Reviews of Spotlight Hamilton
J.
Good friendly staff who are willing to assist. A Big store in size and has everything you need. Lots of different counters based in products categories. Ample parking space in front and conveniently located on Te Rapa Road (corner Garnett Ave). You will truly get better bargains than Briscoes and the Warehouse where there are specials. Do pay attention of the brands of products as some of them do not last and when you call the store it goes to a call centre where staff not all that helpful. Highly recommended to visit this store.
M.
Great shop with great range of items, very helpful staff. Cannot give five stars because there is no bicycle parking. There needs to be a bike rack somewhere in the parking lot to make this store accessible to more people.
J.
Good store. Unfortunately prices aren't easily found for products or they are missing. They have great sales and a large selection of baking and cooking utensils etc. They are quite expensive unless you look for items on sale. It can get very busy and the wait times can be long.
M.
Went to look for Curtains. Asked for advice and was directed to Julie. She provided good helpful advice and purchased curtains for the house. We couldn't have asked for better service.
Thank you Julia.
L.
Handy store for all sorts of craft needs. Sometimes things I want are out of stock and sometimes they have heaps. Regular specials and member savings.
M.
Huge store for all sorts of things, from fixing a hole in the shirt up to organizing a party. It sells a variety of sewing machines, cloths and the like. Customer service is decent and nice. It has plenty of parking space. Not too many toys though, so kids may be a bit disappointed.
v.
Wonderful friendly staff, great products, excellent prices. Well set out store
J.
Great customer service. As a guy, was completely out of my depth looking for a Christmas present for a lady who loves crocheting. But the staff were great!
K.
Usually full to the brim with fabrics it's actually very basic atm, most likely covid related that said other stores in town have kept there stocks eclectic.
Hopefully they'll return to normal capacity soon.
A.
Lovely shop, older lady at the fabric department was lovely and showed us what type of netting to get and what would be suitable, will definitely be back again 😊
D.
nice big shop I could shop in there for hours the staff member we talk to was very helpful and new her products :)
A.
Left at the traffic lights is free parking, entrance to spotlight along with a cafe, westpac atm bank machine, salvation op shop located on the main road, you can access it ,by walking up the ramp far left as your facing spotlight entrance. Staff always really helpful when you can't find what you see in the brochure or online.
R.
Love Spotlight for little bits and bobs , everything for people who like sewing to redesigning your bedroom even kid birthday partys are so easy
J.
Good selection, but I'm really not a fan of their sign up required membership for discount, the store also needs some form of map to help you find things - especially when the staff are few and far between.
Z.
This place has so much great stuff for such a good price! Heaps of nice homeware things
B.
Always a great visit, good if you don't know what you are looking for, coz their is something to find and a bargain. nice friendly staff..
E.
Your team click and collect is fab..even though I was a few days late and you were soo busy because of L3 alert ..brilliant service with smiles. Thanks so much 🙏 🙂🙂🙂
A.
Wonderful customer service I'm from Ak have been to this store twice and had excellent service
L.
Another great shopping experience at Spotlight ... great service, smiles on faces and they have a great range of products at good prices.
Their sales are amazing and it really pays to become a VIP member. The only downside for me is that I spend far too much there 😁
Love shopping at the Hamilton Spotlight!
M.
although store was super busy staff were friendly and very helpful.had everything we were looking.
J.
Bought some lovely quilting fabrics I think I am addicted
B.
Great selection unfortunately didnt have what I wanted can browse for ages
P.
Great store, the staff are awesome when getting helium balloons for kids, unfortunately their shelves are a little empty at the moment
D.
Perfect. I found what I wanted after some hard shopping. Ever tried to match a particular purple? No luck but I finally found the right pink which wasn't so easy either. Wearing pink under the purple lace but now to have made for me a pink short jacket.
P.
Full of fabric, cushions, blinds etc. Slightly old school - the floor has an unusual layout and when it us busy there are queues at the check out.
J.
Great you have a sale on so can get some bits for my craft projects. Thank you
J.
Helpful staff in had to resist in my spending. Finished my project so I have to go back again.
D.
Huge shop, they probably have what you're after.
Loads of parking.
Easy to find.
