" ... The pole is made up of a few screw sections that are sturdy, but do seem a bit light weight. ... They screw together firmly and feel stable once screwed. ... I think I may put some locktite on the threads to see if the will hold in the tightened position better. ... Because the sections all screw together with the same threads you can change the height by adding or removing sections of the pole. ... It is comfortable to grasp and holds well in the different positions I bent it into. ... As is you could place the light up on a sturdy box or some other base if you needed to raise the light height. ... "
" ... If you would prefer it as a desk lamp, you just have to unscrew (which is easy) and remove the long body. ... "
" ... Since there are four sections that screw together, I was able to use just 3 of them to make the lamp shine from above the monitors off of the desktop. ... "
" ... Base is sturdy and the gooseneck moves easily. ... Packaged securely in a well-padded box. ... "
" ... The base of the lamp even has really nice non skid pads - in the shape of feet! ... "
" ... The lamp is sturdy, very easy to assemble, easy to move, and offers a range of lighting intensities in standard yellow tints and white light options. ... "
" ... Otherwise it is well constructed and functional. ... "
" ... First of all, it is well made mechanically, with the various parts fitting together easily and tightly. ... "

" ... I personally have never seen a light (bulb) that can be variably adjusted for color temperature (only brightness). ... "
" ... the brightness is great. ... "
" ... However I traded that for the different shades of light and levels of brightness you can adjust. ... The different shades of colors helps with my eyes . ... they don't fatigue and it's easier to see the colors I am working with when crafting. ... "
" ... The combination of lighting modes and brightness settings will create the perfect light for any situation. ... "
" ... Multi color hues adjust to relieve eye strain or increase for cataracts. ... "

Cables

" ... I like the fact that the power cord was attached high up on the pole. ... "
" ... Some other reviews mentioned they didn't care for the power chord plugging in up high behind the controls and I can see that. ... Plus they did supply a couple of Velcro cord control strips to hold the cord against the pole. ... "
" ... I like the power cord design as well. ... "
" ... Improvement idea: provide holes in the tubes so the power cord can be routed through them. ... "
" ... People complain about the cord. ... "
" ... So if you set up the lamp using the floor stand and all the pole sections the power cord hangs off the lamp pole. ... "
" ... One recommendation for product improvement: if you can build into the pole the wiring connection so that it still allows for the adding/removing of the middle pieces to switch between desk and floor lamp and only have the exposed cord attached to the base, it would provide a much cleaner look. ... "
" ... Other than the cord being exposed instead of coming out the bottom of the lamp near the floor this is a great light. ... "
