At first glance, this Collins floor lamp presents a sleek transitional-style room accent with an off-white linen fabric shade, brushed steel swing-arm and base, and handsome cherry wood support post. Surely, a nice addition to a desk, reading chair, or sofa. But turn it on, and the technologically-savvy VisionSaver by OTT-LITE reveals carefully engineered, eye-friendly illumination that mimics the power of natural daylight in superior detail definition, clear contrast, and accurate color rendering. The low-heat, low-glare 25-watt bulb is also much more energy efficient than standard incandescent bulbs, lasting up to 10,000 hours without replacement and measurably reducing greenhouse gas emissions by using less power. For increased precision, an achromatic reflector inside the shade helps to direct light just where it's needed. The lamp measures 58 inches high and the shade diameter is 16 inches. A matching table lamp is sold separately. --Kara Karll

Form Meets Function
»
I have owned two Ott task lamps for the past several years and so I was already familiar with the benefits of full spectrum lighting. I have found them to be indispensible for close work such as knitting and crocheting and they're a sheer delight to read by. The pure, clear no-glare light that they shed is easy on the eyes and makes any task more pleasant.
Much as I love my task lamps, they're practical and utilitarian, not a thing of beauty. When I went looking for a lamp to brighten up our living room, I almost discounted Ott because the ones I had seen were spare and rather severe designs and I wanted something with a little more flair. And then I saw the Collins floor lamp on Amazon. It combines all the wonderful features of an Ott lamp with an attractive style that looks perfect with our furnishings. I'm in love!