Staff are very knowledgable, helpful and pleasant.
L.
Love shopping at Spotlight,they have lots of bargains, and staff are friendly.
K.
What you'd expect from a Spotlight store. Decent prices on sale Items.
S.
Always have a fantastic range of everything from baking to curtains to craft. Staff are usually very knowledgeable and helpful but the fat I went the last on the counter definitely did not want to be there! Not helpful in the slightest! Would have been a higher rating except for her
E.
Very helpful. Great selection of yarn at reasonable prices
T.
Always friendly, good selection of items. Well organised and visible
T.
Great service, absolutely happy with my online shopping experience...well done guys 😊
B.
Lots of choices in embroidery, sewing and odds and ends.
M.
The shop is a treasure trove and great for browsing however if you’re looking for something specific and need help on the floor it can be very hard to find (and very time consuming).
M.
This place is underrated, staff are a little grumpy but there is a huge range of items to look at and I could spend hours in here
D.
I recently moved to Hamilton, and needed some pieces of decor to finish off my new home. Spotlight was the only store that supplied what I needed, at affordable prices, and of good quality. They look so attractive, and suit my little house perfectly. I have since purchased a few more 'goodies' from them. Thank you so much Spotlight!
A.
When you get to know the layout of your local Spotlight, it's a great place to look around for anything you may need. Most of my time is spent in the wool area but I have also purchased a little crockery.
Usually a tidy shop - until lazy 'pick about' customers feel it's okay to put items they thought they would like, into the wrong shelf. Too lazy, or don't want to go back to where they got it from.
Staff are very congenial. Obviously a shop who work to the motto - 'the customer is always right'.
B.
Great store, may have expensive prices but customer service is excellent and fast track delivery & click&collect response.
Totally recommend!!!!
K.
They have a huge selection of cricut gears. Way more then warehouse stationery.
L.
Thought they would've had more variety of items and material. But to be instead one item taking up 2-3 rows starting to look like the shelves of a supermarket sorry guys I know covid has hit but surely it could have more as their prices are high
K.
Yey changed this review to 4 stars as they now have a great answering phone service a helpful cheery human.
Well done spotlight listening to yr customers
They have a great selection.
The materials are wonderful.staff are doing their best .
however in the craft section one can buy some of these items for a fraction of the price at a $2style store altho the craft selection is minimal.
update went to the store last week to purchase a sewing machine.the manager helped me and advised a brand and where i could purchase it. Going so far to give name address.well done spotlight excellent customer service .
I.
Always a great Spot to visit & take the wife there to buy hobby supplies.
M.
It's my no.2 craft store choice that offers a fantastic collection providing you with everything you need which is why I was there and you're probably wondering why no.2 and it's because it's more pricey than my no.1 craft store.
c.
Great place have a great range of products
A.
Has everything crafts, sewing, linen etc. Limited range of other products e.g. kitchen items. Can get super busy if requesting help, specific cuts or materials.
J.
Top quality and excellent selection of fabrics. Knowledgeable staff.
B.
Call center guy put aside item fir me tonpockbup great service thank you
W.
The material I bought is perfect for the project I'm working on 👍
M.
Always a good experience shopping Herr.
M.
So many great craft ideas and the staff are helpful
I.
Minor repair to sewing machine took longer to find the actual place that will fix it and the girl there was not sure of what she was doing
S.
Curtain maker lady very nice, other floor staff not very helpful..
C.
Lovely store friendly staff was looking for Winter king single Sheets unfortunately none there they are like hen's teeth to find
R.
This store has a great range of craft supplies. However I always struggle to find help when I need it. Checking out is very slow, and the staff seem like they are struggling with outdated systems.
T.
My husband and I visited Spotlight on Sunday 13 June around 9.30am to buy venetian blinds. The store person (female, tall, lovely) from the fabric department was so helpful. She genuinely took an interest in finding out what we were looking for and went the extra mile to ensure we had all of the information we needed. She had good knowledge of the products, was friendly, helpful and we left feeling very well looked after. The other person at the counter was also really helpful as she had purchased the same blinds as we were purchasing. She gave us some good tips. The time that both of them gave us was really appreciated. Its lovely to have such good service. We will definitely recommend Spotlight Hamilton and will be back. He aha te mea nui o te ao. What is the most important thing in the world? He tangata, he tangata, he tangata.
