As a shopper I value good customer service, knowledgeable staff and value for money, not only do Sad Shop excel in all these areas, but they provide good quality products that work. 

Having spent years trying to find something to help my shift worker husband cope with his disturbed sleep patterns, I was so pleasantly surprised when I gave Sad Shop a ring. 

They understood what he was going through and recommended a Litepod, which fitted perfectly on his desk. 

Since using the Litepod his mood swings aren't as frequent and he isn't as tired, making both our lives more bearable, so our thanks to the Team at Sad Shop for all their help.

Dear Beverley,

Just a little note to say a big thank you for your excellent advice on the phone about S.A.D Light boxes.

Your common sense approach and down to earth advice about what type I actually needed was most welcome and I am thrilled with my Diamond 4 light box.

It was delivered by courier on Monday 6th November and after unpacking it was immediately put to work!

I now use it every morning for 20 minutes while I eat my breakfast and reflect on what I need to do that day and it is also used with sewing and embroidery sessions to give a wonderful clear white light.

Thank you again for your excellent advice and very prompt delivery and I do hope you received my exemption certificate equally promptly.

My box is proving to be worth its weight in gold.

Yours Sincerely

Mrs J Tilley

Hello,

Not sure if you remember us. We came into your shop a few weeks ago and bought a Bright Spark s.a.d lightbox to take home with us to the Netherlands. 

I wanted to let you know that I have been using it everyday and my depressive symptoms have gone away. I am feeling much lighter, energetic and overall happier than I did before. I am sure my husband can vouch for it aswell, as he no longer has a sad wife moping around the house!

I never realised that light could have such an impact on my mood, but I really do notice a difference since I have the lightbox on at my desk at home where I work. I work from home most days, and I sit behind the computer most of the time, so I have the box on continuous all day.

Thanks again for all your help, and I think I will be saving up to buy a smaller travel version as I do have to travel on occasions, or for those days that I come into the office. 

Best Regards

Phil Coupe

Hi there,

I bought a Lumie Desk Lamp from you a couple of weeks ago and I cannot believe the difference it has made to me.

I never realised I suffered from S.A.D, until recently, I have suffered severe anxiety depression for several years and it was only when a relative pointed out that my depression never seemed to occur in the summer that the penny dropped. 

Since using the Lumie desk lamp I feel more energised during the day and am no longer craving sweet foods, I really am convinced that this is because of the s.a.d lamp and I whole heartedly recommend it to anyone suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Thank you very much, I now feel I can really look forward to Christmas this year - instead of dreading it and feeling awful. Also your customer service and staff are wonderful.

With sincere thanks and best wishes.

Dear Sad Shop!

I just wanted to let you know that it was very gratifying, therefore, to receive such friendly and helpful advice from Beverley and Margaret and to discover that there are still some organisations that treat their customers as human beings. Please convey to them my thanks for their help.

Yours Faithfully

I keep telling people about it - most say 'I wonder if that would help my niece/son/husband.....

Thank you

Dear Beverley,  

I would like to say a huge big thank you for your help and consideration and understanding which most of all when I was feeling so very low because of Seasonal Affective Disorder, when I spoke to you last week was of great help to me. 

Your advice to me to rent an Apollo s.a.d light box from yourselves has been great. The prompt delivery too which was hassle free and as you may know hassle is the last thing you need when you are feeling so bad was a relief.

I have started using the s.a.d light box with 1/2 an hour each day for the last past week and I have already started to feel 'more human' and able to cope in general has been a ray of sunshine in it's self.

I know it has only been a few days but for the first time in weeks of doom and gloom I have had the best day ever I feel light and refreshed and I am once again able to enjoy life itself with renewed enthusiasm. 

No one especially me thought that a lightbox could make that much difference, so thank you and well done for the excellent service.

A happier customer

Dear The Sad Light Hire Company, 

I just want to let you know I have enjoyed using the Brite-Box s.a.d lightbox, it has been of great help to me. Its such a great idea you offer a rental service to try the lightboxes first. I shall probably purchase one from you before next winter, when I return to the UK. 

Thank you very much for your excellent service - everyone has been very efficient and helpful. 

Yours Sincerely

Hi Beverley,

Thank you so much in helping me find the right lightbox. I have limited mobility so I needed this and I don't know if it was the light therapy or other events that made me feel brighter throughout the winter (may be a combination) so again a big thank you to you all.

Dear Sirs

I just want to say how delighted I was with your company. I ordered my lightbox on the Thursday afternoon and it arrived at 10am on the Friday morning! I have only been using the equipment for about 5 days and already I can notice the difference.

I have felt unwell in the wintertime for as long as I can remember but now I am no longer depressed, have far more energy and just feel I can face life again.

Thanks again.

Dear Philip & Beverley

Thank you for your very efficient service I have to say that I have suffered very bad depression - really bad - but since using the lightbox I have been sleeping so much better and I just love it as I can read and study by it. Also, I can see so much better with it when reading. Thanks.

Dear The Sad Light Hire Company,

How refreshing it is to deal with a company through which you can speak to a real person at 8pm in the evening. Your advice and choice of equipment was invaluable.

We are now using the clock and the goLite for just twenty minutes a day. So far- really good. I have given your leaflets to all of my colleagues at work. Can you send me some more.

Dear Philip & Beverley,

I just thought I would write to you to let you know how fantastic the Diamond lightbox has been for our son James. He used to be so lethargic in the past and had difficulty in getting out of bed. Now he can't wait to use his  light therapy for 20 minutes a day whilst having his breakfast. Thank you to your staff for taking the time to listen to me (Even though I was rambling on a bit).

Truly amazing.
