B&M shoppers 'can't unsee' dog lamp that is 'wrong on every level'

One B&M customer spotted an unusual lamp at the retailer, and other shoppers were quick to give their opinion.

The bargain giant now sells £7 "wood effect" lamps designed to look like a dog holding a lightbulb. However, the customer commented on the positioning of the bulb between the dog's paws — stating they couldn't "unsee" it.

They quickly took to Facebook to share an image of the lamp with others. Writing in the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, they said: "My eyes, my eyes. I can't unsee what I saw. Thanks B&M."

The post soon received over 1,500 likes and 'haha' reacts on the social media platform, and almost 400 comments. Users quickly gave their verdict on the unusual product.

One said: "Who on earth thought that would be a good idea do people not inspect these things and voice opinions on these ideas before it hits the shops it’s like they have actually done it on purpose."

"Omg my first thought was wtf had to blink and look again…what were they thinking," echoed a second.

A third revealed: "I bought my friend one. My husband walked in and said "why is there a dog with a lighbulb p***s in our kitchen?". Can't unsee it now."

A fourth agreed: "Omg I said the exact same thing! Nearly bought it as a present for someone but then I couldn’t unsee it."

"Just wrong on every level," a fifth simply said.

However, others felt that there was nothing wrong with the design of the lamp, with some even stating that they wanted to purchase it.

The design of the lamp raised a few eyebrows (Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group)

One shared: "Why do I want one of these!"

"I understand what everyone is seeing but I don’t see anything wrong with it tbh, for a start the light bulb is too far up to be any kind of privates," argued a second.

"Ive got the pup in my garden, lights up really well," one happy customer wrote.

"They are cute," another posted.
