5.0 out of 5 stars Fine little lamp, September 5, 2009

Purchased this lamp on the prior reviewer's comments, and he is right! It's not sexy or architecturally impressive, but does a fine job with a natural and bright light. What more could you ask for the price? Also, the bulbs are economical, unlike some I've purchased for other "natural light" lamps....

This is a low cost desk lamp that gives you plenty of light, a flexible goose neck, energy efficiency, and a good price. The construction and appearance are nothing elaborate, but appropriate for the price. I give it five stars as a desk lamp in that price range.

It uses a GU24 bulb, which has a special base. Thus, you cannot easily substitute another bulb. A replacement bulb can cost $7-$10 on Amazon, which you might view as a negative. Or you might view it as a positive, since the lamp was a mere $4.74 more than the included bulb alone. The bulb gives you plenty of light, but not plenty of heat.

If you are looking for a lamp that uses this bulb anyway, then it boils down to style vs function. It is rather plain looking, but using it is truly illuminating.

1.0 out of 5 stars Ordered Twice: Both time, broken bulb, January 24, 2010

The first time I received the lamp, the bulb was shattered. (the bulb has mercury, by the by) so I returned it (super easy with Amazon) and received another. Again, a shattered bulb. This time, I just asked for the refund.

next week, I went to target and found a very similar lamp for $5.99.

Lesson learned.