B.
Great range of crafts. Getting a bit pricey tho
G.
Goid shop to buy curtains, decent price ranges.
n.
excellent service the staff are very attentive & helpful . There was a product I wanted to buy that wasn't in store & the wonderful lady helped me order it from the Spotlight website as I didn't have my glasses🙂
s.
Love spotlight great place if you love sewing
B.
accommodated our needs with very good graces thank you
L.
I think it's a great shop for all your sewing needs and manchester plus knick knacks. The only downside is how the place seem disorganized or in disarray with their merchandize, maybe the store is too small for all their products, hence the four star. This place can turn into a Gem if they can make it more inviting as you come in.
R.
Very good service. Will be dealing with again
M.
Love shopping for craft supplies, got a couple of Vinyl Supplies for my Cricut Maker, to do up some signs for a job I was recommended for, and well for my first time experience of actually looking around this place, it was not what I was expecting, and what a great experience it was.
Totally recommend to anyone - Pays to be signed up with them is well to get credit/points on your account, will be worth it after a while.
Register on their website!!!!
A.
I bought a few items online and did a click and collect (1st click and collect ever)... I went into the store a half hour later after the process and went to collect it.... Without my knowledge to waiting until I have to receive a txt for me to collect it...the items that I bought only had 2 left in the store and was worried it would get sold out instantly due to the sales.... With the help of Tracey N who was extremely lovely very helpful and kind. Directed me to Claire the manager to help get my products right then and there.... I was pleased to have my products and leave the store.... I am so impressed with the efficiency staff going out of there way to make this happen.... I will recommend this store to everyone.... Thankyou so much to the team at spotlight 😊
L.
Love the Hamilton branch. It seems to hold a wider variety of art goods than the other Spotlight stores I usually visit.
N.
Home for all things creative. Nice staff. Knowledgeable lady helped me with pattern cutting and bishop sleeve design ideas. Lots of fabric and textiles. Loads of buttons and all the other cool stuff you make your home and yourself what ever you want. Will be back soon.
N.
There was a sale on and the shop was full with customers. The shop looked a bit messy and the aisles were a bit confusing due to the messiness. The shop assistant took really good care of us and shared heaps of helpful tips with us...that was nice.
K.
Big, clean, helpful staff & some good bargains. I enjoyed the experience. Highly Recommended.
B.
Great store, good layout of products and the staff are very helpful
f.

K.
Great store with specials most week. Quality products at reasonable pricing. Special VIP nights shopping. Exceptional customer service. I am highly impressed with Jackie. She is my favourite, very helpful and she offers great service n advice. Thanks team 👍
C.
Had no problems finding what i was looking for.
A.
Always great. Good prices.
S.
Pretty expensive, but they have such an amazing range of stuff - a great place to visit when you need a little inspiration. I'm SO glad to see they're getting new air conditioning as I can still remember visiting last summer and coming close to passing out from the heat. Your staff will be eternally greatful, and now I won't shy away from visiting in summer either. Well done :)
V.
It's was near closing and these ladies were so polite and accommodating, regardless of me and my "Mummy brain mix up" regarding the financing. They stayed after work, to complete my transaction and were just so sweet about it. To those ladies, I thank you 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
D.
Great variety of party & craft related items. Huge store & friendly staff. I visited to get some ribbons & they had different sizes & colors to choose from. Cheers.
S.
I was disappointed as I went to use my 40% off voucher. It was only for full priced items. A lot of the shop was on sale . The album I brought was 30% off so couldn't use the voucher, do the math people. I think it's a ploy just to get people into the shop- not cool Spotlight.
K.
Love Spotlight they have great sales and an amazing product line. I get all my craft needs and household products. Go for a wonder around there store....but leave plenty of time cos it pulls you in and before you know it 90 minutes have gone.
P.
Good was fairly busy but I had a good time browsing and the pleasant young lady serving me brought my details up to date
h.
Love the shop. Often visit as I am a sewer and a scrapbooker plus all of our duvet covers gave come from here. Great quality and get a lot of good remarks from visitors.
