The most portable lamp you did not know you needed
on October 15, 2023

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My house is full of lamps... wall mounted ones huge floor lamps small beside lamps and even those tiny clamp lamps to read at night. I never saw a need for portable lamps until I was given the opportunity to try it out as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. The lamp was completely assembled right out of the box which was nice because I don't like to spend time reading through and trying to figure out how to assemble products. The design of the lamp is fantastic. It's just aesthetically pleasing to my eyes because it's so simple and it just blends in with the surroundings instead of sticking out like a sore thumb. I didn't really even feel the need to read through the manual that was included. I plugged it in and it's usable while it is charging. I love that there are no extra buttons and all I have to do is tap the top of the lamp to change its light settings. I also love how sturdy the lamp feels but it's not so heavy that I feel like I'm getting a workout carrying it around. The lamp has been absolutely amazing so far and I have not found any fault with it. My eyes get fatigued after using the computer for a while and I've found that using the lamp in conjunction with the ceiling light has been life changing. I do not find myself rubbing my eyes or putting my head down to take a break or reaching for the bottle of aspirin to ease my headache. I have also found that because of its portability I'm able to use it not just at the desk but also while I'm enjoying my passion and hobby which is building lego. It's easier to distinguish between different colors and to find smaller pieces which were harder to find without the addition of this portable light. I honestly can't find anything wrong with the lamp. It's totally portable it's light but sturdy the light it emits is bright it charges well with the C charger and it blends in so well next to my desk. The only thing that could improve would be the availability of different colors.

Best work lamp

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this lamp from the Stellar product testing panel and I LOVE this lamp for my office!! I work in a school where there are huge fluorescent lights in the room. I share an office and we both prefer to keep those lights off and use lamps in our room. This lamp fits perfectly on my desk as it’s compact. The re-chargeable design makes it easy to move it anywhere without worrying about cords in your space or not reaching the outlet. I love how the light has not only 3 settings but also how you can brighten or dim those settings! I will say as the lamp is small I wouldn’t recommend it to brighten an entire room but it does great to give light on my desk with my paperwork! The battery lasts a full work day. I just plug it in overnight so when I come the next day I’m able to unplug and use it freely. I keep this lamp at work but it would even be great at night on a nightstand while reading a book.

Tru Red Portable Lamp

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a Tru Red portable Lamp to try and give my opinion from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I loved the sleek look and size of the Lamp. It was a great size to be portable enough to move around and is able to set in many areas small or large. The white matte color was just right for my room color. It is so easy to use and loved the 3 setting for different lighting the soft light was so good on my eyes. I read alot and the different setting at night was wonderful to adjust to my liking. My absolute favorite part was that each of the 3 setting was the you can dim or brighten them to your desired setting which is a wonderful feature! It also felt like my eyes did not get tired reading because I was able to see well enough. I was able to use the Lamp on my bed headboard to read at bedtime I used it on my side table beside my chaise for lighting and I used it on my desk to get some paperwork done when needed. This is the best Lamp I have ever had and I would highly recommend! Thank you for giving me a chance to offer my opinion.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this desk lamp. I thought it was great was very easily portable I've been using it as a lantern as well in the night. I love that it has 3 settings of brightness the first one being good for when working at my desk the other 2 were good for taking the lamp through the house at night. Also another great feature was the one tap to change the brightness.

Perfect desk lamp
on October 15, 2023
Posted by: M.R.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this light which we use currently at our home office desk in the basement. Love that it’s portable so we don’t have to deal with extra cords on our desk or placement near an outlet…which we don’t have many of in our basement. Easy to change brightness settings which are customizable and so handy for multiple people using this light! It’s a perfect desk lamp! I received this desk lamp from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Stylish and versatile lamp

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had this lamp for two weeks and so far I’m loving it! I work from home and have been using this lightweight desk lamp around the house for extra lighting during my work day and as a reading lamp in the evening. It keeps me from straining my eyes too much. I also appreciate its stylish design it fits right in with my modern aesthetic. It’s also very lightweight so it’s super portable and easy to move from room to room. And the fact that it doesn’t need to be plugged in once it’s charged is a game changer! I personally hate dealing with cords so this is a huge benefit. I also appreciate being able to change the color of the light as well as the brightness. I have dimmers in every room at home so this is perfect for me. I mostly use the in-between setting not too cool and not too warm. I could see myself using the warm setting in the evening for mood lighting. I typically don’t like bright white light because it strains my eyes but I find that even the coolest white setting is comfortable. The versatility of the lamp is amazing! The only things I would change would be: 1. would love if this lamp was another 4-6 inches taller so that it could illuminate more of my workspace and 2. would be great if the charger cord was usb-c to usb-c so that I could easily plug it into my laptop without an extra attachment. These are very minor things though overall it’s a great product and I would highly recommend. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this desk lamp.

Portable
on October 15, 2023
Posted by: C.S.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The lamp is portable which is perfect for travel or camping or incase of emergencies and the lights go out this would be a really good backup light since you don’t have to plug it up for it to turn on only when it needs a charge . The battery lasts long between each charge which is a nice feature . Its comes with three different settings that are activated with touch on top an the settings are perfect for any type of setting you’re needing a light for and each setting is bright enough to see an light up a area but not too bright where you’re turning the lights on in a room . It’s also medium size lamp that is not too big or too small and it’s super lightweight so you can carry it around . I can’t wait to use this lamp when I have my baby so I don’t have to turn on every light during nighttime . I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel .

Perfect versatile portable lamp

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was sent the TRU RED lamp as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. When I received the lamp I was initially impressed by the sleek design and simplicity. I set it up right away on my computer desk. After I was able to use it to get some work done at night I really liked the three different light settings. It gave me the option to adjust based on what was best for my eyes at the time which was really helpful. I felt like I was able to better focus with specific lighting and it was less stressful on my eyes. I also loved the fact that it was able to be charged and moved to another location. Before bed I like to read and I brought this into my room and it was perfect for me to get a few chapters in before calling it a night. Again the options for different light settings was perfect as I could find the right light for my eyes for reading as well. I would definitely recommend this lamp due to its options for lighting choices sleek design and portability with being able to charge and go.
