 2020

The bulb itself is great. The right size. It did arrive in a plastic bag which was surprising for ultimate protection. The killer was that the light given off is what now-a-days is called Daylight (white light). My chandelier is from Austria and was retired before shipping. The bulbs arriving with it are the soft light, which is much more pleasant and mirrors the rest of my home's lighting. There wasn't anything in the description that described the type of light given off by the bulb. Very disappointing!

They had it!
December 9, 2020

Needed hard-to-find replacement bulbs for a Broan ceiling exhaust. They had them and soon I had them. Only complaint is that my receipt said I would get an email notifying me when they were shipped. I did not get the email. When I called I was told they don't send those emails to "guest" orders. They tracked it for me. All was well.

I've only installed 2 of the 8 under cabinet lights I ordered. I'm 82 and my sides ache after half an hour of bending over the countertop, so I'm not going to rush the job. The lights work great. But, I hope my bride and I can live with the color. I switch them to warm white, she switches them to the cool white. Such is life!

I'm actually reviewing some reviewers complaints, my order was exactly what I wanted, because I researched all details of my purchase and looked at several sources before picking 1000Bulbs. P.s. Nobody likes a whiner. Or as I refer to them REPUBLICANS.

The light socket was for the repair of a 50 year old light. Finding it, at the best price, and delivered is as good as it gets. A trusted vendor just makes your day. I just had another vendor ruin a month!

I ordered long-tube bulbs for an under-counter light fixture. I ordered one dozen bulbs. They arrived in a matter of days and fit our light fixture perfectly. I will definitely use this site for other bulb purchases.

I was looking for a light fixture that would add brightness to my garage space without requiring that I run wiring to new locations. These lights did exactly that. The angled design casts light further than previous fixture which works especially well in one of my garages that is 24' long. Installation was straightforward. Be sure to purchase bulbs that don't require a ballast. For reference, I installed 2x 6 bulb fixtures in a 23' x 21' garage space (shown in pictures) and 1x 6 bulb fixture in a 11' x 24' space.

I have the wall pac up and it is a great light. A good combination with the photo cell. I just leave it do it's thing. Lights up the whole side of the building and it's like it's day time it's so bright. Will be getting one for the other end of the building.

Deceptive picture
July 12, 2019

I needed some 72" florescent bulbs for my garage I found some on this site and looked at the picture which showed the end and the connector. I needed bulbs with a single connector, the high output bulbs looked like they had a single pin, however if you turn the bulb 90 degrees you can see it is not single pin. They said they would give my money back not shipping or return shipping which is more than the bulbs. I have added a picture from the web site and one I took

I bought three bulbs. The shipping cost several times more than the bulbs, but I was willing to pay for delivery. When the package arrived, two of the three bulbs were broken. I will never use 1000Bulbs again, period.

1000Bulbs website knowing and admitting with their Sales department manager pointed me to one thing but sent something different. Upon receiving the smaller package without opening it I called them to say the package was too small for what was expected.
I asked them to search the web as I did, they came up with the same, what I wanted but not what was sent. They sent me the correct item with a small discounted price.
The real problem lays with shipping and cost, the shipping cost are higher then need be.
Their admitted error still cost me, the original shipping, the return shipping, and the shipping to get the correct item.
3 days later had to get more fixtures, I went to another supplier who has never charged me shipping.

Perfect product with A+ service. Greatly appreciated! My order was delivered promptly and securely. I was worried since I did not buy a full unit. I was assured it would be packaged properly and it was!

I was sweating if I would get the item prior to my electrician's arrival esp. Since I ordered it late on a Friday and needed it in 6 calendar days. I did pay for expedited shipping but even with that, I knew I was cutting it close if it wasn't shipped out until Monday. Happily, 1000. Bulbs put the item in the mail on Friday and I got it on Tuesday.

Lamps didn't fit.
September 19, 2019

They must be knock offs or seconds becaus they were about 1/4 of an inch to long.
Ordered 2- F16T4 6400K lamps and they were 1/4/" longer than the GE lamps that came out of the fixture.
I will not order from here again.

Waiting.
July 25, 2019

I ordered these lights through a giftcard promo. Didnt see anywhere to add the code for the giftcards, ordered them on my mobile device... Anyway, emailed support person that I received an email from instantly. I explained to her that I forgot to add the promo code and would like it added. Never received a response from that email, did receive the lights promptly, and havent seen a giftcard... electronic or in the mail. Been three weeks.

Lightbulb disaster
July 18, 2019

I received two light bulbs both do not work. I called to say the first lightbulb rattled when shaked and did not work in lamp. The second shipment was the same. The customer service was great just not the product.

Great light tubes
July 30, 2020

I'm installing these bulbs in my work shops & the difference from the old 40 watt 4foot bulb is really amazing. Love being able to see things in the day time with the new LED bulbs. Shipping was fast & I have a total of 75 new bulbs. I have 3 rows of fixtures with separate switches for each row. I recommend the ballast free bulbs, They are not that difficult to install. Thanks for having these T8 bulbs in stock, I love them.

When my kitchen light went out, i bought new florescent bulbs but still didn't work properly. After trying to find a new ballast locally, a sales person suggested 1000 bulbs and even looked it up at his store to find the correct one. When I got home went on line to order product and noticed the note to call with any questions which I did. I sure am glad because I chose the incorrect ballast and your sales person found the correct one and suggested that it was a good time to also upgrade to a more efficient ballast and new bulbs. Sales person was kind, polite, very efficient and extremely helpful! FANTASTIC JOB, the parts worked perfect!
