Not very sturdy
»
Took the lamp out of the box and had to insert the halogen bulb (was not in place as shipped). Placed the lamp on the desk and the counter lever gear broke off of the stand. No stress applied but the gear was stripped and the bar holding it in place was broken. There was no apparent damage to the box. Frankly, for the price of return shipping it's not worth paying for an exchange. You can definitely do better .... AVOID THIS PRODUCT!!!!

Bright Light Big Impact
»
As a Halogen light the unit is unquestionably bright. That is one of the big positives of Halogen bulbs. What impressed me most was the counterbalance design of the device. The lever and gears that allow for the easy and smooth lowering and raising of the lamp is ingenious and I would love to know the history of the design of this piece.
Pros:
- Great Design!
- Very bright light like all Halogens.
- Very clean white light.
- No flicker.
- Smooth movement of lamp arm.
- Long lasting bulb.
- Light device.
Negatives:
- Expensive replacement bulbs.
- The bulb runs extremely hot (Halogen normal).
- No change in brightness. (No high or low setting).
Solid unit were the biggest plus isn't the function but rather the incredibly efficient design.

decent desktop lamp
»
PROS:
-Lamp looks nice.
-Lamp is bright
-Lamp appears to be well made & sturdy, but only time will tell.
CONS:
-It's pretty common among these types of lamps, but it runs very hot. Don't put any heat sensitive devices/objects under the lamp. The lamp shade is also very hot to the touch.
-No dimmer. Once it's on - it's on. No adjusting the brightness. I wish manufacturers would provide this info to Amazon and other retailers. Not everyone needs a spotlight.

normande desk lamp

This is a great lamp for desk use. It is the second one that I have had and both have performed well.
I would recommend this lamp to anyone who needs general illumination for a desk area.
A great product that is great looking as well.
