I have several Ott lights. I think they are the best. When I am not sure about the colors I am mixing, I always stick them under the Ott light. Problem solved.

I have 2 Ott ones...love them both!!!

I bought the Ottlight and absolutely love it. Joanns now has them on sale and really good prices.
|
I've even gone so far as to take a bolt of fabric outside to match it to a paint chip. It was a green that just wouldn't behave in the store. So the staff allowed me to take it outside! They got the sale - enough fabric for curtains.
I don't have an OTT light, but in my sewing studio, I have natural flourescent lights and love them. My new machine also has 5 lights built in and it's great. |
I have three Ott's. One floor model from eons ago. At least twenty years old. I just replaced the bulb in it last year. I have the desk top one that when you fold up the light it turns on. Had that one about 15 years and never replaced the bulb. I now use it to do schoolwork. It also has a swivel base. Thr third is the same one only has a magnifier. DD uses it to do her crafts. It is about 10 years old and have never replaced the bulb.
My DS had the Daylight one and hated it. I use Reveal bulbs throughout the house and they help with my glare problem. |
I bought my ottlite task lamp(folding type) 15 yrs ago and
I've not changed the bulb yet. I have 2 of the task lamps that I use daily either behind my treadle machine or my electric machine. Also have 2 ottlite floor lamps and they are still on the original bulbs too. I know they are at least 10 yrs old. I have never tried the other lamp that you mentioned, so I don't know.

My Ott lights are 12-13 years old, use them every night and still using the bulb that came with them. Can't beat them.

I love the Ott light. My daughter found it at Odd Lots for much cheaper than JoAnn's has it.
|
Love the ott light. Never tried the natural light.

I have three floor model Ott lights and one clip on. Some I have had for at least twenty years and have only had to replace one bulb. I also have a floor natural light with large round magnifying section with light all around that I bought at a stitchery shop twenty years ago. It is fine for stitchery but no good for quilting.
