Zelco Industries 00924 LED Desk Lamp with 60 Superbright White LED Bulbs and Flexible Spring Tube Armatureo Adjust Each. Black

If you like the style, this is a great reading and desk lamp with very bright lights. I need more words but don't know what to say.

I saw this item originally in the MOMA catalogue and it looked very chic. But when I took it out of the box it seemed cheaply made so I never even plugged it in.Back it went.

Searching for just the right desk lamp for my setup, I came across this unreviewed one. Key things I was looking for in a desk lamp were: be able to come from behind a 22" monitor and extend around the front, have a sleek finish while not cheaply made, and provide plenty of light. This lamp acheived all that and more! The individually adjustable lights are a real nice feature. This allows the base to sit off the back side of a monitor and have the lights curve around front. It also allows for virtually any position of lighting when adjusting the flexible armature as well. However, some of the adjustable lights did not hold their position against gravity. You really just have to find that 'happy medium' where the lights will stay in the spot you want them to. Not a big deal for me and they may have a screw adjustment if it becomes an issue for others. Note: I wouldn't try and apply too much force to the lights themselves when repositioning.The construction is sleek, sturdy and not cheaply made. The finish is glossy black and matches my 22" monitors exactly. The lamps are matte plastic with gloss black tops. The armature is glossy flexible metal and the base is glossy plastic. The base is weighted so the lamp will not fall over no matter how awkward the lights are positioned. However, when adjusting the lamp, you must keep the base from moving cause it's not weighted that much. The touch switch rather than toggle is a real nice feature. No effort needed to power on and adjust brightness. Touch switch works like this: Low->Med->Full bright->Off. I could do without the company logo on the base, but it's not a distraction.The lighting is way above average for LEDs as far as I'm concerned. I'm no LED expert, and there is no mention of how many lumens, but this lamp is bright enough to illuminate half my desk fully and still be able to see clear off the desk in a total dark background. Only 5W consumption is impressive as well. The nice thing about this lamp is not only can you tailor the spread of light from the adjustable heads, but each head has its LEDs angled out to create a flood effect. This works very well as it is more like a flood light than flashlight. Another cool thing, and this has more to do with LED lamps in general, is unless you have the lamp heads pointed right at you, there is no glare by looking at the LEDs.I hope this first review helps someone decide on this light if they are wondering. There were no reviews anywhere on the net about this so I took a chance and it worked out nicely.
