I use this at my desk. It sits on the floor and bends over my work area, and does not take up any space on my desktop. It has four brightness settings, controlled by a touch pad at the neck. The brightness is excellent, and you can bend the lamp upward to illuminate a larger area if desired. Excellent bright lamp for reading and writing.

May 22, 2017 - the light has burned out on this lamp. I purchased it thinking it had a replaceable bulb inside which it does not. At this point it looks like I have to throw the lamp out... The LED is supposed to last 30,000 hours (according to a description on Amazon)?