A.
I find spotlight a very interesting store for all the haberdashery and craft equipment, materials, even ready for a party! Blinds, curtains, bedding, great parking as well.
G.
Excellent variety of household wares.
Really good if what you need is on special but otherwise it's a bit pricey. Seems they load up the regular retail prices to make the specials look amazing.
Great customer service and almost everything I've bought there has performed really well over the years.
Best ever purchase, out door furniture setting which is 5-6 years old now and going great.
B.
Huge range of products. If they dont have what you need in stock its very easy to just buy on through their website which I had to do on this occasion. Queue at checkout can get a bit long tho.
L.
Great stuff at reasonable prices
S.
Pretty much anything and everything, craft wise here!
T.
A++++ fantastic shop, highly recommended
M.
Good variety of goods if you're into crafts and homeware. Good prices, except on things like buttons and zips, these are quite pricey. Service a bit slow, but very helpful. Just don't try to phone Spotlight, that's a nightmare😶
R.
Not having all stock in at the moment!
Pricing miss leading on shop floor
C.
Was looking specifically for a rug. Was not in stock but did notice some great bed linen specials on my way to the rug section. Staff were very helpful.
R.
Spotlight has a wide range of craft supplies from sewing, knitting, jewellery making to crocheting, cross stitch and so much more.
They also have an amazing range of bedroom linen - particularly a good selection of beautiful duvet covers.
As if that wasn't enough, they have curtains, blinds, kitchen supplies and so much more.
The staff are always friendly and happy to help.
E.
Keep u on I know where 2 get my decorations

J.
Good sales, lots of stock. Always helpful staff around. Just hot some great sheets 40% off, whoop whoop!
B.
Good variety of products but lacking in service. Staff seem to think customers are there to interrupt their chat time.
s.
All home decoration, sewing, curtains, bath and much more. Good variety and best prices
A.
The selection of wool was awesome. Service was excellent. Will happily visit this store again when I'm in Hamilton again.
H.
They are under staffed, poor lady was doing 10 million things at once. Great store great service.
D.
There was a lady sue I believe her name is who helped me pick a fabric and carried it for me and just gave me some of the best customer service I've ever had in my life. We had laughs and a good chat in the small amount of time she spent serving me 10/10 would reccomend
S.
Old fashioned store set up, with old fashioned staff. Does not compare well with newer spotlight stores, but carries the same stock. Good value and things but quite poorly displayed
L.
Great sale prices right now, great home decor, sewing materials, wool, candles and so much more - so love feasting my eyes on all the creative stuff. Worth visiting their stores.
L.
Great place to shop, have so much stuff, nice staff
K.
Good variety, friendly & knowledgeable staff.
Also has a good amount of easily accessible parking.
D.
Always get what I want here even if it has to be ordered in. Great selection of wool. Very friendly helful and obliging staff. Amazing shop for all kinds of craft makings.
C.
A great place to find those items that one can't find elsewhere. Love shopping here. The one down side is they have no customer toilets
L.
Love the experience, so much to see. And the staff are always so friendly, courteous and helpful
b.
our first visit to any spotlight store , but many friends had said go to spotlight for...... but we were not near one at our previous house. we were surprised at the large product range at good prices and especially the extremely helpful friendly staff. a big thank you from the trotter family
H.
Great Deals, big store, got lots of varieties of everything 🛍🛒🤩

Great craft supplies not always the cheapest though, friendly staff

I was happy with Spotlight - I got a Wonderful Q sized Duvet Cover for $18 the pattern will go Beautifully with some Teal coloured sheets that I have had sitting waiting to be used - the colour match is Brilliant - Thank you Spotlight
M.
Was looking for their mondao bakeware but they weren't with the rest of the bakeware stuff but at the back corner of the store which I wouldn't even think to look their.
b.
Just a wonderful place, so much more than just curtains and sheets.
Nothing too much trouble and experience shared from both staff AND customers.
Special thanks to Pat from the 'toon.' She works at the fabrics bit and is something special.
C.
Excellent store to stock up on craft requirements or just browse for inspiration. Also a good range of homewares.
P.
