This light is EXACTLY as advertised and though arrived unassembled it was easy to set up ByRobert A. Dulane yon September 22, 2017. We bought this for behind my wife's chair so she could knit/crochet/tat while I watched TV and the light would not bother me. She LOVES this light.She requested one (a brand name I cannot remember) but I talked her into this cheaper (by price) Lightspan and as I said she loves it, so much so we were just discussing yesterday getting one for her sewing/craft room. This light is EXACTLY as advertised and though arrived unassembled it was easy to set up; less than about 5 minutes. it is sturdy with a heavy base so it cannot be knocked over. The light is bright with different brightness settings by holding the switch in. In addition, the light is daylight which for my wife's purpose nothing less will do. I HIGHLY recommend this lamp and expect to buy another soon.
