I would not recommend this product. Looks cute but not functional. Every time I try to change the position of the lamp, the top of the lamp comes off. And the knob that is used to switch the lamp on and off also falls off frequently. Very flimsy.

Love this little lamp! It's perfect for MY needs. However, don't be fooled by the 20" height dimension listed for this item. Overall, it's no more than maybe 15" tall (hard to be exact because of the rounded surfaces). Perhaps if you pointed it at the ceiling it might measure in at 20", but even then I'm doubtful. :>

In order for the bulb to NOT shine in my eyes, the distance between the bottom rim of the metal lamp shade (*bulb cover?*) needs to be at about 9.5" off my desk. The base holds maybe 6/7 pens/pencils, a very small notepad (maximum 4.75" wide INCLUDING rings if you've got 'em on the side), a 3"x3" post-it pad or maybe some rubber bands, a few paperclips and/or stick pins/thumb tacks.

BUT, with a 60 watt bulb it lights up a sizable area (maybe 3' diameter circle), keeps a few little items close at hand, and leaves a very small footprint approximately 5.5" x 7.5". Great for a kid's desk, college dorm, that small kitchen desk where you write your lists & count your coupons, or for this old Nana who needs plenty of highly concentrated light. For me, this is so perfect it almost acts as a magnifier. REALLY helps these tired old eyes of mine.

Oh! And someone said the top gets hots. The metal shade could give you a minor burn if you kept your hand there long enough, but I've had no trouble with the plastic dome on top that acts as the on/off switch. It barely gets warm. While I wouldn't strongly recommend it for very young children, most kids over the age of 3 (even below) wouldn't leave a body part on the metal section long enough to sustain a serious burn. You know best what your kids will & will not do, so act accordingly.

Sorry I babble, but I wanna try & get it all in here. Bottom line: This is a great LITTLE lamp for a REASONABLE price & I'd recommend it as stated above. :)

I purchased the black version of this lamp 10+ years ago and it is still going strong. I'll need to replace it soon, as the plastic base has cracked around the neck of the lamp itself, but the crack was my own fault as I treated it too harshly, and it's over 10 years old. It's done its duty and I will be buying a new one before I go to college.

An excellent product. If you're in the market for a small general purpose lamp, buy this one.

Note: I did not buy this from Amazon, I purchased it from an AAFEES furniture store.

Honest reviews on Satco Products SF76/356 Organizer Desk Lamp, Steel/Black

I purchased this lamp for my daughter's study table and am quite happy with the purchase.The lamp is quite useful if you look at its price.The biggest downside is the top of the lamp which is very flimsy.If you use 60 w bulb as recommended by manufacturer,the top becomes unbearably hot and you cannot touch it .since the bulb dome is metallic,you cannot touch it while it is on it is so hot.The only way is to use the plastic cap on top of dome to move lamp or use a bulb with lower power....

Though I was a little nervous at the need to assemble, when I received the lamp (primarily because of the plastic); it works great and helps me keep my desk organized!
