JHD Led Desk Lamp with Clamp - 10 Brightness Levels, 12" Flexible Gooseneck,Eye Protection USB Lamp - Suitable for Home Office, Reading, Bed Light,Quality Black Metal Clamp Light,Headboard Lamp

It does the job

Perfect for clamping on my sewing machine.

The media could not be loaded. I wouldve given a 5 star if the power source switch was closer to the base of the light, instead of closer to the usb. Another thing I didnt like was that it didnt come with a cube, thankfully I do have usb plugs because otherwise I wouldnt have been able to power it up right away. Other than that I like the 3 settings, and it is awesome that it is dimmable. Overall happy with the light.

Let me tell you about this little gadget that has become the superstar of our household - the JHD Desk Lamp, or as I like to call it, the "Lamp of All Lamps!" This thing is like a personal assistant that takes care of all your reading light needs.First of all, the pros. Price? Check! This lamp is like a steal from a magician's hat. Easy to set up? Oh, you betcha! It practically sets itself up while you sit back and enjoy your favorite snack. And let's talk about the light it emits. It's brighter than my future, I tell you! This bad boy will light up your reading material like it's auditioning for a Broadway show.Now, onto the cons. While this lamp is dimmable, I sometimes feel like it's stuck in a perpetual "not dim enough" limbo. I mean, come on, I don't want to feel like I'm being interrogated by a spotlight while reading my cozy mystery novel. And guess what? It didn't even come with an AC adapter. Nope, just a good ol' USB. I guess my lamp is a tech-savvy minimalist, but I miss the convenience of plugging it straight into the wall.But let me tell you, my kids are absolutely smitten with this lamp. I had to buy not one, but two of them because they couldn't bear the thought of sharing. Now they can read their favorite bedtime stories without having to use my cell phone as a makeshift flashlight or deal with the annoyance of holding an actual flashlight. It's like a magical reading companion that never complains or runs out of batteries.So, despite its quirks, the JHD Desk Lamp has earned its spot as a cherished member of our family. It's a bright, reliable buddy that illuminates our nights and brings a touch of adventure to our reading escapades. Who needs a boring old flashlight when you can have this versatile, quirky lamp by your side? It's a game-changer, my friend!

Works well, nice and bright, use it over my sewing machine, very thin but provides a good light sorce.

The wires broke inside the switch and I ordered another. I took the original one apart and soldered the wires and it works fine now. I now have 2 and will never get any more from this company.

My 6-year-old twins love reading before bed but didn't want to leave their big light on as it was too bright and they'd have to get up to turn it off.These lights are absolutely perfect!They have loft beds so we're able to clamp the light onto their beds and have taped the controller to their bed so it's easy to reach and we always know where it is. This has really helped as they tend to fall asleep while reading so my husband or I have to go in and turn off their lights without waking them.It's been easy to do and they love using this lamp to read in bed. Like any parent, we are doing all we can to encourage their reading so this is great!!

The desk lamp is bright on its highest setting and substantially dimmer on its lowest setting, so that works well. As the seller has mentioned, the neck has been improved and is now more than capable of holding position, and the clamp is definitely strong, both pluses. However, the clamp may be a bit more than smaller hands care to try to squeeze, so be aware of that.But the biggest drawback is the switch. The first problem is that it's a long way down on the cord, much closer to the USB plug than to the lamp itself (see pic), so if you're planning on using this on the headboard of your bed for a reading light as I was planning, you're going to find yourself getting out of bed to turn the thing on and off. I ended up adding a USB extension cord to bring the switch to the headboard, then tucking all the excess cord from the switch to the lamp behind the headboard. That works, but it's a kluge.The second issue is the switch has a BRIGHT blue light when in the off position, which is not a good thing if you're trying to sleep after turning it off. I ended up putting a piece of black electrical tape over the light, and that worked fairly well, but the blue light still shines through around the power switch and the dimming switch. The intensity is substantially less and will work for me, but if you're very sensitive to small lights on your headboard when sleeping, or you don't want to fiddle with electrical tape, this might be an issue.If you're not using this for a reading light in bed then all of this may not matter as much, though it still baffles me as to why the switch would be placed so far from the lamp. That would seem to be an inconvenience in just about any situation.
