I have an Ott floor lamp. I really like it. It gives me a lot of light, and it's very adjustable so that you can get the light right where you want it. Mine has a couple of weird arms, one with a magnifying glass and one with a clip. They seem strange, but I've actually used the magnifying glass to thread a needle and the clip will hold directions or keep the bulk of the quilt off your lap. It's big, but not so heavy that I'm afraid to move it from place to place. For my money, it's the best lamp out there. Joann's sells them, and with a 50% off coupon, it's not very expensive.
