This is like having another set of hands. I picked it up for fine hobby work but my wife uses it to work on her fingernails. It's great for anything you want llight and enlarged on while keeping your hands free. I wanted a magnifying glass with light and this fit the bill for my workbench. Comes with a table top or edge mount that is easily switched between, multiple light settings of color and brightness and has been working with no issues. I would consider buying this again whenever the time comes that I had a need but this doesn't seem like it will die anytime soon.

Purchased: August 2023Review: September 2024Primary Use: Miniature paintingHours in use: At least 100+Issues: NoneWould Recommend: YesPros-It's nice to have color options to get an idea of how the paint job will look when displayed. Good warm, bright white, and cool white colors.-The brightness is good for painting while not being straining on the eyes.-The arm adjusts easily and stays exactly where you put it; no sagging.-The base is heavy enough to support the lamp in any position; no tipping.-The amount of magnification is excellent for tiny details.-It's nice to have the option of using the base or the table mount.-No flickering of the LED.Cons-If using the base, you need to hold the base when adjusting the arm. Not an issue if using the mount.-The nut holding the head needs tightened if moving it regularly.-The arm feels a little short if using the table mount on the back of a desk. I end up using the base for the most part, so I can get it closer without lowering the head too much.Customer Service: EXCELLENT!-Recently, I *thought* my lamp was failing, but it turned out that it was the third-party power adapter (NOT the one that came with the lamp, which I lost) that was the issue. However, I contacted KIRKAS before realizing this. They immediately sent a replacement and were exceptionally understanding when I discovered my mistake and reported it to them. Their response time was quick, the person I spoke with was professional, patient, and kind, and they stand by their product 100%. I would buy from them again.

I had wanted a smaller desktop/benchtop magnifier lamp and this seemed to fit the bill. It was easy to assemble even if the instructions were very coarse (poor English translation). The lamp is not lightweight on purpose, the base is very substantial and weighted to keep the lamp stable no matter how the arm is adjusted. The arm is easy to adjust and stays put. The size of the magnifier is just about right and the magnification is useful. The LED light is adjustable both for brightness and color and works well. I really like this magnifier lamp.

Love the light and the magnifier!It comes with a base or a clamp to clamp to table. I tried both...clamp did not hold on my table and when I used the base it was good until you stretched arm out to work with magnifyer....it fell over due to it being top heavy.I will keep the lamp. Good price point but I wish the arm was longer.

First, the good:At ~$35, this magnifying lamp is a steal--it's the only one that I could find that had the features in a regular desk lamp that I was looking for: adjustable color range and dimmability. If you think about it, those features don't necessarily lend themselves to a magnifying lamp--most likely you would want ~6000K (daylight) color and high brightness all the time...but because this has those adjustments, I'm able to use it as a regular desk lamp and switch to magnifying if I happen to need it.While there are only three color modes, the brightness on this has ten levels, and at the highest it's much brighter than most desk lamps. Honestly, three color modes is pretty much enough for most people--you have yellowish lights for night time relaxation, whitish light for normal usage, and blue (daylight) light for when you really need to see every detail. At 800 lumen, it's about as bright as a 60 watt (frosted) light bulb, and at 80 lumen, it's like a (somewhat bright) night light. That covers a lot of bases.Now, the bad:I'm going to agree with a previous reviewer and note that the stem by which this lamp connects to the base seems poorly made--folded sheet metal going into a hole reminds me of something you might find on an old tent pole, not a lamp. This makes adjusting the lamp a bit awkward--knowing that the meeting point is weak means you'll probably want to do it with both hands to avoid putting too much pressure on that particular joint.It's also fairly easy to adjust this lamp so that it will fall over when it's in the base. I suppose this adds flexibility to those who want to clamp it to their desk, but it might be annoying for someone who wants to adjust it with one hand while it's sitting in the base. Admittedly, it's a small complaint... but if you're planning on using this more for a magnifying lamp than a regular desk one, I would probably look elsewhere.Those gripes aside, this is a great deal for someone that wants a desk lamp that can occasionally work as a magnifying lens, and as far as I'm concerned it's a 5 star value if that's what you want.

This is a very nice lamp. It doesn't feel flimsy or cheap at all. I absolutely LOVE being able to adjust not only the brightness but the temperature of the light as well - as very cold LED light hurts my eyes sometimes. Overall a great buy at this price.My only complaints are that the magnification is not the best...it's adequate, but I bought this for working on very small handmade jewelry pieces and I was really hoping for something a bit stronger to help with my eye strain; and also that it is missing a cover for the magnifier. Having this near or under a window can potentially be a fire hazard since there is nothing blocking light from going through it when not in use.
