Globe 5203801 Energy Saving Desk Lamp, Metallic Silver Reviews

If I had hair, I'd be like Goldilocks looking for the perfect fit.For me this lamp is a perfect combination of illuminatin and style. The six inch base doesn't take up a lot of room and the lamp shade is adjustable by the flexible gooseneck. I don't want a lamp that lights the whole room; I've got a floor lamp for that. The Globe desk lamp illuminates a large enough concentrated area to light my large desk calendar and keyboard; it makes reading in that limited area comfortable. The cord is not very long, but reaches far enough for my needs. If you need a six foot cord, you'll need an extension. The on/off switch is on the cord, about a foot from the lamp base. Depending on placement, this could be a problem in some applications. Replacing the special fluorescent bulb with built in ballast could be a problem. I haven't seen bulbs like this in stores, but they are available on...

This lamp is alright, a little dim, but it works well for me. I am a little concerned about replacing the bulb when it burns out. It seems to require a special brand sold by the manufacturer. 22 of 22 people found the following review helpful: Hard to find bulb, By John Gault (New England) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Globe 5203801 Energy Saving Desk Lamp, Metallic Silver (Tools & Home Improvement) The lamp works well enough and seems sturdy. My issue is the bulb is not a standard light bulb which I thought it was when I purchased it. I use 13 watt cfls in all my lights and when I saw this included a 13 watt cfl, I stopped reading the description.Had I read on, I would have learned that the bulb is not a standard cfl, but has a GU24 base which is hard to find and expensive. The only place I seem to be able to find them is Amazon and a few other online retailers, and they are around $8.00 per bulb. Half the price of the lamp. I can buy 8 packs of standard 13 watt cfls from amazon for $10.00, so this seems really expensive to me... This bulb isn't going to last the rated 7 years either, none of them do. When it burns out, I'll remove the socket and replace it with a standard screw socket so I don't end up throwing the lamp away. |
