OttLite Space-Saving Magnifier Desk Lamp | Table Lamp, Task Lamp | 1.75x Optical-Grade Magnifier, 4X spot viewer | Great for Home, Office, Dorm, Workshop

Nice and bright, and the magnifying glass helps a ton with my sewing. I have it by my sewing machine to help illuminate my work. I have had it roughly a year now and it still works great and helps me with my small handwork projects and pulling out seams!!

Wonderful “little” light! I use it to do my knit/crochet projects at night. And when my son was sitting in the chair it was on, I told him to turn it on; he was shocked by how much light came out!

I use this light all the time for crafts and cross stitching. The magnification really helps me with high count fabric.

Lamp was as promised. My husband uses it for painting and loves how it provides focused light with out being too obnoxious.

I got this light to use next to my embroidery machine and it's great. The little light shines right onto my stitching area so I can see the stitching and threads to cut them. I can bend the light down and open up the magnifier to see my stitched embroidery to cut away mistakes and pick out tiny knots with my tweezers. This light isn't too big to take up work space, but is bright and useful for working. I'm glad I have it every time I use my embroidery machine (nearly every day), because the light helps me see what I'm doing and the magnifier helps me see to clip threads and pick out threads that are all knotted up underneath (yes, that happens sometimes).

Actual item totally different from product shown in pictures and description. Much larger, not "space saver."

This iss the perfect light for someone with Macular degeneration or any vision problem to help them see better. I couldn't thread my sewing machne until I got one of these (and bought the second one for my desk also). The light/magnifying part angles so many directions and heights and tilts. I highly recommend this.

I recently set up a small craft space and needed something bright for my poor eyesight. After considering other more expensive options, I shopped OttLite and was quite pleased with not only their price points but the great selection of lighting options. My decision to buy was not only based on light brightness but the attached magnifier that makes crafting my projects so much easier on my eyes.
