Great lamp for students. The lamp is a lot smaller than I had thought, but worked out to be a good thing. My son has so much on his desk that the slim modern design allows it to be out of the way but also contain storage for penspencilsetc. The amount of light can be easily adjusted with a touch of a button, in addition to the ability to switch between coolwarm light. Added bonus is a shut off timer that can be set to 30 min or an hour. My son uses it for task lighting as well as a night light. Definitely recommend and would work great for any student working with limited desk space.
