Love Ott lights

I love Ott lights! The light they emit is perfect for reading, crafts,etc. Easy on your eyes. Worth the extra $

Perfect for a small condo

This light is large enough to give enough light for the smallest project yet small enough to fit in my small condo. Storage is a dream when I am not using it. I had a much larger one from Ott and it eventually died. This one is sturdy, was easy to assemble once I received it and waspackaged well so it did not come damaged. I would but it again!!

Perfect Crafting Light

This is my 2nd OttLite floor lamp. The 1st, also purchased from Joann, lasted more than 20 years of nearly daily use! It provides excellent light for my crochet and bead projects and is the perfect height while sitting. Joann has always provided good shopping and shipping service; I prefer to come here for my crafting supplies. Highly recommend.

Great lamp option for a studio

This lamp provides good light. I really like the adjustable gooseneck feature. It is light enough that I can drag it where I need it in my studio. I like to work with two direct light sources and this is a great option.

Just what I was looking for.

Everything about this OttLite is wonderful, from the design to (obviously) the light! I purchased it for my sewing/craft room, but it ended up in our living room because it is so useful and unobtrusive. Guess I'll have to order an additional one for my sewing/craft room!

OttLite 18w WingShade Floor Lamp

The OttLite 18w WingShade Floor Lamp has made my sewing and quilting easier. I keep it in my sewing room and move it to different areas for sewing at my sewing machine, or to a table for cutting quilt pieces, or to my ironing area. The direct light makes my fine, delicate tasks more visible and easier to do with better outcomes.

Floor lamp with a stripped out connection

The lamp works and has very nice light for my desk but the lamp came in 3 pieces. The piece where the adjustable head connects to the pole, is stripped out and does not tighten. I have been working on finding a way to place screws in it to keep it from falling apart. I wasn't planning on having to fix it. I placed a screw through it and hit the wire. Now, I'm rewiring it. Very disappointed!

[Rewarded Review] OttLite - Floor Lamp

I purchased this floor lamp as gift for my wife to replace a broken existing floor lamp. My grandson assembled this lamp in a short time frame and said it was not difficult to put together.

Great product, but miss the swivel shade.

I purchased the Ottlite 18w WIngShade Floor Lamp. I give Ottlite 5 stars for their products, since I love the full spectrum light for projects. Unfortunately this one stopped working right away, so I had to return it. (Never had that problem before). I did miss being able to swivel the shade upwards or downwards, like my previous model. This one only faces downward. I had trouble getting the lighting fixture aligned over the base in the 'safe zone' (for steadiness). It worked best when I intentionally positioned the cord (where it comes out at the bottom of the post) so that it faced OVER the base, not away from the base, to the back. I'm using a desk model Ottlite that I already owned, in its place, and put it on a stand.

We can see again!

We had a lite just like this but it lasted so long that we forgot where we bought it. Finally after 2 moves the arm broke. I was delighted to fine it at JoAnn's . This one is even better because of the black color. The adjust ability works very well with two people using it. The brightness is perfect for reading the morning news paper.

We have owned one of these for many years. A couple of years ago the switch went bad and I figured how to work around it. earlier this year the bulb went bad, we looked and they not only were hard to find, they are expensive. We found out we could order online through Home Depot, a complete lamp, and we were very pleades with the experience.

As mentioned in at least one other review, the balance is totally off with this lamp. As long as ...

As mentioned in at least one other review, the balance is totally off with this lamp. As long as the lamp portion is perfectly parallel to the base, it's pretty much okay, but if it's swiveled even the least bit the whole thing falls over. Also, the threads on the pole portion started wearing out within the first couple of years from repositioning the gooseneck and they finally failed altogether so that the upper portion will not stay attached to the lower portion. The bulb broke when it fell apart the last time, so it's going into the trash and I'll look for another one that might last a little longer.

Bad purchase

I purchased this to replace an old model. This light is bright. The problem is that the base is too light weight for the curvature of the arm. The arm and head of the lamp do not adjust well. The instructions show the lamp has a very limited range of movement. This is not shown in the online description. If you bump the arm or the head of the lamp can go wobbling and tip over. This is all because the base is too lightweight.

I have had several ott lites over the years. They are an excellent product and the one I just ordered met my expectations completely. It was the lowest price I found and that's why I ordered it from Home Depot. Even with the lower price it is just as excellent as others I have paid a higher price for. And I expect this one to last longer because I have learned not pick it up by the goose neck. It was delivered very promptly with no problems whatsoever.

Awesome lighting!

I purchased 2 of these. One for me and one for my mom. These are so awesome. The lighting is perfect. I have a hard time crocheting with dark yarn, and this lamp provides a great amount of light. I absolutely recommend getting this lamp. My mom loves hers too. She reads a lot and it is perfect for her with her having vision problems. Highly recommend!!!!

This is a good basic floor task lamp. The goose neck allows the light to be moved up and down easily but if you want to move it side to side or to twist the lamp head to adjust the shield you really have to hold the goose neck firmly with one hand or you will end up twisting the pole in the base. The lamp has a simple on/off toggle switch and there is no way to dim it. If you are using it beside a sofa or normal height chair, your eyes may be lower than the lamp so getting it positioned for your task without having the light shining in your eyes might take a bit of maneuvering.

Love this lamp. Everything I was looking for and more. Easy to assemble and you can set it to the right or left of your chair or sofa depending on how you choose to put the base together. I was limited with the selections I had in another "big box" store so was VERY glad to have found this light here at Home Depot online. I first thought it might be a little short but it just comes over the top of an easy chair and, with that flexible neck? It makes for the perfect reading light. Very easy on the eyes. Nice, warm glow.

I was looking for a lamp to use for a couple of my saws. A band saw and a scroll saw. I wanted one I could move around. Not many made that are high enough but this one was. It is bright and easy to set in place with the gooseneck. It stays in place near the saws. Because it is not attached to the saw it also does not vibrate or shifts during my sometimes long work times. I saw one at another demo and decided to get one for myself. I do wish it had a magnifier attached to it to make close work easier. But I will enjoy this bright light for a long time. I recommend it to most anyone. i think I might add a wood block to the base with some nonslip material just to raid it even higher for my band saw needs.

Recently I needed two OttLite floor lamps for a quilting project that had gotten behind when I moved. A large quilting project had to be moved from a site that was in need of repair. My friends and I moved the quilting frame to my nearly empty living room in the new place and these lamps saved the project! We were able to redirect the light as needed with no problem. They served four quilters at once, and we made our deadline! Excellent light, as I already knew since I have two table/desk OttLite lamps! I ordered the floor lamps online, and they arrived quickly by the date projected. Very easy to put together, just had to attach the base and it was ready to go! I am 74, and these lamps are really super for my needs. The lamps are wonderful for everyday too. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing good light on your work or reading material.

Exactly what I wanted in a lamp for work at an art/drafting table

This is an excellent lamp for the price. I wanted a movable floor lamp for my art table that had natural light. I don't like the kind that clamp on the table. Because it's a floor lamp, it can move around when I do, if needed. However, BEWARE of ordering a replacement bulb at the same time, because the bulb does not match the lamp. Better to buy the replacement bulb separately and make SURE you are getting the right bulb. Staples was great about refunding, though--no problem.
