Reviews of Spotlight Whangarei
J.Great specials and wonderful staff. An excellent experience.
We were looking for a turquoise rug and velvet fabric to make curtains to match the rug.
Wow we found both.
50% off the rug and 40% off the fabric.
A fantastic result
S.Thank you Tracey for your outstanding service ( whangarei store) instead of dismissing me you went out of your way to be helpful! After a frustrating morning you really helped my stress levels!
As for one of the front counter staff.. If I have to wear a mask while you serve me I would appreciate it if you wore yours! Was very angry to see you disregarding the rules!
L.Bit hit and miss with the staff, one was unfriendly and blunt when asked about a particular product on the floor and one was super friendly at the checkout. Always a good selection of products though. Would probably order online next time instead of traveling from Kerikeri to be there in person.
S.If you have time then spotlight is a store to explore, I was after toast bags, you make your sandwich and put the sandwich inside the bag and put in your toaster, nice toasted sandwich and no mess to clean up, the bags can be used over and over, they are from UK in a pack of 2 for about $ 10, you can always go online to check out,
D.Excellent service from all the staff and its a well stocked shop.
M.Love this shop so many projects to do but reality says just one for now.
A.Big store with plenty of fabrics, crafting items, cake decorating supplies, homewares and party supplies
A.Nice store friendly service. Good stock
B.Generally fine. Fabric selection is average, can be really hit and miss for quality, and is often cut wonky. I'd go elsewhere if there were more options in Whangarei, but it's better than nothing. They might be better for other products.
M.So many wonderful bargains today got massive savings on queen sheet sets, $180 down to $49! Also great to see consistent brands, got patio curtains a number of years ago and found same brands for extra accessories today.
E.Most team members are friendly and helpful. Found some good sale price items so quite happy. A nice store with a huge variety
N.Good staff plenty of helpful advice. Easy returns
K.I unfortunately bought ten chair covers online, but they didn't have stock so I had to wait for three to turn up before they could complete the credit. I'll never buy from them online again, but I returned the three covers and the staff completed the credit. The lady I dealt with in person was very happy to help. I only can recommend buying in-store, and in person. Phew, long drawn out drama.
R.Jemma was the most delightful and helpful young lady,willing,happy and nothing was too much trouble. She literally took hours off our shopping today.Couldnt have asked for better service, thank you Jemma.
T.Yes, please. To good variety, though (sometimes a little) reluctant service. Sometimes deeds and patience mean more than words. Since placing this review, I have emailed the owner about the service. I was promised that this would be addressed and have since found the service to be much better than before. There is still, a little confusion about who is next in line as several markings on the floor do not form a good system when only one or two assistants are at the tills.
J.Great place for craft materials.
L.Helpful staff saw I was interested in purchasing curtain tape and advised it was sold by the metre at the counter a lot cheaper than the packet price. Got everything I wanted and joined the membership at the checkout too to obtain a $10 voucher on my birthday.
K.service her always takes forever.but there are only 2 places in Whangarei to purchase haberdashery so you don't have much choice
N.Awesome bargains when you're there at the right time 😎 Lots to look at, check it out 👍
G.Was able to get some wool that I needed
G.The lady that served me today was so friendly and helpful. I really liked talking to her. Thanks Spotlight for your service. ❤
D.Excellent service.
Eggs Benedict with generous portions of salmon blocks (covered in pepper chunks not thin sliced clean salmon). The toasted muffin/bread underneath was light & crispy, not heavy. Good compliment to the sweetcorn & avocado mix on top with salmon and eggs on that. Tables inside had plenty of light and didn't feel squeezed up to the other tables. Once the chills off the air there's some outdoor tables as well.
J.Lots of interesting useful stock but......staffing ratio @times too low meaning longish wait for help/checkout. Some ambiguity in pricing method during 'sales'
D.Great selection of curtains and blinds to choose from for a great price. Also love the great range of bed linen, sewing gear and craft ideas. Recently brought a helium balloon for an eightieth birthday for a small price. Great, helpful and friendly staff.
N.Very helpful staff, got everything i needed
J.Wonderful. Friendly, professional staff, excellent prices and great quality homeware. Bought bedding and things for the kitchen, very impressed. With VIP discounts even better.
C.Super helpful and friendly staff. Had everything i needed in stock, couldn't be happier
J.Had just what I needed. Pleasant service.
