Writing for AllMusic, Stewart Mason wrote "Unfortunately, just as Weightless was released in the U.K., Juno Falls' label, V2 Records, underwent a complete restructuring, meaning this fine, likable, and potentially commercially successful record largely disappeared upon its release."
Stewart Mason's review notes that "Juno Falls" was released around the same time as "Weightless" in the UK, but its fate was sealed when V2 Records underwent a significant restructuring, causing this promising album to largely fall off the radar despite its potential for commercial success.
