I have kept them in the nursery. The best thing is it comes with the socket, so it can get many things functional like sound machine, bottle warmer and electrical pump. Plus it has 2 bulb settings, so if you just want a dim light during night then turn on just the bottom one, for brighter turn on both. It doesn’t come with bulb, so we purchased Sengled bulb which can function with Alexa. Hence we don’t need to physically go to baby room to turn off the light. I guess it will help in making sleeping routine easier.
