What is the Kmart cherry lamp?
The Kmart cherry lamp features a playful cherry-shaped glass design and is the kind of novelty piece that adds a little personality to a bedside table, shelf or desk.
When will the cherry lamp be available?
The reaction to the Kmart cherry lamp has been very positive online, with one commenter saying, “Omg cute” and another declaring, “Ok I need one of these.”
But with that excitement came a wave of frustration from some shoppers who were unable to get their hands on a cherry lamp. The comments section of a Kmart Instagram post was full of comments like, “How long until the cherry lamp makes its way to the store?” and, “No point looking. They’ll be out of stock yet again.”
The good news is, Kmart is working very hard to get more cherry lamps into stores.
A Kmart spokesperson said: “We’re continuing to see strong interest in ambient lighting, as customers look for simple ways to add warmth and personality to their homes. The cherry light has quickly become a customer favourite, with its playful yet chic aesthetic capturing attention both in-store and online.
“We’re also seeing strong excitement around the new water ripple light, which has already started to make waves with customers, alongside the jellyfish ambient light and chilli light.”
“For those who missed out on the cherry light, we’re pleased to share that it will be restocked in stores and online from mid-September, giving customers another chance to get their hands on one.”
What a stylist says about the cherry lamp
Nonci Nyoni is an interiors and props stylist and visual artist. She says these lamps are perfect for popping a splash of colour into your home.
“People are embracing their playful selves, and these lighting pieces are the perfect (and easy!) way to have a little fun with their decorating,” she says.
“It’s all about not taking ourselves too seriously, and who doesn’t love a pop of colour to brighten up a room!”
What about the chilli light?
Kmart has another playful glass light currently available: the $20 Chilli Light. It has a similar novelty feel, with a chilli-shaped glass design that makes it more of a statement piece than your average table lamp. It matches the cherry light on price and general vibe, making it definitely worth a look.
It’s currently in stock online, giving you another option while you wait for the cherry light to return.
Where to buy the Kmart cherry light
The Kmart cherry light is $20 and is available in store and online. The Kmart chilli lamp is available to purchase online and in some stores.

A squeezable soft-touch silicone lamp shaped like a fish-style soy sauce bottle, with four colour settings (three white light levels plus a rainbow mode). It’s USB rechargeable with a 30-minute timer and around six hours of light per charge — more of a playful desk companion than a straightforward table lamp.
A soft silicone strawberry-shaped night light with touch-dimmable control across three brightness levels, aimed more at kids’ rooms and gifting than as a serious bedside lamp. USB rechargeable, with overcharge protection built in.
