Alicia and the team provided a great tailored experience to best suit my needs. They were friendly, conveniently located right off of the Kensington Light Rail stop, and had a plethora of knowledge on lighting and lamps. Highly recommend.

I needed lights for the lounge room, a statement piece for my stairwell and I also wanted a bedside lamp. The person who served me was happy to let me browse, I found a beautiful leadlight table lamp, which she insisted that she could hold until I was ready to collect it. I went back a few days later and found my Chandelier for the stairwell and two crystal ceiling lights for the lounge room. These are all still in the shop until I collect my house keys. I absolutely recommend this shop. If they do not have what you want, the staff will try to order the lights in.

I came looking for a new transformer for a fluorescent light. I was advised transformers are ancient technology and was offered a new replacement light which simply fits into the mains power supply. I thought that this was brilliant and it turned out to be so. A friend who is an electrician fitted the light and it works like a charm and is a lot brighter than the previous one. I am very happy with the service provided by George and his mum. I would recommend Cosmo Lighting to anyone who needs their services. I will definitely be back.

This is one of the best “customer service / experiences” we’ve had in a long time: thank you to George and family. The store is full of great selections of fans, lights /light shades and lamps. We went into buy three fans - came away with 5 fans , 2 lamps and 6 light shades....no pushy sales just “ full care and good listening to our needs”. Amazing - thank you.

I had my own light and all I needed was the fitting to connect it to the ceiling. Effie and Bruno went to every effort to find the perfect connection and even attached it to my light, including altering the chain. And they made me laugh throughout the experience. Good old fashioned service, thanks to you both! Highly recommended. :)

I work as a maintenance person in a 40 room hotel. Whenever i had a strange problem with lighting. The team especially Bruno calmly organised to either have the product on site or have it in store within 2-3 days. If they don't have the part, they will tell you where you may get it. Today, Bruno,sourced two external light fittings that are at least 10 years old. Good service, good humour. What else can one ask for. MAYBE some cold water, after trying to park. All my friends shop there especially for speciality products.

Great service, stock and prices - only place I could find that sells lamp shades separately. Highly recommend!

This is a lovely family owned business. They gave me plenty of time to think through my lamp purchases and provided great advice without being pushy. I wish I had reason to go more often! It was such a nice experience, very warm and friendly.

We had a problem with a ceiling fan light after a power outage caused the light to fail. Uncertain about the cause and when replacing the globe brought no joy and after failing to find a battery to replace existing one, we were at our wit's end. One phone call to the amazing staff at Cosmo's and problem solved in 40 seconds, literally. The technician, Bruno, talked me through the process with meticulous care and the advice was profound. There was light!!! Thanks so much

Best ever personal service and creative thinking. Lots of ideas to best fit you style. Also assisted me with artfully adding light to my shell mobile. A great range of state of the art LED globes like you've never seen before!

Can you rewire an old or antique lamp?

Yes. Re-wiring old and antique table and floor lamps is a specialty, including replacing perished cords, sockets and switches while keeping the original look.

Can you find parts for a discontinued light?

Often. Cosmo sources rare imports and discontinued parts, and where a part no longer exists the bench can adapt a modern equivalent.
