Great product for winter blues

I received this product in exchange for my unbiased opinion. I was pleasantly surprised at how energized I felt after using the Energy Light for such a short period per day. I put it on my end table and turn it on when I get home from work while I sit watching the evening news for about 20-30 minutes. I definitely feel a noticeable difference in my energy levels for the rest of the evening compared to before I started using the Energy Light. I suffer from SAD so this product is helping me regain some of the energy loss I experience during the dark winter months.
The product comes basically completely assembled - there`s no work when you take it out of the box other than plugging the cord into the back of the product and then into an outlet. The manual is very descriptive of how you should use the light and what time of day is best for you to use it based on your schedule, whether you`re a morning/night person, etc. It has a sleek look to it with simple buttons on the front for turning it on and then adjusting the light to your preferred brightness. It is extremely easy to use!
It has a stand on the back of the light that pops out so it can stand up on a flat surface. My only concern with the product was how heavy it is - I`m a little worried it may accidentally get knocked off the table and broken because the stand is a little small compared to the size of the light itself. Other than that, this product seems to made from high-quality materials and built to last. I will definitely be using this continuously throughout the winter!
Pros: actually works!, can adjust brightness
Cons: small stand - kind of unstable
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great lamp, felt more upbeat when using lamp

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] PRODUCT : Philips Natural Energy White Light Therapy Medical Grade (F3418/60)
PROS: Lamp is really bright when turn up and definitely simulates natural light. If you live in an area that is subject to dreary and overcast days this item needs to be on your MUST HAVE list. Easy to set up, operate and adjust intensity. I noticed that I was more upbeat when I used it.
CONS: Unit itself is much larger than expected. Unable to place on desktop where it can easily rach eye level.
FEEDBACK & RECOMMENDATIONS: Overall I would recommend purchasing one of these lamps for use during the winter or cloudy days. The display stand makes its profile very deep but otherwise love this device's design.
DISCLOSURE: I received a free sample product in exchange for agreeing to write an unbiased review.
Pros: ease of use
Cons: design - size, design - profile depth
I would recommend this to a friend!

The minimalist design helps it feel lightweight and well-designed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a free sample Phillips EnergyLight to try out for a few weeks. The product is really well designed. It’s simple, and easy to use. The options for powering on/off and selecting intensity are simple and clear. Setup is easy and doesn’t take very long. I love that it’s compact and doesn’t take up a lot of room.
Having the added light during my does seem to work. I generally feel better and more energetic while I’m using the light. I have a very busy workday and have typically had dips in energy during the day, especially in the winter. Having the EnergyLight during the weeks when the days have been short on daylight has been a revelation! By using it, I find that I have more energy overall and I don’t drag in the middle of the day.
Pros: it feels modern and could fit into any home, next to other smart devices.
Cons: i think the instructions make the device feel more, it actually is. more visuals could help.

Great for the Winter Blues
on February 8, 2018

When I received this free sample to review, it was in the dead of gloomy winter and I was in need of a mental boost. This product does just that. Assembly was easy and the instructions were clear to set up. I was surprised by how big the light is and am grateful that you can adjust the lighting intensity since it can be a bit much in small spaces.
I had a difficult time using the light at the prescribed times since it seemed too large to take to my desk at work, leaving only the weekends to use. For best results, they recommend daily usage but since I`m a morning person and need a boost in the afternoons, the timing didn`t work well for me. They also recommend pointing the light at your mid-section so it`s not directly in your eyes but it was hard for me to find a place to put it so it was most effective. When I was able to use the product as suggested, I did feel that it improved my clarity and mood.
Ultimately, I would recommend this product since it does use light therapy successfully, however it is important to note the issues I`ve called out above so you can plan accordingly for best use in your own space.

Easy and effective

I work from home, with my office currently located in the basement. Living in NY, we don't get much sunlight in the winter anyway, but these days it is dark when I start and finish working. I found the light to be effective in keeping me energized during the day. It is larger than I expected, but, to me, that is a good thing. I loved that all I had to do was take it out of the box, pull out the kick stand and plug it in.
Even if it is just psychosomatic, having the light on has improved my energy level over the course of the day.
