I have 2 floor lamps, 1 table top, and 2 desk lamps that are Ott and love them! I just got 2 more desk lamps for mine great nephew and his roommate to take to college in August. I sew and read with them and they really help. I also have another floor lamp with the magnifier and have the same problem of it being top heavy but when I am doing fine sewing, it is wonderful.
