I tried 4 items and like them all.
December 29, 2023

These are excellent for the price. The shipping is pretty intimidating, but considering the complete cost per item, it's a decent buy. Love the softness of the sweaters. I would advise people pay attention to the size chart for every item, and if you don't want a fitted garment, size up one size. Overall a good place to buy and I would buy again. Colors were true on the pictures to what I received.

Item is too large. I cannot wear it. I asked about returning it and was told I would have to ship to China. Too costly. Now I have to give it away. Not happy.

Very dessapointed
December 29, 2023

Poor product quality, the order was late, received in poor packaging and damaged. I followed the returning policy and after submission, a message pupped up stating that someone will sent an e-mail in one business day with more details on how to return the damaged product. No response for more than a week. There are no other way on how to follow up and no customer services contact details. I demand a full refund for my payment including the shipping charges.

Title: Updated Review for LightInTheBox

I am taking a moment to revise my initial review of LightInTheBox. My initial experience was less than satisfactory, which led me to express my disappointment publicly. However, I was pleasantly surprised when a Megha a representative from the company reached out to me in response to my concerns.

The customer service representative was attentive and eager to resolve the issue. They offered not just an apology but also a refund for my troubles. This gesture of goodwill has restored my faith in their commitment to customer satisfaction. I appreciate the prompt and professional handling of my concern, which was resolved to mutual satisfaction.

This experience has shown me that LightInTheBox values its customers and their feedback. They are willing to take the necessary steps to rectify problems and improve their service. With this in mind, I feel more confident to shop from them again.

Based on my updated experience, I would suggest shoppers to communicate any issues directly to the company. Their customer service team proved to be responsive and efficient in resolving my issue. Therefore, despite the initial disappointment, I am willing to give LightInTheBox another chance.

In conclusion, while the initial disappointment was disheartening, the professional response from the customer service team turned my experience around. I am now looking forward to my next shopping experience with LightInTheBox.

Recent Order
December 28, 2023

I ordered several items from different areas on app. All items were received as requested and before expected date. The clothing items were of good quality as always. I was very disappointed in the screen covers for cell phones however. For the most part, I was happy with the LITB items and will continue to shop on their site.

Garbage
December 28, 2023

Rip off. Poor quality, holes in fabric, sizing is terrible. Returned items 2 months ago to CHINA and still waiting on refund, less the $65.00 postage. There are better companies that do this in America. They do not stand behind their product.

Nice Quality, but...
December 28, 2023

The quality of the items were nice however the sizing chart was not as accurate as it should be. I had ordered a size large as I have always done for my wife, however the items arrived as an extra large although labeled as large. The chest size was at least 6" larger and the sleeves were 8" longer than indicated. My wife can not wear these at all, even if we rolled up the sleeves, which should not be required.

Very happy and great quality
December 28, 2023

This was the first article that I have ordered with LightIn TheBox and everything went great. Easy to order, very clearly what you order (with pictures and everything) en the quality is great. After this product I already ordered many more clothes en they all are great and I am sure that many more orders will follow. This order was a 'thin' sweatshirt with a Christmas print. Though it being 'thin' material it is very warm and I wear it very often.

JUNK MERCHANDISE
December 27, 2023

Bought 2 T-shirts for Xmas gift for my grandson. I ordered the biggest size available, which is actually 2 sizes larger than usual. What came is very much smaller, barely fits and extremely poor quality material. It is basically garbage and a waste of money. Merchandise came from China and that was not mentioned on their site.
