Verilux SmartLight Natural Spectrum LED Desk Lamp - Adjustable Gooseneck - Reduce Eyestrain & Fatigue - in-Base USB Charging Port

I thought I was just replacing the old Verilux lamp that finally stopped working, and I was disappointed to see that the neck attaches in the middle of the long end instead of at the short end like my old one. But hey, this lamp is so much better than the old one, and it turns out that the position of the neck is not a problem. I like that the base is smaller; it turns on very easily by just tapping a dot on the base; the variable and easily adjustable brightness (6 levels) is nice; it has three colour tones, which I only looked at briefly but are easily adjustable, then went back to the one it started at and have not bothered to change it; the light fixture is covered (probably not replaceable); and there is the built-in USB charger, which I have not used. Also, the power cord detaches from the base, maybe useful if it needs to fit through a small opening, as the 2-prong plug is quite large. The neck adjusts up and down; I don't think it twists.

This is definitely and by far the best desk lamp I've ever owned. I use it in my home office. I've had their Verilux desk lamps before, and every time a daughter would go off to college, I found that they always have wanted to take my Verilux lamp with them to college. So, this is the third Verilux I've purchased for myself since the two earlier Verilux lamps that I've owned became my daughters' desk lamps throughout their college years and afterward. The Verilux lamp has a clean uncluttered look with modern contemporary styling. It has a nice, flexible goose-neck that allows the user to easily adjust the head if the lamp and location of the light. The light is very easy on the eyes. The lamp base also has an integrated USB charging port. The entire lamp is very well made and well-packaged for shipment; In my opinion, it is perfect for desk-area lighting and emits plenty of light for the working area of a typical desk. It provides a very comfortable white light that is perfect for reading and overall eyesight at the desk, no matter what the task. It turns on and off with the touch of a finger, and can similarly go to brighter or less-bright lighting, also with the touch of a finger. Where you need to touch your finger for those changes is clearly marked and visible on the lamp's base, and quickly becomes instinctive. When I ordered my most recent Verilux lamp earlier this week, it was via Amazon Prime and it was received by me the very next day after I placed my order. I'm very happy with my Verilux desk lamp and I'm a loyal, long-term Verilux customer.

I am so happy I found this light. I am a cross stitcher and this lamp is perfect for my needs. It is lovely and bright which reduces eye strain and makes it easy to colour match. Since a lot of the patterns I use are PDFs, I love that it has the USB port which allows me to charge my tablet while I am working. Sadly, after about 9 months of use the light started to randomly go off if the power cord was moved. Sometimes it would turn right back on when I touched the power button but other times I could not get it to turn back on at all. I decided to reach out to the company on the off chance that they might be able to help me. What a great experience. I heard back from them within a few days and after a couple of emails back and forth they sent me a replacement lamp. I was impressed by their professionalism and their honest desire to be sure their customers are happy. Thank you Verilux!

I decided to take a chance on this lamp for two reasons: The Ott light series are much more expensive and This lamp is a perfect fit for my art desk and drawing. It is lightweight, compact, simple and stylish. It has touch of the finger brightness (LED) control and even a color control : bright white, golden, and rosy - all very subtle but good for working in different mediums. It actually has a USB port on the side. The gooseneck is very flexible, just wish it were about 2 inches longer. Long plug-in cord, so I did not have to mess with exrtra cords, etc. There is no way to change the bulbs as it is a sealed life-time light. I am thrilled with this light. Reasonable price and all the features I could want in a small task lamp. I say task because it is so efficient that it could be used for artwork, embroidery, jewelry-making, lettering, quilting, and any handicraft/art project that requires bright (yet soft) light for close-up work! The company has come out with a wonderful product. Thank you!

It is a great light. I have it tucked in my sewing machine cabinet. I like that I can adjust the brightness of the light, pull the neck to illuminate what I need, and that I can also plug in my phone to charge.
