## Description

The Globe Electric Architect 28" Heavy Base Spring Balanced Swing Arm Desk Lamp is an ideal option for any home office desk lighting. The top of the spring-loaded swing arm is easily adjustable, stretching to 28-inches at its tallest, to direct light wherever you need it the most. The bottom half of the body is nonadjustable and is beautifully designed with a decorative spring, while the long cord allows you the ability to place the light anywhere you want regardless of where your wall socket is located. The large rotary on/off switch is conveniently located at the top of the lamp shade for quick and easy use. This piece requires one 60W A19 E26 base bulb (sold separately).

Review: Perfect lamp for my painting desk. It’s tall and it gives an overhead light, which I like. It’s stylish and the rounded switch on the top of the lamp is very original. I have the black one, but the red is striking too.
Review: Es una lámpara que vale mucho la pena. Bonita y elegante y alumbra muy bien de noche para trabajar leer o para adorno. Combina muy bien con estilo clásico o moderno y es hermosa. Compré la que tiene base y no me quejo, buenos acabados, gran soporte y puede mover el brazo y la parte del foco para mejorar la visibilidad. Varios mese de uso y esta como el primer día. Solo el tornillo de atrás donde se agarra la base se mueve un poco pero no le quita estabilidad. Una gran opción para oficina o estudio.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this lamp weighted at the bottom so it doesn't tip over easily?**
A: As many of the reviews have mentioned.  The lamp has two screws that prevent the joint at the base to articulate - i.e. it is fixed.  This is for a good reason because if you remove the screws, as I did, and try to move it more than slightly forward, the base will no longer support the weight and will tip over.  So, if you leave the lamp as is, without removing those bottom screws, then yes, the base should work fine.

**Q: Does it use a regular e26 base light bulb**
A: Yes...but I used a E26 led light bulb. I wanted a LED lamp, but not at the price, so I just used a LED bulb.

**Q: Is the base heavy?**
A: the base is heavy enough to provide stability without being unliftable....

**Q: What color is the cord?**
A: depends on the color of the lamp. i order white lamp, so my cord is white.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by I***I on 16 March 2017*

Fantastic. Very good quality. Perfect for so many uses. Reasonable price and I would recommend it to anyone. I read some negative reviews and the issue is that at one time this was a different fixture. If you got the old one with an external clamp, I feel your pain. I got the new one which looks exactly like the picture shown and is very high quality. I bought a second one just recently because I like it so much. Assembly is simple: 1] Install two springs by hooking one end of the spring over the bottom spring holder (located on the bottom part of the upper arm), then stretch the spring and hook it over the top spring holder (located on the top part of the upper arm) and release to create tension. There are two springs, so do this for both the right and left sides of the upper arm. 2] Unscrew the clamping screw from the bottom stem of the lamp, then screw it back in place with the lamp stem attached to the base stem. 3] Install the lamp cover by matching the beveled slots, insert 1/2 inch then rotate clockwise 1/2 inch. The lamp shade locks in place and can be removed at any time by reversing that operation. I put a 100 watt equivalent LED lamp in one and a 60 watt equivalent LED in the other one. I have also put an LED grow light in one for a while to start my baby herbs and pepper plants. This fixture will hold pretty much anything you want to put in it, but if the lamp is large and/or omnidirectional, you may omit the lamp cover/shade. My 100 watt LED bulb is 17w 120vac 60Hz 136mA 1600 lumens and is UL Listed. You could put an old analog light bulb in it, but I would stay at 40 watts or below. You could also put a CFL bulb in it, but I would stay at 60 watts or below, 75 watts being the upper limit. I suggest LED bulbs. The socket is called A19 in the United States (metric A60 for European), which I believe is the most common socket. CFL or Compact Florescent Lamp is the "curly cue" "new bulb" that replaces the old incandescent light bulb. I do not recommend those because if they break (and they do) they have harmful chemicals in them. If you use this light where children or animals can be, I would not suggest using CFL bulbs. LEDs are the "new bulbs" not CFL. CFL was a temporary solution to a bigger problem. LEDs are a better solution. Some people complain that LED light is artificial, but the technology is getting better, so be on the lookout for better more natural light producing LEDs. Also, the cost is higher, but they last much longer, so in the long run you get more bang for your buck.
