This lamp is better than I ever expected it to be. It has a remote, and a few brightness and warmth/coolness settings. It makes me think that it’s a light to be used with Zoom or something similar. I purchased 2 because I assumed that it would be rather dull. I now need to return one. The light is so bright, it illuminates my entire living room. A VERY pleasant surprise. I can use the smaller “daughter” light for reading or crocheting and still have the entire room illuminated. Can’t say enough about how pleasantly surprised I am. It’s a good buy.
