Great for reading
I needed a lamp to put beside our couch in our bedroom that wouldn't take up much room.  This fit the bill perfectly.  It's got great light to read and stitch by (one of my hobbies is needlework).  The base is weighted so it doesn't tip easily, but the lamp is light weight enough for a small person to move.  The cord is just long enough to reach the plug behind the couch, so there's little chance of tripping over it even while vacuuming.
