"Port & Starboard Lanterns Look Fantastic"

The electric 10" port and starboard ships lanterns in polished brass arrived today safe and sound. Couldn't wait to get them running and they look fantastic! I've placed them in the same room with my polished brass ships clock and barometer to augment the nautical theme. I was particularly happy to see that the supplied 25W bulbs throw just the right amount of light through the colored glass, especially in a darkened room. Couldn't be more pleased. Well done!!

"The Best, Lanterns are just what I needed"

I do not often send a feed back on purchases I buy online. You'all are the best. Not only did I get my product in record time, but it was packaged so so good. If a carrier broke anything in that package they would have to use it for a ball. You'all did a job like no other. The lanterns are just what I needed and the right size.

"Sets the standard for Online Shopping Experience"

Ordered a 13" nautical lantern online. Easy ordering process, arrived via FedEx just a day later (I'm only one state away), the price was good, and the lantern itself is exactly what I'd hoped for. Quality is good, and it arrived well packed. Although great care was taken in packing the lantern (box within a box, padding everywhere) the glass globe arrived cracked due to rough handling. Called Vermont Lantern, immediately got a person on the phone, explained my situation, gave the order number, and they've already shipped out a replacement globe free of charge. Should arrive within the week. This is exactly the kind of online shopping experience I wish was standard across the web. I'd recommend this business to my family and friends. Jon P. - Massachusetts

"Blessings to you!"

In regard to our recent order, I simply wanted to say thank you for the way you so carefully packed everything and also for the two extra miniature lanterns that were included. Such a nice surprise, and my husband and I really appreciate your kindness and care. Blessings to you, Sherri

"Thanks again!"

Hi, I just wanted to express my appreciation for the beautiful lamp you have sent me. It arrived yesterday much earlier that I expected and it is perfect for my boat. Thanks again, Bruce

"Super Service!"

Thanks you SO MUCH for the lightning fast delivery - thousand here have been without power since Sunday morning and this is sorely needed. John

"Incredibly beautiful high quality Lamps"

Hurricane Sandy walloped us big time in New York and Long Island - similar to the licking Hurricane Irene did to you Vermonters last year - but us Flatlanders are a little resilient - but not as rugged as you guys -I'm without power but at least I have a Vermont Casting fireplace insert to keep me warm - and now I'll have incredibly beautiful and very high quality lamps that were fortunately made in India and not China - Well, my dad and I represented National Life for 40 years and I hope to move for the warm summer months to Ludlow to go golfing at Okemo Valley and eat breakfast at the PotBelly - many thanks to all you Vermonters for all you do!!!!!!!!!!

"Dietz Hurricane Lanterns, Brass is Built to Last"

I own many Lanterns but these are my pride and joy, as I say "Brass is built to last"! You can't go wrong when you buy from Vermont Lanterns.

"Great Oil Lamps from a Family Business"

Recently bought a Miners Lamp from Vermont Lanterns & it is a beautiful product! We were so pleased we went back to buy 2 more! Great products from a family business with a great story behind them with unparalleled customer service! One had a leak which they took the time to explain why & assured me it does not happen often its a casting issue. They were more then willing to replace it for me (anything to keep to the customer happy was their attitude). Went to the showroom to get a replacement and ended up buying 3 more lamps & 2 of the pocket compasses. Get yourself one today!
Jeff & Kelly - New Hampshire

"I'm impressed!"

Jeff,
Thank you so much for the fast response and even more for the exceptional customer service. I have been so impressed with Vermont Lanterns from the range of beautiful products to your superior customer care. I will definitely be recommending you to my friends and shopping with you again.
Sincerely,
Tanya

"beautifully made"

Hi Guys - just wanted to tell you how impressed I was with both your
service - the lamp arrived the day after I ordered it - and the lamp
itself, which is beautifully made and very solid indeed. We're buying it to
use on a sailboat and it's perfect. Indeed I think we may need to start a
collection! Thanks again.
Kindest regards

Tonje and Finn Andre

"great service"

Your quick, positive and kind response makes me - well, proud to be a New Englander for one thing. Would you please send a catalogue with the shipment. Can't wait to tell my friends. Also, thanks to the man who took the order. You guys could give public relations seminars. Sincerely, Martin

"how happy we are"

hi Jeff...wanted to leave a message about how happy we are with you service
and product...just super all the way around, and what a difference it has
made in our back yard...so glad i found you, i had been combing antique
and junk stores looking for old lanterns,but the few that i found hardly
worked or were broken...and then i found you and got the look i wanted
with the satisfaction of knowing it was brand new but looked so
authentic...and the prices were ideal,so its a win-win, we'll be telling
our friends for sure, and we already want to get a few more styles to go
around the house as well...thanks for everything. Lynn and Molly C.

