This is just as advertised.  For such a small lamp it puts off a better light.  There is no glare like a craft lamp I bought with 3x the size of the bulb on this one and 4x the price.  I am thinking of getting another one. It is lightweight and strong enough to stay in place on a tie floor.  Not sure how it will work on carpet, but don't think it will be a problem.  I love this lamp!  It is just like day light! 

Pros: Can't think of any negatives!
Cons: Can't think of any negatives, except your other lamps won't compare to this one!
