Customer reviews
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

Customers find the desk lamp superior in functionality, with one mentioning it works perfectly on a 5/8 inch thick bamboo desk surface, and appreciate its cool daylight LED bulb for good lighting. The lamp is easy to assemble and use, and customers consider it good value for money. The build quality and clamp strength receive mixed feedback - while some find it well-made with a solid clamp, others report the plastic clamps breaking and the lamp falling off. The range of motion also gets mixed reviews, with customers noting it moves around well but nothing locks it in place.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2025Color: Jet BlackVerified PurchaseThis is an old-fashioned multiarm desk lamp that will screw into a horizontal table edge quite nicely. I have a 100 watt bulb installed and love it for drawing and reading. It reaches across my table without collapsing, as some other such lamps will do. Happy I bought it! Nice black color and well built.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2025Color: WhiteVerified PurchaseThis is a wonderful lamp and it has provided me with a great deal of excitement for which I am very grateful. When I first took it out of the box, I thought surely this cannot work. The parts fitted loosely and threatened to disassemble in my hands. But I had little choice, this being the only desk lamp I owned at the time and decided to fit it to my desk regardless. That leap of trust was infinitely rewarding. Not only did the clamp fit perfectly, but having a fixed point of gravity imbued this lamp with stability I had not previously thought possible. When I turn it or adjust the height it offers just the right amount amount of resistance. It illuminates my desk at this very moment and I highly recommend it.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2024Color: Jet BlackVerified PurchaseI plan to but more of these lights, they are great. Well built. Not plastic, All metal, and durable, will last a long time, and I figure out how to get it somewhat cheaper, cost half what other places were chargeing for them. Paid only $19.00 for it Great price.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2025Color: Black, ArchitectVerified Purchasethe base does not hold together if you want to move it you can't lift or it will come off. I solved the problem with a zip tie. Also the lamp head has spaces (probably to reduse heat) and I don't like the way that looks. The lamp socket shroud/shade doesn't attach completely or snap into place, and if you try to move the lamp putting force on it, It could come off and need to reattach. more of an old school lamp to me I bet it will last a long time.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2023Color: Jet BlackVerified PurchaseSYNOPSIS
This lamp should be evaluated based on the two distinct functions it needs to serve: (a) provide a secure clamp onto a surface; and (b) provide stable adjustable lighting angles. This garbage singularly fails at both of these criteria. AVOID THIS ITEM.

I had to fight with the crappy clamp for over an hour to get it to provide a SEMI-secure hold. The bell cap on the screw-tight portion of the clamp is cheap and thin metal, which is not SECURED to the clamp! It comes off easily, and that means that the part that is supposed to create a secure hold FALLS OFF when you screw.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2025Color: Black, ArchitectVerified PurchaseNice modern look and good design, except for the slightly loose fitment where the arm attaches to the mount. Not a big issue, that a small shim like a toothpick can easily correct. Glad I chose this. Easily moved to another location with the vice mount. Not at all tacky. I got black.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2025Color: Jet BlackVerified PurchaseWorks as described. I do not have any stability issues with the clamp and move it around quite often. Works real nice with a huge WiFi lightbulb in it.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2025Color: GoldVerified PurchaseCame mostly assembled and is very nice looking but base of lamp is not secure to clamp. When assembling the base of the lamp sits in a hole at the top of the clamp, nothing locks it in place or keeps it attached to the clamp and the fit when it sits in the clamp is loose and wobbly. The lamp works great, I set it up with a smart bulb so I can adjust brightness and warmth, the clamp itself is solid and the knobs to adjust angle and height work great. I wish it was more secure to the clamp.

Adolfo d.Reviewed in Mexico on July 17, 20215.0 out of 5 stars Muy buena Lampara de trabajo y lectura
Color: Black, ArchitectVerified PurchaseLa lampara es excelente, de buena calidad de materiales, muy funcional, de largo alcance, fácil de armar, muy buenos acabados, en fin muy buen producto.
Simon T.Reviewed in Canada on December 5, 20205.0 out of 5 stars Good sturdy articulated lamp.
Color: Black, ArchitectVerified PurchaseThis is the second of these lamps I buy. Used by my girls to read in bed. The first one is used on the lower bunk bed, which my daughter enclosed in blankets for privacy. No heat emanates from this LED lamp, so no risk of fire or burning her fingers when moving the lamp head.
Second was bought for jealous elder sister who is now schooled from home. It swings easily between her bed and her small desk so she can work/read/study with appropriate lighting.
In both cases, the spring system is sturdy enough to hold the lamp head where positioned. No sagging or spring back.
Overall, satisfied with both purchases. A bit expensive, but built well enough to be worth it. Would have liked the option of a screw-in base bracket for wall/bedside mounting, but can make one myself.
