I love my Ott lights! After using my table fold down one for years before needing a new bulb, I got a floor one (at Joann Fabrics 50% off). Then the Christmas I bought my hubby a full keyboard piano, I told him to borrow my floor Ott until he found a cheaper floor lamp. Well, he ended up telling me to go get myself a new one for sewing because he loved this one and it looks so good with the piano too. So, I did. Then, when my dad was so ill, I was spending 3-7 days at a time with my folks, I splurged and got a whole sewing set for at their house; a new machine, scissors, rotary cutter, cutting board, and another table Ott. They emptied a small armoir to dedicate it for my equipment. I sewed many things for my dad that year and for my mom ever since. So far, the only bulb I have had to replace in all my 8ish years of quilting is on that first table lamp, a year and half ago. I highly recommend the Ott light. Oh wait... I forgot one.. when my mom needed a floor lamp for her new keyboard (helps her through grief), we found a non-Ott brand lamp with the same like sun qualtiy. That was at Home Depot, on sale, then she got $25 off by signing up for a Home Depot card, so she ended up paying only $30. She loves it.
