Portable LED light delivers
on October 15, 2023
Posted by: MB
from West Chester
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this portable LED desk lamp. I absolutely love it. Let me count the ways… 1. It is functional. The lamp offers three types of light settings to choose (cool neutral and warm) and multiple brightness levels (from very dim to bright). I use the cool light when extra brightness is needed at my computer desk. The lamp brightens up the documents on my desktop and reduces eyestrain. The lamp height is perfect and effectively illuminates my work surface. I also use the warm light at its dimmest setting during nighttime when I do not want to disturb my husband but need some light. It is a nice soft warm glow! This would be perfect for a baby’s nursery as well. 2. It is portable. I am able to easily transport it from one location in our home to another (and I do). My desk is located on the first floor and it’s so easy move it to the family room for neutral lighting or to the bedroom at nighttime. 3. It has a very low profile due to its sleek design. I would describe the color of the lamp to be a very soft white not too bright. My style is transitional and the design works in whatever room it is in. It simply blends and does not stand out. 4. The touch sensor is incredibly easy to use. The directions are clearly stated and easy to follow. Once a dimness level is selected it is set until it is changed again. This proves to be very convenient. 5. The unit is easy to charge but I did not have the need during the evaluation period to recharge. So the charge holds for many many hours! My overall experience has been extremely positive with this lamp. No negatives!

Great lamp
on October 15, 2023

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the lamp as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and it is a fantastic lamp. The lamp is slim for great space on my desk. The lighting is fantastic! There are 3 modes to change the lighting for your needs or wants. And with the proper lighting my eyes didn’t have to strain as much as normal with a regular lamp.

Perfect workspace lighting

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The TRU RED Portable Lamp is the easiest most convenient lamp to have in any workstation. This lamp has 3 customizable settings with the tap of a finger which allows proper lighting to reduce eyestrain in your workspace. The best part about this portable lamp is the fact that it is cordless and sleek. I truly love how this lamp looks amazing and fits perfectly in any space not just a workspace. My favorite setting is the dim light setting which is amazing for my late night reading sessions. The one complaint I have is that while changing the settings with the tap of a finger is convenient that area is also very sensitive and can easily be turned to another setting or off. Overall this is a wonderful well built lamp that will illuminate any room it’s put it. Thanks to Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this lamp to test and review!

Customizable Convenience for anywhere Visibility

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The TRU RED Portable LED Lamp with Go-anywhere illumination is incredibly convenient. The ease of use portability and one-touch settings make it a very sophisticated and helpful design. I use the lamp that I received to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel for many different purposes. I have a bookworm in my house. It is helpful to be able to carry the lamp over to wherever he melts into a book because that can be anywhere. It Increases Clarity to help reduce eye strain with the Clear view LED. The slim design is very comfortable for porting. It also makes finding a space for the base easy. It is not bulky at all. This lamp is so convenient. I love the One-touch control for the light brightness and dimming. You just tap the top of the lamp to choose which color temperature you want (Cold light 5k Neutral Light (4k) Warm light (3k). After you make your choice all you have to down is put a finger on the lamp top for it to dim to whatever brightness you want. It's a total game-changer. There is an on-and-off bottom concealed on the bottom. I always turn it off when done to help save the charge. I love that it is a rechargeable 10+ Hour Battery life USB Type-C charging system. It does include the cable. It's nice not to waste batteries. I live in a location that is prone to blackouts. That makes this lamp even more of an asset. Whether I'm playing the piano writing a paper or sitting on the porch relaxing. I have a light that customizes to my needs. It's great for my family's visual safety. Life just got brighter.

Convenient Portable Lamp
on October 15, 2023
Posted by: E.M.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this desk lamp to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I have been very impressed by this desk lamp! Not only does it look great but I love that it's cordless! I do not have a designated desk space so having a cordless desk lamp has proven to be very convenient and something I never knew I needed. I also love that it has three different light settings and can also be dimmed. I also had guests at my home recently and used the lamp as a nightstand lamp. The touch sensor makes it so easy and convenient to use. I am actually considering buying additional lamps to use as nightstand lamps in other rooms. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a small versatile lamp!

Perfect versatile portable lamp
on October 15, 2023
Posted by: J.H.
[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.

Sylish functional and portable

from Cumberland
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I work from home full time and have multiple "office spaces" throughout the house - vs. a dedicated room in my home. The TRU RED portable lamp is perfect for this type of situation. I received the lamp from the Stellar Product Testing Panel and what I love most is that it uses a rechargeable battery vs. having to be plugged in. That makes it so much easier for me to bring it with me to my various work spaces without having to deal with cords and outlets. I also love the different light settings - from bright white to warm white - so that I can adjust the light based on the activity or overhead lighting in various spaces. I also really appreciate how sleek and lightweight this lamp is. It's so easy to move around and the white modern style fits in in almost any environment. This definitely makes it easier for me to work on my laptop in low light situations like nighttime or rainy days.

Chic lamp with customizable settings
on October 15, 2023

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The TRU RED Portable Lamp is incredibly modern and chic. The design of the lamp really "dresses up" the desk. It is the perfect size to be portable and also not take up too much real estate on the table. The thing that makes this lamp stand out is the tap controls. They are very intuitive and responsive and a welcome change from most lamps that you have to twist knobs or flick switches. The customizable brightness settings work well- I like the ability to switch between all of the different light settings and brightness levels. The one complaint I would have is that not a great light for long hours of work. The light from this lamp is great to light up the desk and also for shorter reading sessions- so it will work well for a lot of people. However for me even the brightest setting did cause me to strain my eyes a bit as I was working with paper documents for a few hours. Overall I liked this lamp and have moved it from my desk to the nursery where the low ambient light setting is perfect for midnight feeding sessions with my baby. The warm light setting doesn't hyper-stimulate him and allows him to get back to sleep and is very gentle on my eyes at 3am. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for giving me this lamp to review.
