Do doers really get more done with The Home Depot? Yes they do! Inventory of more than 80,000 light fixtures? Check. Great reputation? Check. Easy-to-shop website with handy delivery and in-store pickup options? Check. Whatever you've got in mind for your lighting project, Home Depot isn't exaggerating when they say you can do it and they can help.

No fuss no muss website

There's nothing fancy or formal about Home Depot's main lighting page: just plenty of direct links to get-r-done. Don't get us wrong: there's no shortage (ha... haha... see what we did there?) of links for getting smart lights or integrated LED fixtures or browsing what's trending. But, generally speaking, you click on the picture for the type of light fixture you have in mind and away you go. Alternately, you can browse products by room or style, or go for the long route and select "Shop All Lighting" . (We don't recommend that option unless you want to pick through more than 80,000 items that include brackets, bulbs, and other fixture accessories.)

Let's narrow it down

Filters will be your best friend when you're hunting for the perfect light fixture among so many tens of thousands of possibilities. You may already have a style in mind, like classic or farmhouse, a brand that's earned your loyalty, or some other criteria that would make it the "just right" fit for your decor. How about light fixtures that are in stock today that you can order online and go pick up right away? Or that are available with free two-day delivery? Those are all options you'll find in the filters here.

Every imaginable product detail

Anything you could possibly want to know about a light fixture is displayed on its product page at Home Depot. Thumbnail images in your matching results list will tell you at a glance what color options you have, whether it's available locally for pickup, how many people have "favorited" it to see later, and how many stars it averages from other shoppers. More info awaits when you click on a fixture that catches your attention, like a detailed product overview and all of the technical specs you might need to know if it'll work where you plan to install it.

Luxury lighting too? Yes!

When it comes to light fixtures, chandeliers are our favorite way to see just how extravagant the options are. Would you be surprised to know that Home Depot sells clear crystal chandeliers for $13,000 and blown glass chandeliers for $9,900? Those larger items didn't qualify for free ship-to-home, but in-store pickup was available within two weeks at no cost. (Bonus: Home Depot said they had more than one they could send!)

Professional installation referrals available

Need help from a professional to get your light fixture done right? No sweat. Check the box for "Add Pro Referral" on the product page or during checkout. You'll be contacted by up to three Home Depot partners near you; it's up to you to work out the details and choose the installer you prefer.

No one beats this return policy

There are a lot of first-rate light fixture retailers to choose from. Home Depot slides into our first-place ranking largely due to their excellent return policy. True, there's at least one other store that matches their 90-day timeframe, but on all items that don't come with a large-item surcharge, Home Depot will pay the costs for the return shipping. Print your label from their website and off it goes, with no deduction from your refund. You can still return your light fixture to a store near you, though.

Winning reputation

Starting with the Better Business Bureau's accreditation and "A+" rating and continuing on to the thousands of shoppers who are completely loyal to the Home Depot brand, this store gets all the warm fuzzies. The light fixtures themselves may have mixed reviews, but anything that Home Depot customer service reps can do to help, rest assured that they will.

Start at Home Depot for light fixtures

You've got a lot of choices when shopping for your home improvement needs, including lighting. Why not start with the best? Not only can you get the fixtures you want, but you can fill your online cart with everything else required to take all of those projects off your honey-do list once and for all. Ample selection, first-rate customer service, and stress-free in-store pickup and returns are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to compelling reasons to shop Home Depot first. They earn our highest recommendation.
