We currently live in a climate where it rains often, and in Oct/Nov all day, every day. The Verilux lamp lights our table where we each sit on one side of it and turn it on for shots of sunlight. It helps maintain our USA-western-high-plains-sunlight-blessed-for-60-years bodies and spirits.
I've had this light for 8+ years! I haven't had an issue with it. I have mine on my vanity and turn it on every morning while I get ready. There are days where I keep it on in the background for HOURS, and I have yet to have problems with any of the bulbs. Living in Maine, I experience SAD every winter in addition to my MDD, so I use this lamp all year! I highly recommend this product!!
This lamp is the perfect size for my work space, I appreciate its verticality. I also like that I can swap out the plate to vary the light intensity, which I plan to do based on the season. I use this lamp year round. It helps keep my energy up during the work day.
Winter can be dreary in the Pacific Northwest, all winter long. Sure is nice to know I can get my shot of light in the morning and feel better all day. In addition, the medication I take makes me photo sensitive but the Happy Light does.not affect that! Love it!
Verilux has ceased selling bulbs for this lamp!!!!

How can Verilux continue to sell HappyLights that take the CFS26GU24VLX when they no longer sell replacement bulbs for this item? I'm told they are not just "out of stock temporarily." They have no idea at all when or if they will sell these bulbs again. For shame, Verilux. Don't buy this lamp, unless you plan to throw it in the trash when the bulb burns out.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