Spotlight was great, heaps of people getting fabulous bargains, no one pushing and shoving. Everyone was shopping at their leisure. Tha staff are very helpful with lovely cheerful smiles. A neat shop to browse in as well. Thank you Spotlight Te Rapa.
R.
Good stock great service
F.
Staff review:
I'd like to give 5 stars for the lovely ladies working hard and constant. On both occasions 2 visits in 2 wks I've taken note of the staff. One staff member was about to step up the ladder. I asked her where I could find macrame rope. She took me directly to the isle. The ladies at the material counters are very helpful and answered my questions with good advice. The ladies at the checkout counters are so nice to talk to while being attended to.
Thank you for the nice chilled cucumber water for customers. I thought this was such a nice thought and perfect refreshing idea.
All 3 stars are for the staff only!
Store review:
Spotlight may have a vast range from arts & craft items to household items and materials - BUT, Spotlight is not cheap! Sure there might be the odd few products that are on sale at times and is a really good bargain when there are specials. Though the very items needed and never on sale are always too highly priced and twice the price than another store selling the same or similar items for up to $2-$10 cheaper and good quality ie: Modpodge, dot tools, fluid paints.
Or there isn't enough of a particular product. Either part stocked with 2 colour options only from a colour range of 8 or just out of stock.
It's obvious these particular needed products are what customers are buying mostly which If I were working there would identify as a most selling product to note a restock list asap before stock runs low.
Products review:
Pros:
Quality is good for the projects.
Cons: Understocked or Out of stock.
High prices compared to other stores with exact or similar products.
D.
Always love enjoying the constant discounts and bargains. They treat their customers well!
A.
Very disappointing visit on Saturday to spotlight.One staff member was extremely rude to me and the other was lovely (clearly trying to make up for her colleagues rude behaviour) and the items i went in to get said instock at Hamilton store on their website but was not in stock when I got there and the lady told me I should have checked online. I said I did and she well it's never right anyway you should ring us...not a great visit.
J.
I found what I wanted, but the store is very messy with not enough staff in the fabric cutting area which happens to be in the middle of the store. I had to ask where to have my fabric cut.
c.
Shop shop shop , I can spent hours there for ideas n pick up stuff that I wanted. Recently bought few items as Christmas gifts , one of them was a table weight* which I think is such a good gift for a friend that entertain a lot.
* Would be good if they have more varieties of the TW.
F.
Went to Spotlight to purchase kitchen net curtains. Was help by staff member. Awesome day.
J.
Excellent range and good prices. Remember to use your Gold Card if you have one for a good discount. There are no Roaming customer services people so you need to be able to spend time searching for what you need.
B.
All staff friendly and helpful e.g. found the missing price on the cushions we wanted.
C.
A quick look at wool department to try to find a certain wool, but not available anymore.
A.
Great selection of yarn had fun choosing all the color's needed for blanket
D.
I always wonder why I come when I end up sesrching for someone to help or waiting ages for a counter to be free/be served. Usually with whiny, nagging children making a scene too. And it's big with lots of stuff but somehow not usually what I'm after. Often leave frustrated
A.
It's okay. The fabrics section has become way better since it has a new manager. The yarns are a bit uninspiring. Pretty standard fare.
B.
Love this place, vast selection of craft supplies and homeware with good prices, fabulous specials. Great helpful staff
J.
Always a bargain of some sort to be found at spotlight. Today was no exception. I went to buy wool, ended up purchasing paint brushes, bamboo cotton yarn bagged in ombre style colours and the wool I needed of course.
J.
Always super friendly staff who are happy to lend a hand when you have no idea what you're looking for
K.
Sadly the craft shelves are all empty, barely any price tags on what is there. Clutter in the aisles was making it very difficult to walk into and out of aisles in the craft section. Its not wheel chair accessible currently
J.
Spotlight was very busy, but checkout ladies doing an excellent job. The shop is over flowing with products which is good, with a lot to choose from.
D.
Some staff not experienced about some products but otherwise nice store.
C.
If you’re into basically anything and everything this is the shop, only downside is, it does look a little dated. No biggie, and nice staff!
J.
My visit to the store was a very enjoyable experience. The item purchased was offered at the most competitive price I could find in Hamilton, whilst the overall service provided by friendly, attentive staff was absolutely first class. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Spotlight Hamilton store, and would most definitely shop here again.
b.
