Learn from me, get the one with the most options
Way too bright, it’s like I’m experiencing snow blindness after using it which keeps giving me headaches. Need a lower setting to try to work up to the brighter ones. Hoping I’m able to return it for the luxe that has more color and brightness levels

Need help with this Happy Light from company
Very little instructions as a first time user. I feel like I am not using settings correctly. I have regular glasses and need them. I put light as close as is comfortable and trying to get some effect after 15 min, but nothing. Then put light closer to me to my side of face for 30 minutes, and stilldidn’t feel any better. What am I doing wrong? Am I expecting results to...

Response from Staples :
Hi Stephanie,
Thank you for providing your feedback!
The light needs to enter directly into your eyes. Generally, a good position is on a desk or table at 10 o’clock or 2 o’clock. You can even position slightly higher than your eyes to mimic the angle of sunlight. Just like the sun, you don't want to stare directly at your HappyLight Therapy Lamp, but you do need to be able to see it.
You also want to find a comfortable distance from the light. The closer the light is to you, the shorter the amount of time you will need to use the light to receive its full benefits. Many people leave their HappyLight Therapy Lamp at a distance of up to 2 feet and on for an hour or more while they work.
Just keep in mind that the farther you move it away, the longer you’ll need to use the light to feel its benefits. Think... closer = shorter time; farther = longer time.
Glasses are fine to wear as long as they are not tinted. Tinted glasses would cause less light to reach your eyes, and the light from the HappyLight Therapy Lamp needs to reach your eyes to work.
If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out directly to us at 1-800-786-6850 or [email protected] and we will be happy to help you.
Thank you,
Jessica

happy light is amazing
We got the HappyLight for winter, and honestly it’s been a game changer. My son, who really struggles with depression in the darker months, actually loves using it, and I’ve noticed a shift in both his mood and energy. Bonus, I’m using it too and feeling the difference… simple, gentle, and surprisingly powerful.

Excellent quality device!
I found the Happy Light Touch to be of acceptable quality, LED, SAD (seasonal affective disorder) light.

A bright addition to my day
I use the Lightbox during my morning because I'm up well before the sun comes up. It's helped me be more active each day.

Winter months life saver!
After some research, I chose this light table to replace my older one that stopped working. I am very pleased with this purchase. Love the compact size, multiple light and timer settings. Excellent product. Just what I need through the winter months!

Makes a Difference!
I wasn't sure if it would work. It DOES! I look forward to using it every morning and I can absolutely tell the difference. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by trying it. I should have done this years ago.

It's ok. Easy to use.
Expected it to be much brighter. It's easy to use. Wish that the stand have variable position options. It's just ok.

Excellent Company to Work With
I ordered 2 lights as Christmas presents. My youngest daughter has one and loves it, so I got them for her older sisters. I am also a mental health therapist and have clients who swear by these lights. I believe that they are beneficial to mental health. The order came, and there was only one light. I emailed the company and they were awesome. I got the second light ver...

Verilux Happy Light AKA "The Portable Beach"
One of the best inventions I have ever used. I struggle with sleep as well as anxiety and depression. This has helped me sleep deeper and stay asleep longer, and when I don't sleep well I can function better with this light. An absolute must have with anyone that lives in a colder climate without the sun. Amazing Product!

Great Product
I have been using the HappyLight for about a week now, since the sun is up later in the morning, the HappyLight is helping me cope better by providing light at my early rise time.

It works!
It's amazing how well this worked after one session. I usually get sleepy and have a hard time focusing in the afternoons, but after using the light I was alert all day. Something I noticed is that the first few times I used it, I left it on for too long and it affected my sleep, I was still alert at 11am. I shortened the time I use it and only use it early in the morni...

Seems to be helping!
I haven't had it very long, but I do feel like my mood has already improved some with it. I just wish it had a cordless version.

Great light. I love the 3 levels. Only issue is that the foot falls out. I wish it snapped in so it could be moved without it falling.
