I have two of the "generic" ones also. A table top version and the floor lamp version. I love them, and will soon be purchasing another. If you have a big lots store in your area you should check there for the knock of versions. Mine are truly identical in looks to the OttLites, but I paid only $30.00 for each of them - and they both came with an extra bulb!!!!! I've had them each for about 3 years now and they are working wonderfully.