"Great products!"

Hi Jeff. We received the 2 lanterns today. They are beautiful. Just the right size for the fireplace mantle. The quality is much better than we have seen at some of the discount home goods stores. You have a great product line. Thanks very much. Paul S Wakefield, RI

"Fastest Delivery ever!"

We could not believe when FedEx delivered our order that I placed on Friday
afternoon to us on Saturday Morning. Thank you for the wonderful service
and we are quite happy with the lamps as I'm sure our Daughter will be when
she takes them to her camp. Have a Merry Christmas.

"Quality of your Oil Lanterns is tops"

Quality, Quality, Quality. The quality of your lantern is tops. Now I have complete confidence in blackouts over the candles I have, and no wax to spill while I move it to another room. I can't say more about your quick and efficient service.
Thank you.

"Customer Service"

Dear Vermont Lanterns, Today I received the globes from my original order. Thanks so much for sending them promptly. I also wanted to thank you for the three bonus wicks - this goodwill gesture is much appreciated. You are a company with integrity and kindness. Again - thank you! - Cynthia

"Anchor lamps in use in Alaska"

Hi Jeff, well so far we are happy with the anchor lamps and have burned it in 40 knots of wind with out even seeing the flame move. the only thing we had to do was put a rubber band around the base of the inner lamp to keep it from rattling out after a long night of being blown around. i think eventialy it would shake enough to allow the inner lamp to fall out the bottom. but it was a super simple fix. thanks a lot and cant wait to get the new port and starboard lamps. Robert in Alaska

"A Very Happy Birthday"

I just had to say thank you for my entire experience with Vermont lanterns. Starting with Elaine who was absolutely wonderful to receiving the order in time for my son's birthday, I was very impressed. along with the order was a hand-written note saying happy birthday with a piece of candy. My son turned 31, but acted like an excited little boy when he saw his lanterns. He is building a log cabin in michigan and this was the gift he was looking for. What a positive experience with this company. I will refer anyone in need of your product.

Thank you again, M Stein

"Michael Santos"

Just a little positive feed back for you all. I am very impressed with the Dietz Blizzard lamp that I ordered earlier this week. It is a beautiful piece that brightens up my room. I am also very satisfied with the extremely reliable service in processing my order and speedy shipment.
I will for sure be doing business with you all again soon!
God bless,
Michael Santos

"Impressed with my new Oil Lamp"

I cannot tell you how impressed I am with my new oil lamp. And even more, with the excellent customer service I received today. When I needed some help with the oil canister on my new oil lamp. I just knew that it would be easy to resolve the problem. Just to let you know: I was referred to your oil lamps through my online sailing blog (sailnet.net). Apparently, one of my fellow-sailors was just as impressed with your oil lamps and customer service. As her posting to the blog reflects, exactly, the experience I have had. I intend to order two of the miner's lamps, for my sailboat. The lamp that I received two weeks ago, is so nice that we found a place for that at home. Be proud. Of the product. And, the customer service, as well. R. Carter Washington, DC

"Tom"

I want to thank you for working with us on the lantern project this year. Everyone seemed to really like them and they really looked nice in the neighborhood.
We will be collecting orders for Christmas 2005 in early March and I will be ready for your shipment arriving in April. This year we will have plenty of lead time and get at least as many if not more to participate.
Thanks again.
Tom

"David Quimby"

We bought from you for Y2K and nothing happened, but now California blackouts are common and the lights go out all the time here. We keep your lanterns in many of our rooms and they have saved the day quite a few times. Thanks for being there when we need you. We'll be buying more lanterns for Christmas presents this year.
Best Regards,

"Tom Rayfield"

