I like the design, sturdy and easy to assemble. The reading lamp is nice because it's mounted higher up, works great over a standing desk, and can still be adjusted lower. Main lamp puts out good light up top. The LEDs themselves are a little odd, there's a kind of strobe effect which some may find annoying. And as others have noted, the dimmer works but doesn't go as low as you might expect, it only really has 3 settings, medium, medium high and high.
