I purchased this light because I wanted one with a dimmer and because the reviews were great. I am so glad that I did! This light not only illuminates my workspace perfectly, but it looks and feels like a high-end lighting fixture. The dimming function is wonderful and the adjustable neck is convenient.

Be careful, they are held in position by friction joints. The upper portion (lamp) is heavy and if the joints are not tightned or locked to make them inflexable then you have the potential of having a very hot lamp down on your desk with a potential fire. If you leave the joints loose enough to adjust, then you are going to have a very bad situation.

The "arm" that is supposed to direct the light fell off on first use. The hole that it screws into is too large.

    Bought the lamp - didn't use it for 24 hours and the stand fell down on the desk during a conference call. Very frustrating after all the trouble of getting my order home to have to return it the next day.

      Comments about Tensor� Halogen Desk Lamp, Brushed Steel:

      I had a desk lamp for years with a regular light bulb.After checking some lighting stores, I could not find another one like it so went to Staples to look for one and there it was.It is easy to use, not hot like the other one would get even with a 40 watt bulb. The light covers my desk fully plus I like that I can make the light dimmer when reading. It has a very sturdy base that keeps the lamp from tipping over. The way the lamp shade is shaped it keeps the light from shinning in my eyes. I am hopeful it last a very long time.

        Comments about Tensor� Halogen Desk Lamp, Brushed Steel:

        I needed brightness. I'm over 50. First I bought a 20 watt halogen but returned it unopened after reading the reviews, many of which said it's too dim. This is 50 watts and pretty bright. It's not going to light up the whole room, just the area your working/reading in. Very adjustable. Nice smooth dimmer/rheostat which is a nice feature - you'll see. I'm well aware halogen bulbs can get hot. Seems to be quality construction. The base is fairly large but I think it's acceptable since you really want stability. I think they make 75 and 100 watt units but this seems bright enough and if I'm repairing a watch band or something I'll just bring it down close to the item. If your my son's age you might be able to get away reading with a 20 watt halogen.

        • Q:

          I am looking for the piece that I would use in order to tighten the part of the lamp (the first swivel part) that allows me to adjust the position of the light. It didn't come with the lamp, but i'm sure it should have. Its similar to a wrench, but it screws from the inside instead of outside.

          I have an older Catalina desk lamp and it says it requires a T-3 bulb. Will ANY halogen T bulb work or do I specifically need a T-3? I bought a 100 watt Edison halogen T bulb (doesn't specifiy number) and the lamp still isn't working. So I'm curious if its an issue with the bulb or if its a more serious problem with the lamp...

        • Q:

          What voltage does this lamp require? I understand that many halogens can be used with standard European voltage, "world" voltage. This would be indicated on the UL rating label, it would state 110/240V or something like that. Sometimes there will be a clunky transformer in line with the power cable. Can this lamp be used with 240V AC?
