Even stainless steel makes the TV Daylight any designer lamp. Grobschächtig it is on the desktop and is not a looker - but the light! Getting used to bluish as all daylight lamps illuminate enough surface for a book or the writing pad, bright, so reading is less tiring than with halogen lamps. I bought the lamp for a test in "market in the Third" on NDR or WDR in autumn 2010 and am satisfied. It provides exactly what I bought it.
