Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: "Reach" is only 18" and the base is too light Comment: Electrix Illumination 2225Z-BK Desk Lamp Pros: - Even though Electrix calls this an "incandescent" desk lamp, 13w compact florescents (equivalent to 60 watt bulbs), or smaller, will fit. Higher wattage mini or micro-mini compacts with larger diameter bases, won't fit. However, the lamp accepts virtually any incandescent bulb you might want to use. I've settled on a 75 watt incandescent, since it projects plenty of white, non-flickering light, and comes on instantly. - Although this lamp may, at first glance, looks like the cheaper models sold by stores like Staples and Office Depot, that's where the similarity ends. The Electrix is very good quality. The lamp head stays where you put it, with no slipping down or frame drooping. The "plates" at the three points where the frame sections intersect, are steel. The switch is the common on/off type sold at most hardware or lamp stores, in case it ever needs replacing. The paint is well done. - An inner shade keeps the outer shade cooler and increases light output because it's white. With a 75 watt bulb, the outer shade still gets hot, but not so much that you can't hold it during adjustment. A 100 watt incandescent is too bright for my tastes, and the outer shade gets too hot to handle. There is a small wire handle at the shade's bottom for movement, if the heat bothers you. I'll switch to a 13w compact florescent in the summer, since that type of bulb doesn't [also] heat the room. Cons: - The base isn't heavy enough. Rotate the lamp only a little to one side and the whole thing will fall over. That's because the base support hole must at the furthest point away from the lamp head for stability. Fully extending the lamp outward, the lamp reaches only 18" (support post to center of bulb) before it falls over; not even close to the 28" claimed. With a 1.25 pound iron weight-lifting plate ON the base, the lamp doesn't tip over, but it still only extends to 19". Raised all the way vertically, with the shade pointed down, the bottom of the shade is 19" above the desk.

Summary: If you are OK with the "cons" listed above and need a small desk lamp, this one deserves consideration. Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent desk lamp Comment: It took a while for my lamp to arrive, but I was very happy when it did. It's not often you can find a really well built lamp these days. I think this unit is definitely worth the money. I especially like the inner white bulb reflector. You can't see that in the picture, but it serves to focus the light and keep the outer dome cooler. The outer dome has a little handle to make quick adjustments easy without getting your hands heated up by grabbing it directly. I'm sure heat wouldn't be as much of an issue with a compact fluorescent. But I hate the light that those things give off and the flickering drives me nuts. Additionally, I'm not interested in having mercury in my house. Long live the incandesents!!! Excellent lamp More Reviews
