This was a birthday present for my husband, an avid reader, especially in bed. It arrived the day the light he didn't like burned out. He's still thanking me for this lamp... his birthday isn't until next month. We are pleased with the ease of assembly, the touch switch and lighting adjustability. It fits nicely on the corner of the bed without taking up space. Just wish it was maybe five or six inches higher. The base rests on a box or books to raise it high enough over the bed and under his head. It can't be seen so we are de-lighted with the product.
