Sky Lite Black

Lamp is great for my studio - was easy to put together, the light is good, not bright white at full strength, softer… the only thing I dont like is the pole is a bit wobbly at the base, but the lamp stands straight… am buying another as I need more light on other side of room

A well made floor lamp with a sturdy semi-gloss, black powder-coated finish, that carries a 25-watt bright white LED bulb covered by a sturdy white translucent plastic cover. The lamp stands 69" high and comes with a three-year warranty from Brightech. It also comes in a white powder-coated finish. This lamp is a bit smaller than the old-style 71" Torchiere Halogen floor lamps still available from Amazon--those with the hotter bulbs that pose possible fire hazards. LED light bulbs emit no heat and pull low current, making them very energy efficient and safe to use. Be sure to follow the lamp's enclosed pictographic instruction sheet to ease your assembly. The light pole's metal threads make screwing each section together quick and easy. You'll need a small Philips-head screwdriver to tighten the bottom silver screw that secures the assembled lamp to its 6 lb weighted base. I suggest assembling this lamp on a flat work table, if possible, using several layers of bed blanket (or other padding) to protect the lamp's powder-coated finish while assembling. Note: when connecting the wire sections you should carefully "round fold" each of the longer wiring harness sections before tucking them inside the ends of each pole section (i.e., below the threads) as you hand-tighten them. Be careful not to severely crimp these longer wiring lengths when doing so. The push-button adjustable light-level switch will take a little practice. Play with it while referring to the lamp's operating instructions, and you'll get the hang of it. Note: LED bulbs are supposed to last for many, many hours. I suspect the light switch will fail long before the bulb actually burns out, so no worries (this lamp's white translucent bulb cover is secured in place by multiple screws, possibly indicating "do not enter"). This lamp illuminates an average sized, middle class living room or bedroom with more than adequate light. In fact, later in 2017, I plan on buying two more of these lamps for other areas of my 2200 sq.ft. house.

The lamp was slightly harder to assemble than a similar Brightech lamp I tried (admittedly one that cost twice as much), and the pole still has some give even when fully tightened into its base. Still the lamp is easy to turn on and off and dim via a lit-up control button on the pole, and is certainly stable enough not to be easily knocked down. I wish the light it gives off were a bit warmer (i.e., yellower) than the plain white light it projects, but at least it's not blue-ish. The more expensive torchière by Brightech I tried first seemed more solidly made and was brighter but unfortunately almost blindingly distracting because it exposed a "halo" of very bright light around the top--unlike this one which hides the light source completely and only projects the light upwards. Addendum: I bought another lamp just like this one when my 30-year old, much loved (because of the strong warm light) halogen torchière seemed to be failing (though it now seems to have recovered!). These lamps are fine, very well-priced in my opinion, but as I said above, the light they give is too "cold" and white a light for my taste (and I also wish they gave MORE light!). However, I solved the "too-white" problem by double-faced- scotch-taping a circle of yellow transparent cellophane on the top of each lamp, and now they give off the lovely warm glow that I prefer in a home! (It would be nice if the actual top came in that shade of clear yellow!)

Just received. Lamp was easy to assemble. It’s a good weight; not too heavy but enough weight to make it sturdy. Very pleased with the brightness of the light and the ability to dim the light just by holding the power button. Also like the adjustable height and 3 yr warranty.

I was searching for a floor lamp that was bright enough to light a large room (vaulted ceiling and all) without being blinding. I also wanted something sturdy enough it wouldn't fall over or come apart at the seams. This lamp is PERFECT. It's small enough to be unobtrusive, and is a simple design--which I like. I don't want my lamp to be the centerpiece of a room or an attention grabber. It's bright enough to light my whole living room even though I have it set in a corner. And it's bright enough that it lights the room WELL--well enough to eat, play games, read, etc. And it does this without being blinding! This in particular is very important to me as a migraine sufferer--lights that are too stark trigger attacks, but I can't live in the dark now, can I? The light is gentle and diffuse enough that it doesn't even cause glare on my television! I know it sounds silly to gush over a lamp, but I am so pleased to find a simple, utilitarian lamp that lights well without making me ill, and without breaking the bank. I've ordered two, and if/when I ever need more, I will definitely be coming right back to this one!

