Worth it!! It's the perfect lamp for my desk and just what I needed. For those who aren't sure which bulb to get, I would recommend nothing over 40 watts. Ideally you should get an edison bulb that has the amber color tone on the bulb glass. I tried swapping with one from a different lamp and it was the perfect amount of light. 

For the charging, I have tried both of the USB ports for an iPhone and Android. It seemed to charge decently enough for my needs. I also was able to use the wireless charging. My phone (Razer 2) has a case, but it was still able to charge through it. It wasn't as fast as wired charging, but again, enough for me. 

Note: there is a short delay after plugging in the lamp to power it on the first time. After that, it's fine.