I received my lamp shipment today. I can only tell you that I am more than pleased with the VT 19" lamps. I opened one of them and filled it with high quality lamp oil and lit it. It gave a beautiful light, burned clean and there was no smell. The only thing about your product that I am more pleased about is your price range! I received three high quality brass lamps, three extra globes and six extra wicks along with 2nd Day Fedex shipping! That is impossible to beat. Thank you for your excellent service and your fine product. I look forward to doing business with you again. Tom Rayfield Arlington, Virginia

"Beautiful and reasonably priced oil lamps"

I told them how beautiful and reasonably priced your oil lamps are, and that really interested them a lot, for their wives love decorating their homes with brass. My brothers said they hate to have to go and get out their plain glass lamps every time their power goes out in their area, they would rather have some nice lamps that would go with their decor so they can leave them out 'all the time.' Well, I told my brothers what to do, "Go get on line and check them out, you'll love them! I hope you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and are all doing well. Tell Trini Hi for me, and that I hope she writes more about herself and her family. She writes in some ways like Louisa May Alcott did in Little Woman, telling about her family and the things that went on in her life. For me it was very enjoyable reading what Trini had wrote about herself and her family, I do hope she will write more. Concerning your request to use my other letter in your "Comments from satisfied customers" page, I would not mind it at all. Thank you! I have already informed my brothers about your web page, and they said they will differently go and check it out. I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday season now and in the coming years. Take care, God bless. Merry Christmas! Sincerely, Anna Jacobs

"Dan C"

Just a quick note to say how very pleased we are with your products, your people,your service. Ordered lanterns during the evening hours in mid-December. The phone was answered by a WONDERFULLY HELPFUL young lady who was manning the phones from home. Products arrived in a very timely manner, thoroughly well packaged and protected from damage. They were sent on from here to my daughter in Tulsa with equally perfect results--everything arrived intact and recipients were very pleased with their gifts. Thank You!!!!
We will certainly look to you first for any additional needs in this area.
Sincerely,
Dan C.

"Beautiful and Reasonably Priced Lanterns"

Hello.
I just ordered one of your lanterns (Vermont 16inch). I have been trying to find one like that for a long time. I came across your web page while surfing the web for lanterns. You have the most beautiful, and reasonably priced lanterns that I have ever seen. I shall be telling my friends about your store, a lot of them are looking for oil lamps too. I am going to also tell my brothers and their wives about your store as soon as possible, they live in California where the power goes out a lot and I know they would love to buy some of your lanterns. I was wondering if you have any catalogs available, if so I would like to have a few to give to my friends and family. Thank you so much for having your business on the web!

Sincerely, Anna J.

"Thanks so much"

Hi Jeff,
Thanks so much, I have received one of the parcels, they look awesome! Your service has been Absolutely Awesome, from the initial contact to the
final delivery.... My wife will be very, very happy when she sees the
little lanterns tonight.
I look forward to the next parcel which should arrive Monday.
I will send you a picture of it in use on the yacht, maybe you can use it
on the website... You would be welcome to.

If you are an employee then I hope that your employer realises what a credit you are to their business. best wishes and kind Regards Geoff & Jen Australia

"Perfect condition"

Hi Jeff
Your order was delivered direct to my door by the UK postal service. As for smoother, the service I got was great. The product arrived with no problems and in perfect condition. I think there would be a good market for your products over here, and mine is hanging in a pride of place for sure....!

"Super Service" United Kingdom

Dear Jeff, Just to let you know the lamps arrived this morning at 11am, I have un packed them and I would like to say how pleased I am with them. I am looking forward to using these over the coming long winter evenings as I am sure they will all add to the atmosphere in the home. I am sorry I troubled you yesterday with my email, but from experience when some items finally get to the British Postal service, they can have a habit of disappearing into some kind of black hole never to be seen again, but gladly not this time. I would like to thank you and your family for all your help, you have a great web site, your service is excellent and the lamps are very nice indeed, I wish you all, good luck for the future. And I will be glad to recommend you to my friends and colleagues. Once again thank you. Kind Regards Jim S England

"They look and work beautifully"

We received our oil lamps today which is extremely fast shipping- kudos for that. We have filled and tested all three and they both look and work beautifully. We are very satisfied customers and will no doubt be purchasing from you again in the future. Thank you Jeff, for all your help over the phone and for the excellent service.