Great product but with one exception. I exchanged emails with Brightech customer service (and they were prompt to answer) about the possibility of buying the bulb part of this lamp so that I could have it on hand when the bulb eventually failed, i. e., a replacement bulb. Their response was twofold, (1) their bulb has very long longevity [a mean time before failure spec that met their interpretation of "industry standards"], & (2) if the bulb failed during the warranty period, they would replace it (& they have them on hand now for such an event). Customer Lessons Learned: Well as someone who owns a number of flourescent lamps/fixtures that their bulb(s) have failed, the odds of finding replacement flourescent bulbs for them at this point in time is very poor, to include that the company who made the lamps/fixtures have been out of business for some time; and the few vendors who sell flourescent bulbs have a great difficulty in matching what they sell with what my lamps/fixtures need; and basically they can't find a match in their inventory. I hate throwing an otherwise good lamp into the dumpster for the lack of a bulb to include a vanity in my bathroom with burnt out flourescent bulbs that's built into the wall; and finding a replacement vanity (which would now be the LED type) that fits (dimension-wise) that hole in the wall is zilch-yes, I could have it torn out and have any gaps replaced with sheet rock, rewired, etc., but such a "fix" just because its bulbs that are no longer made is several hundred(+) dollars. I am NOT a fan of planned de facto obsolescence to include that the life span of some of these manufacturing companies is not great (of the here today, gone tomorrow genre).

I needed a dimmable indirect floor lamp that could illuminate the ceiling in an exam room in my ophthalmology practice. I bought one of these years ago for another room and it still works perfectly. Assembly is simple if you follow the directions. The light rotates through three brightness levels and then off by simply pressing the button on the side of the stand. The button actually illuminates when the light is off, making it easy to find in the dark. When on the brightest setting, the amount of light emitted is quite adequate. But more importantly, on the dimmest setting, it gives off the perfect amount of ambient lighting I needed in this room that is used for specialized testing. I like that the base is quite heavy, preventing the fixture from being top heavy, which should keep it from toppling over easily. And it gives off very little heat, even after it's been on all day, thus reducing the chances of a fire that can happen with older halogen-based floor lights. The fact that it uses very little electricity is just icing on the cake. Highly recommend!

I bought this lamp based on a previous Brightech lamp that I have. This new one is a nightmare. First of all it isn't white but rather a light gray in color. The lamp head is smaller than what appears in the add and there is no way to replace a bulb because the lamp head is sealed....I guess you just "toss the lamp" after the bulb burns out. There is a lot of cords and connections to string thru the small lamp poles. I feel like I am stuffing the wiring in the poles which doesn't feel right and I fear could be a fire hazard. I got to the last pole and I needed a screwdriver to undo a screw. Unforturnately the screw was very tightly wedged in there and I couldn't unscrew it so I took the whole thing apart and put it back in the box. Contemplating if I want to go thru the hassel of trying to return it. Until that time, I basically have a $55.00 paperweight. Not happy at all with this purchase. The other lamp from Brightech was easy to put together, this one was/is a nightmare. Do not recommend. It does not look like anything as it did on the Amazon add. UPDATE: Had to spend 12.99 to get UPS to pick up this piece of junk.....never again! At least I'll get a few buck back.

Muy linda lámpara. He leído varias reseñas que mencionan que no es dimeable . Si lo es, sólo hay que mantener presionado el botón de encendido varios segundos.

Ilumina muy bien, facil de armar

Tiene una Iluminación excelente, la puse entre Sala, Comedor, Cocina. No tengo que encender ningún otro foco o lámpara.. Ilumina Toda el Área. Eso sí tomen en Cuenta Que NO ES REGULABLE, y solo tiene una tonalidad de luz. No es Blanca, ni Cálida.. es entre Ambas. Repito.. eso si ilumina muy Fuerte. Intensamente.

Excelente lámpara, muy bonito acabado, alumbra muy bien, es muy potente la luz y se puede graduar su intensidad, su botón de encendido se mantiene iluminado cuando la lámpara está apagada. La recomiendo ampliamente.

La lámpara da muy buena luz y ocupa poco espacio. Fácil para prender y apagar. No se puede regular la intensidad de la luz, pero eso a mi no me importó. La recomiendo.
