Tools and Hardware Reviews of Globe 5210801 Energy Saving Desk Lamp, Black
Customer Review: Basic lamp basically works
Summary: 4 Stars
Nothings special, just a plain desk lamp. It comes with one bulb. I took off one star because the light switch is about one foot down the electrical cord, which means if you put the lamp at the edge of your desk the switch is dangling off the side.Customer Review: bright but not hot!
Summary: 4 Stars
The lamp is good that it uses a energy saving bulb, which gives out strong light without making the lamp hot, that's the best I like it.Customer Review: woth its price
Summary: 4 Stars
It's cheap and it's bright. The problem is the wire is a little short, and the switch is not easy to use.Customer Review: This review is not of the quality of the product, but merely is meant to give people more information not otherwise available.
Summary: 3 Stars
I have had the lamp for a week and am returning it because the following information was not in the description: the on/off switch is not located anywhere on the lamp itself, but is instead on the cord. I thought it was automatic that a lamp like this would have an on/off switch on the top of the lamp, or someplace on the base. If it's on the cord, it just is really hard to turn on and off because it requires reaching behind my desk.Customer Review: Non-standard lightbulbs required. Not a regular bulb socket.
Summary: 1 Stars
Buyer beware. This lamp does NOT take regular compact fluorescent light bulbs. The bottom of the bulb has these two tiny metal circles on it, that connnect to the lamp. Whenever this lamp stops working, i will definitely buy a different brand that takes regular bulbs.
Amazon even suggested that i buy a box of compact fluorescent bulbs made by the same company. Of course, these bulbs don't even work with this lamp! Good job Amazon! Guess i'm not the first (and probably won't be the last) person who falls for that one!
Terrible purchase overall.
