Anika 62480 Hurricane Table Lamp with Touch Activated Base / 3 Brightness Settings / Easy to Install Bulb / Antique Brass Effect Base / Mains Powered / 28 x 12.5cm

The lamp arrived very well packed. The whole lamp is encased in moulded polystyrene in its own box and then inside a bigger Amazon box. The original box looks very small but the lamp base is cleverly packed inside the shade. It’s very easy to assemble although if you have large hands the bulb might be a bit fiddly. I bought the recommended bulbs at the same time. It would have been nice to have a bulb included but as the price of the lamp was very reasonable I don’t mind. The good points are -1. The lamp is well made and looks more expensive than it is.2. The 3 levels of light are perfect. The lowest is a perfect night light. The next is easily bright enough to read by. The brightest is still not hard on the eyes, even with a glass shade.3. As it is a touch lamp there is no cord trailing over the bedside cabinet where a lot of lamps have an inline switch. There is also no struggling to reach a switch often located at the base of the bulb. I bought it as I have rheumatoid arthritis and my hands are basically useless at night. The lightest touch is all that is required.4. I think the lamp is a nice size. The shade in particular is slim whereas on a lot of lamps the shade can get in the way on a bedside cabinet, particularly if you have limited space which is often the case. I have taken a photo with a phone to show the scale.5. The clear shade is so much better than a lot of the fabric covered ones which seem to be on the bulk of bedside lights. It doesn’t dull the light so you don’t need a high wattage bulb. You don’t need to colour match it other than choosing the base.The few negative points are -1. The touch base is very sensitive. If you are heavy handed the light will just turn on then immediately off but it is not a real problem.2. The cord could have been a bit longer. Fortunately my sockets are exactly in the middle of my double bed. Even though my bedside cabinets are quite tall the lamp is still at least 18 inches from the edge of the cabinet.3. The shade is fine glass which looks so much better than plastic but makes it unsuitable for a child’s room. If you knocked or dropped the lamp it would certainly break.The negative points are very very minor and no problem. The lamp looks more expensive than it is. It’s a perfect size and doesn’t crowd the bedside cabinet. It’s so easy to operate and it’s nice to have 3 light levels. It is also a nice bright light which many of todays lamps are not. I would certainly recommend it and am planning on buying a second one.

This lamp is beautifully well made, looks amazing and has 3 different light settings.i love it and will buy another for the otherside of my bed.

It's a lovely to look at. Nothing to dislike about the lamp itself but could do with the bulb being more dimmable.

These look lovely as bedside lamps. Elegant and the light levels are just right.

It is just right size I needed and looks nice on

First of all many thank's to Amazon for Brilliant customer service...Despite very efficient packing the glass shade of the lamp arrived broken..Outstanding service from Amazon who oncontacting them had another in the post before I returned the damaged one to them with return paid label.Now to the lamp, I had one of these lamps before and they are beautiful, previous one lasted years.Simple to use, just touch the base for dim light mid light or brightest light.Handle the glass shade with care as it is extremely delicate. I highly recommend this lamp for designand efficiency...

A lovely looking lamp. however both arrived with the lampshades broken into a million pieces. I was surprised at how thin the glasses is on the shade. reluctantly returned these. However the glass being soo fragile was a worry.

Lovely looking lamp, only problem is that when you put it on the brightest setting, the light flickers, so can only use them on the lowest setting,
