Mlife SAD Light Therapy Lamp,10000 Lux LED Sunlight Daylight Lamp 3 Color 10 Adjustable Brightness Light with Remote Control

Physically the thing is quite nicely made with a reasonable construction for the price apart from one thing: the stand, which is flimsy and of limited use. I recommend using it with a cheap flexible tripod attached to the threaded mount on the bottom.The printed instructions don't perfectly match how the thing actually works in practice, for example the brightness buttons on the remote change the colour temperature as well as just the brightness of the light if you use any of the three presets (it works if you leave it on the default setting). It's also quite weird that this default appears to be impossible to reach again after using one of the other presets (you have to switch it off and on again to get back to the default).EDIT: the company have reached out to me and advised that they're improving the features of the light. They've also issued me a full refund due to my dissatisfaction, which they did not need to do, thank you. This sort of customer service is pretty good, and I want to be open about the fact that I've knocked the review up to 4 stars from the original 3. This is also in part because I managed to get my tripod to thread into the screw mount better than I had when I reviewed originally.

I like how portable it is, the main purpose of me buying this was because I'm staying away from home a lot at the moment, mainly for work, and wanted a light that I could put on in the dark mornings to get ready to and do my makeup. This does the job, if a tiny bit bulky. To be honest, I was expecting this to be brighter (I had a similar, but larger and slimmer, version of this a couple of years ago which was a lot brighter but the buttons broke hence having to buy another). Another point to be aware of is the stand is very flimsy and you can't adjust the angle. I prop the light against other items instead of using the stand which can be a pain. Overall, decent value for money (it was around £20 when I purchased), but I wouldn't pay much more for this as I think you can probably get alot better if you're happy to pay abit more.

This is a great product but I am unable to use it with my condition - Bi-Polar.. it makes me hyperactive so I could have an episode, which I definitely do not want.I bought it because during the darker months after clocks go forward, I just find myself falling asleep in the lounge. I'm just in oblivion after our evening meal. It's unfair to my husband.I've researched it - ASDS - Advance Sleep Disorder Syndrome. It IS a thing but my GP has no clue - never heard of it and no clue as to how to treat it.The lamp did keep me awake - but somebody made a remark about me talking too fast on the phone - so that's the slippery slope i don't want to go down.I should point out that I didn't buy it to treat SAD, but further research seems to lump ASDS with SAD.Hope this helps somebody X

Summer's over! UK clouds and short days coming! Seems to work well, very bright, but lots of settings and options for whatever's comfortable for you. Good price too.

I can't honestly state whether this helped my mood through the winter or not as I only used it for one season and there are too many variables to consider. That said, it felt really nice to have it on in my home office on dark mornings, so it's definitely something nice to build into a morning routine in darker months.What I can say with absolute certainty is that it's a great light for video calls! I bought it on the recommendation of a colleague and I have since recommended it to pretty much everyone I know who spends a lot of work time on video. The general lighting in my home office is a bit dodgy due to the position of the window but I just plug this into my laptop and put it on the desk in front of me and it makes me look so much more human.

I'm a moody so and so at the best of times. I'm terrible once the days get shorter. This light has worked wonders for me so far. No arguing with the guy in the post office, no fighting in the pub. Maybe I'm a changed man thanks to the Mlife portable therapy light unit.

Bought this after a long lockdown winter. Had felt I was feeling very lethargic, nothing to look forward to, everything seemed depressing. Bought this lamp, straught away I felt lifted, it is so bright with three different light settings. Very simple to use, will come in very handy if we are unable to travel to see the sun 🌞
