Some items are of very good quality and at really low prices (e.g., swimsuits), other items have turned out to be of low quality or poor material (polyester). Pay attention to the reviews and especially the photos taken by the buyers to get a good understanding of the products. If you follow the specials offers or time offers you can save a lot (If you're not in a hurry, save items to favorites or cart and check prices day by day).

Previous review

I am glad I came across Light In The Box.

I have tried several online websites/Apps and they stole my money. They never sent the items, there is no response to emails and the websites are shut down shortly thereafter.

I am pleased also with the customer service, since I needed assistance and they were prompt and professional.

I am a loyal customer so we will continue to enjoy a fruitful business relationship.

Minas review
June 5, 2024

For my order the 2 items i have ordered were larger than the normal size. In my review posted for the order i mentioned this fact. The response of Lightinthebox was immediate and they offer me fair alternatives to mitigate this, offering to send me the same products at smaller sizes that will fit me for free.
I am very satisfied with their response and alternative options offered to me.
I will continue shopping with Lightinthebox as my experience is very positive.

Decent shirt
June 5, 2024

Product...shirt was of good material
Though i bought the shorts to match...the shirt was more of a deep blue with a silvery hue. Very much different than the black I had ordered but it still kinda matched..

Don't order from here.
June 5, 2024

Ordered 5 dresses. 4 of them are too small. They do not do free returns like Shein. It would cost me to much to send back so they are refunding 40%. OR, They will give you 60% in "Reward" money. But what they don't tell you ahead of time is that what you buy with your "Rewards" has to be at least double the amt of your rewards.
