Design & Build Quality

Pros:

  • "This LED desk lamp is slim, attractive and takes up little space."
  • "It fits well between the two desk monitors and I can maneuver it around so it does not reflect on them."
  • "The swing arm articulates with two bendy joints and right now I have mine hovering about 14 inches above my work area."
  • "Love the adjustable arm, easy to make bright or dim, light color (varying shades of warm to cool white light)."
  • "What a sleek looking desk lamp, nice shiny black, it looks flashy."
  • "Very nice lamp that is small enough to just blend into the desk."
  • "Very surprised the quality and function is very nice. Thought it would be all plastic but it’s mostly metal."

Cons:

  • "The material feels fragile and cheap."
  • "I understand that it's plastic...but it really LOOKS plastic-y cheap if that makes sense (and the plastic really shows fingerprints!)"
  • "idk if i was just man handling it but the chord wore after 3 months and now i have to have it at an angle for it to be on."
  • "The problem is the placement of key features and flimsy feeling of another feature seems risky for me to recommend this to many folks."
  • "After 11 months of use the top hinge on the fold down arm is loose, and it folds up when I try to use it."
  • "The lamp bracket is bent, so the light part is leaning."
  • "The lamp looks decent from afar, but the plastic feels and looks quite cheap up close - which is a shame."

Lighting & Brightness

Pros:

  • "It sits on table firmly and consistent lighting."
  • "It puts out more light that my first one, and it still has the multiple types of lighting to suit whatever it is you're doing."
  • "Exceeded my expectations and lights up the area nicely with sooo many options on brightness."
  • "The light that comes off is adjustable and really does light up the room."
  • "Great range of quantity and quality of light."
  • "This is a great lamp for studying at my desk. Love that I can change the color and intensity depending on time of day, mood, etc…"
  • "The wide range of brightness settings it has are great."

Cons:

  • "The brightness is lacking a bit, it's not quite as bright as I hoped, at maximum it's just acceptable."
  • "Bought these for my kids and found out last night that it was really dim. The LED isn't really bright enough compare to normal lamps."
  • "This light is not at all bright at all, it's equal to having a 3 wick candle burning next to you."
  • "The lamp is not as bright as I would like, it needs to be bent down closer to what I'm working on for it to be bright enough."
  • "It also doesn’t adjust very easily! I would return it if I could above all this the main reason is it’s not that bright!"
  • "It was not bright enough."
  • "The light is far dimmer than I hoped for, even on its brightest settings."

Functionality & Features

Pros:

  • "Has a dimmer and timer as well as a plug in for a phone charger."
  • "The light can be turned and/or angled and has 4 light settings (reading, study, relax, sleep) that can be dimmed or brightened as needed."
  • "The USB charger is convenient for recharging flashlights etc."
  • "The lamp has brightness and color (warm to cool) controls, and is easy to position for the task at hand."
  • "Five light colors and five brightness levels gives you a vast amount of combinations to individualize."
  • "The wireless charging works great with my iPhone 14 pro Max in stand mode or lying flat."
  • "The charging stand, while it doesn't work for my phone, is a nice addition to the base."

Cons:

  • "Not happy with this. Lists as comes with USB charging port. Does not come with wall outlet plug."
  • "For anyone who intended to plug it into a wall electrical outlet, please be aware that this light only comes with a USB cable, no wall adapter."
  • "The control panel is pretty small so you may find yourself fumbling a bit, especially at night."
  • "I've yet to find a way to open the housing to adjust the screw, so now it just sits perpetually opened to max and providing background lighting instead of task lighting."
  • "The charger is odd, I got this for my husband, but the charger wouldn't work for his pixel 7 phone."
  • "The lamp had no power adapter and looked used with someone's hair on the bottom."
  • "The lamp’s base is constructed from plastic, and doesn’t seem very heavy or weighted."

Reliability & Durability

Pros:

  • "I use this lamp everyday. Sewing is the reason I purchased this lamp. It’s so easy and the light is totally bright."
  • "Super intuitive to use right out of the box."
  • "I’ve been using these lights about a month, no problems at all. I’m a very happy customer."
  • "Build quality is good and the unit feels solid."
  • "I had a minor issue with one of them (I bought two), the seller responded quickly and courteously handled that issue."
  • "Charges my Samsung Galaxy S20FE."
  • "Your able to charge a phone the same time it’s on."

Cons:

  • "The lamp was good for about two months, and then suddenly the brightest setting stopped working."
  • "The light is starting to flicker which is super annoying."
  • "I feel like it could be brighter for content creation but it’s decent except the fact the cord keeps falling out so easily."
  • "I had to re-write my review because the lamp stopped working today, 02.22.23. I ordered it 01.03.23. So obviously it's not worth the money."
  • "After less than one month the cell phone charging aspect no longer works."
  • "The wireless charging does not function at all, however, on my Pixel 6."
  • "It just stops working after a certain amount of time."
