Bamboo is a popular material for making many products such as furniture, kitchen items, and even bedding. Bamboo is fast-growing, sustainable, and can be a good alternative to plastic. (My family even uses bamboo toothbrushes, which can be tossed in our compost bin when they wear out.)
Aldi sells various bamboo products in its middle aisle from time to time, including an electric grill with bamboo accents and a French press with a bamboo lid. The grocer also occasionally sells bamboo plants to add to your houseplant collection.
The latest bamboo product to hit Aldi shelves is a pendant light. It looks a lot like some bamboo pendant lights that IKEA and Wayfair sell, but you’ll pay less for the Aldi version.
What We Know:
The 2023 model.
The CASALUX Bamboo Pendant Light (Product Code: 708407 in 2023; Product Code: 830063 in 2024) cost $39.99 in February of 2024. That’s $10 less than the $49.99 it sold for in 2023, when it was sold under the Huntington Home private label. That’s also less than the IKEA bamboo pendant light, which cost $60 at the time of publication. It’s also a lot less than the Wayfair bamboo pendant light, which cost more than $200 at the time of publication. This Aldi light looks a lot like one Amazon sold for $49.99 at the time of writing.
This light is an Aldi Find, so it’s only in stores for a short time. Each store receives one shipment, and after that sells out, they’re gone unless Aldi decides to bring them back at some later date. Aldi does not offer online ordering for products that are not in stock at your local store.
Here’s more information about the light, according to Aldi:
- Plug-In or Hardwire
- Includes light bulb
- Natural bamboo wood with a woven texture adds a warm touch to a ceiling light fixture
- Dimensions: 16.5″ Dia x 12″ H (that’s 3 inches shorter than the 2023 model)
- Cord length: 180 inches
What We Don’t Know:
We haven’t purchased this light, so we don’t know how easily it installs or how well it works. We write open threads so readers can talk about Aldi products.
Have you purchased the Huntington Home Bamboo Pendant Light? Tell us what you think in the comments below.
Yes, I bought the bamboo pendant light, I bought five of them for my salon that was destroyed by weather i last winter. i did not notice at the time that only two were hardwired, the other three were plug-ins. I could not use the plug-ins. Therefore, I returned them to the store. I need one more hard-wired, bamboo light. I cannot find it any place! Please help me if you can! The two lights that I have installed are simply gorgeous!!!!! I could use two or three more, but I really need one immediately!!!
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!
If you can’t find it in stores, you’re probably out of luck, unfortunately.
