With this lamp, I am so far very satisfied! OK, she needs a little (about 1 minute) until it "preheated" is (only then delivers them full light output), but after that you have a pleasant light - for living rooms. For working spaces (office, workshop, hobby room, etc.) I would not take them because of the "yellow" hue (there's a better shade of white), but in the living room for. As the light for a cozy atmosphere.
