I also have several and find them better than anything else I've used. Before I had cataract surgery I needed all the light I could get, but now with my "new eyes" I don't need as much. We bought a table lamp and a standing lamp for the price of one at a JoAnn's sale. By all means, wait for a sale and check JoAnn's often to get the best price. We also have two of the little folding ones, one for hubby's model railroad stuff and one for my sewing machine.
