Not worth it.

Bought mine when Joann’s was going out of business - and it just quit. Nothing works. A whole lot of money for not even a Year of light. Barely used during that time. And because they were going out of business I am sure I don’t have the receipt.

Meh.

I’m so glad I didn’t pay full price for this product. I wanted to use it as a floor lamp but was never able to insert the head into the pole. I finally gave up and installed the head into the base to use as a table lamp. The instructions weren’t as clear as they could have been, especially for the floor lamp. The magnifier is pretty low quality as well, when looking through it things appear distorted. The light itself is pretty bright.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this lamp a few years ago, but it's barely been used. The power switch suddenly no longer works. Really disappointing in such an expensive product.

Snapped Mag light

This is my third 3 in 1 lamp. The first did not have the light around the magnifier. I upgraded to the one with the light. It lasted well over a year before the mag light was snapped off by a friend. She replaced the light and this one just snapped also. I barely touched it. They are both duct taped to continue using them. If the design is improved I would love to have another, but if the light is just going to snap off in a year, it's not really worth it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Magnifying Light snapped

I used this lamp on 4 Cross Stitch kits with no issues. Had it in a closet for a few years and pulled it out to work on another Cross Stitch. After using it for a month the Magnifying Light just snapped off. I really love this lamp but after reading some of the reviews I'm hesitant on getting another one as a replacement.

Irresponsible workmanship

I bought this when I moved into my new home. I was very excited & couldn't wait to set up my new sewing room. When I took the lamp out of the box all the parts were there As I put it together I followed all of the directions exactly, however the part that the actual lamp plugs into with a dowel in order to use it as a floor lamp was created upside down so I cannot use it as a floor lamp. (The top of part B is made so that it is impossible to insert the dowel unless the top of part B is disassembled. Then the dowel fits but the top of part B cannot be reassembled to the pole.)This is very upsetting. This product is now useless to me and I am extremely frustrated. What a waste of money.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
