Customer Reviews for TRU RED - Brightwell 5-in-1 Productivity LED Desk Light - White

i have been looking for a small desk light for the dim corner of my desk when the overhead lights are off. This is the 3rd light i have tried and its perfect! The different settings and adjustable brightness are amazing. The busy signal is a cherry on top! I wish it was rechargeable and had a better stand. its great when you get it balanced but falls easily. Please continue to improve this light!

I have had this for two or three months now and unfortunately it has stopped working. I loved it when it worked but now it's useless.

The buttons are not intuitive. It must be plugged in to operate and I’m nervous about the materials being sturdy enough to travel. I thought it charged so that it could work cordless while I was on the road. It’s difficult to get the mode one is looking for with the way it operates. The price point is way too high for a simple light. It does clip easy to the screen. It does light well once you get the mode you are looking for on it.

This light is great! Love the busy sign i use to let my family know when I'm in meetings. The focus light seems promising. I enjoy the breath work light and the others for stressful or dreary days. Great value in my opinion.

I had high hopes. But this light hurts my eyes if I use it. It is wayyyyyy too bright. Or I have to turn it to the blue or pink light and I see no benefit from it. Waste of money feels cheap. Cool idea just not worth it and I will never use it

Hi there — we’re glad you gave the Brightwell light t a try! Just a quick tip: each light mode has adjustable brightness levels. You can cycle through them by clicking the side button to find the setting that works best for you. We hope that helps you get the most out of your light!

This light has five different features helping me meet all my needs. The bright light is 10k lumens which is great when I don't get enough sunlight for an extra energy boost. The box breathing is good for both my clients and me during sessions. They seem to like the mood light features as well.

I love the touch button simplicity but what would have made this a 5 star product - ability to select time increments for each of the 4 settings. Keep the simple buttons but let the user pick the 10 min increment for focus to finish a quick task and once the light turns off it’s a signal to move to the next task. They can then set the meeting to 30 mins so the light turning off is a signal to wrap it up. The current increments are fine but just not helpful. Also a better stand for the light because it’s not a universal setup for monitors. Bring me back when this gets updated