M.Great range of bedding sheets and duvets, sewing materials and craft resources, tools and accessories. Good and moderate prices sprinkled throughout the ranges.
Easy level parking close to wheelchair-friendly shop entrance.
Enough staff on duty to ask for help. We didn't find 'light-boxes'. Helpful, friendly and knowledgeable team members. Sufficient cashier places open that no checkout waiting needed.
M.Great sale & customer service was fantastic!!
A.Great customer service & helpful to find the best buy for my money. Only 4 stars because I feel the store is very cluttered, may need a bigger premises or cut back on some lines
J.Lovely store great staff
N.I LOVE this store! It has EVERYTHING! Great prices! and great service! The associates are always so willing to help, and they know so much!. Rarely do they have to confer with others to confirm their price quotes, product availability or whatever. They offer advice on color and fabric types, according to my description of how I am using the fabrics, and even give opinions, when asked, as to what they recommend. They make suggestions regarding which type of fabric might be best for my purpose and even supply small samples for me to take home and think about. This also applies to any product I am considering from crafts, to blinds, buttons, sewing accessories, pillows or anything available, and believe me, there are many useful and fun things to chose from. It is such a pleasure to just walk in to a smiling crew willing and eager to be helpful. What would we all do with out SPOTLIGHT!!! You guys just keep on keeping on!!! See You soon! Nina Knight, Russell
P.Need these stickers on my mini for the pork pie run in March . Wasn't a problem they were made & on the car now I'm all set to go thanks again 😀
W.Great selection of various products, fairly priced, professional and helpful staff.
N.Selection is good. Full on branch.
Unfortunately checkout is always taking so long. I had a feeling the "long chat" is the part of the service that staff are really proud about. Honestly had an impression - I am in a club where sawing ladies having there social life. And there are me - behind them, wasting my time trying to buy something and go.
If you are in a hurry - go to just a shop. Not a community center Sportlight.
P.Well stocked.Good covid protocols.
A.5 stars Spotlight staff for much improved customer service. For good quality products for the home I always find what I'm looking for. Spotlight sales always present the best opportunity to purchase a wide variety of good quality products. Worth a look at any time if ypu delight in browsing. Crafts, knitting/crochet/sewing/bedding/homeware, but take a look they have a diverse stock.
C.Tons of fabric, staff were friendly,, plenty of free parking, was able to find material I wanted on discount which was nice.
S.A lovely shop but l asked about a fancy dress outfit. They were going to check the next day and let me know. Still waiting.
G.I didn't find all what I wanted, but the staff is very helpful :-)
A.Large selection of homewares, fabric and craft supplies. Good parking. Staff are scattered and their are not enough of them, they all look stressed.
R.Huge selection, great prices.
G.Friendly service. Helpful staff.
Isles are often blocked or width is compromised with bins sticking out.
Always something on sale or in clearance.
I personally would like to see more acrylic yarn. And yarn sales
C.Tons of fabric, staff were friendly,, plenty of free parking, was able to find material I wanted on discount which was nice
R.Great Shop for everything to do with sewing stuff and etc crafting knitting material just fantastic knic knacks YES everything a wonderful woman needs.
My friend and I were making a quick visit
to gey a few thing's. Great place for people to peruse around and have a look. Even MEN !!!! 😍 .
I.Such an excellent stockist for home crafts, quilting and art materials. Also a great range of curtains, poles and blinds.
L.I had to order a house lot of curtains. The process was very simple as I left them the window plans and they worked it all out and ordered them in. When I collected them, they applied the sale discount at the time of the order even though the sale had finished. The staff were very friendly and made it all enjoyable 😁
R.Just as you would expect a spotlight to be. Fabric, crafts, haberdashery, housewares, bedding etc. Helpful staff. Lots of parking and disabled access. Have good specials, it is worth becoming a spotlight VIP - as you get specials on items that are not on special.
C.Great variety and good specials and deals. But it is very difficult to get around this shop with a trolley, I actually saw one lady today with her trolley stuck on a display! Also took a long time to be served.
E.Variety in store quite comprehensive, & prices right. I am interested in knitting and there is plenty of variety in wool at reduced prices, but variety/choices of knitting patterns are poor. Otherwise a good store, centrally located.