Lots of furnishing goods and a top place for fabrics and craft supplies. Helpful staff and excellent range of fabrics. Excellent parking.
S.
Had great service from Kathy, Lane 4 who helped find curtains and tracks and saved us from buying the wrong fittings.
A.
Great fabric selection
T.
Been going there since I was a kid with my mum. Now I take my grandchildren there awesome plc .they have everything you need.
C.
Great store with wide variety of stock. Hit and miss with staff availability and helpfulness but other than that is always a positive experience.
C.
It was mum's birthday the day we went in, and she recieved a 10 dollar voucher. We redeemed it, only to find the item we brought was wrong, so we took it back for a different item. The item was 10 dollars more with the voucher included but we paid 20 dollars more. This was frustrating and mum missed out on her gift.
B.
I am brand new with sewing so I have no idea what I am doing... I have ventured into making roller blinds... Julie and Jan were great they took their time helping me with material and ideas... you two are the best and I really appreciate your time and laughter... Thank you Julie and Jan... I be seeing you guys soon!!!
J.
My favourite store ever!! Love the sales on yarn, I'm like a kid in the candy shop, husband always prepares himself for an hour visit
L.
Hamilton Spotlight was an eye opener. Way more in their crafts section than Sylvia Park, Auckland. How is that I wonder?!
H.
I came to get a new net I gave the wrong measurements for one curtain 🤭😅🤣 so I guess I'll be coming back
j.
Turns out they don't have lights
A.
Wide selection of materials if you are into dress making or anything requiring fabric. Lots of party stuff and most things you might need for bedroom and bathroom.
L.
Spotlight is full to overflowing - I always ask staff to help and they are always full of great advice.
J.
Always such kind staff
s.
I have been going to spotlight for years now great service
A.
Bigger inside than one expects. Very helpful staff. I was directed to the exact spot in the store and was back on my way in no time.
M.
Great service. Staff all helpful when asked a question 🙂
M.
Lots of bits and pieces which I needed
K.
I was disappointed at how little stock there was in the cake decorating section but this may have been due to extra sales over Christmas period.
A.
Wide range of household items. Has good quality wool and fabrics.
B.
Spotlight have good quality products at reasonable prices. Really love their cushions.
M.
Didn't see any spotting knives, maybe their low on them, maybe that's why they're spotlight
K.
Sooooo busy!! Staff onto it but just not enough of em' when everyone needs assistance but imagine it would be busy af then would slack off. Lotsa selection and stock though. Carpark was manic!!
M.
Helpful staff, good specials at times and a great assortment of foods
J.
Bought my super king bed duvet and duvet covers, bed sheet cover and a warm sherpa blanket! Love Spotlight!
H.
I love this shop especially when they have 40% off! Always purchase our duvet covers there as marvellous selection and great quality that visitors comment on!
S.
Nice and useful arts and crafts quite a variety. Beautiful duvets were marked down at good affordable prices.
A.
Always good to visit to get your crafty stuff. Sometimes you can find the same thing elsewhere for cheaper but overall I love spotlight....
L.
Great selection of fabrics. The lady that served me was absolutely fabulous. She was friendly and extremely helpful and knowledgeable.
J.
They are always helpful when I can't find the thing I want and the place is great for every little thing
m.
Extremely difficult 2 find, even with 2 phone calls for help 2 spotlight, as the front has salvation army, it's around the corner, Google maps is poo direction, phone not much better, 3 calls, and hunting te rapa. . However excellent service in store, 💖
V.
Love this shop, dont tell anyone, everybody will be shopping here. They have an amazing craft section, just awesome.
R.
Great variety, but staff are always busy and run off their feet if you need to ask anything. Helps a lot now they have a price checker scanner.
D.
Love this shop. Great prices. Lots of variety
F.
I knit phone covers for students I work with at school.I do so many I keep running out of wool.I love the multi coloured tools.
L.
Excellent service. Jen from the Hamilton store is so helpful and super friendly and is the go to person for any help with knitting etc🙂
B.
Nice big store with a good selection. Sales bins are great.
J.
