marctronic Floor Lamp, Upgraded 42W 4000LM Super Bright LED Floor Lamp for Living Room Bedroom, Dimmable Standing Reading Floor Lamps with Remote & Touch Control

It comes nicely packaged. The pieces are separate, but the cord is already through them. So, all you have to do is screw everything together. The instruction book is well written and helpful especially when figuring out how to use the buttons. The Lamp: The lamp has good ranges of both brightness and color. The base is nicely weighted and I feel the whole lamp is sturdy. The main lamp will swivel side to side and can fold all the way down to the pole. It will also rotate, which makes it so you can put it to whatever direction you want at almost any angle. The arm for the side light is very flexible and allows that light to be pointed whatever way you want. There are control buttons on the pole and it also comes with a remote control (2 AA batteries NOT included). The handheld remote: My remote was already paired with the light, but they do have instructions on how to pair it if for some reason it wasn't paired. It does need 2 AA batteries that were NOT included. The remote can be magnetically placed on the pole if you don't need it elsewhere. The remote has separate controls for the main light and the up light. You have a button for light color temperature and a button for brightness and a button for on and off for each lamp. There are also buttons for night mode and reading mode. The buttons on the pole: It has 3 buttons on the pole. They are VERY touch sensitive. The top button is for on and off (short touch for main light, long touch for small light.) The second button down controls the main light (short touch for color temperature, long touch for brightness.) The bottom button controls the small light (short touch for color temperature, long touch for brightness.) Using a smart plug: I bought this lamp to use with a smart plug and I'm happy to say that it does work with the plug! It keeps both the color temperature and brightness settings when you turn it on and off using the smart plug. Though when you turn it on using the smart plug there is a short delay before it actually turns on (you do not have that delay if you turn it on using the remote instead.) Using a light switch: Well, I didn't test this, but a light switch would work exactly like using the smart plug. So, you'll see the same thing. It will hold the color temperature and brightness when switched off and back on, but will also have a short delay from when you turn on the switch to when the light actually lights (you do not have that delay if you turn it on using the remote instead.) What I like: I like how bright it is and being able to set the warmness or coldness of the light. I didn't expect to care at all about the side light, but I love it's very flexible arm! I really like that it works with my smart plug (and holds the color temperature and brightness I set before turning it off) and don't mind the moment delay in it turning on. What I don't like: I really wish they had a way, a light or something to tell you that you are at the brightest or in the middle or which color temperature you are at or near. the buttons just cycle you through everything. I end up having to go through all the brightness choices several times because I'm never sure I'm at the brightest until it switches to not being bright (same for color temperature). I also don't like the night mode and book mode buttons. I'd like them if you could press them a 2nd time and get back to the color temperature and brightness you had before going to night mode, but you can't. To get back to where you were you have to once again step through the color temperature and brightness levels. To sum it up: I love this lamp! It's going to do exactly what i need, which is to light my tall ceiling. It has a nice, bright setting that will definitely do the trick and it works with my smart plug!

It is a quite bright light, can light up my entire room. The quality looks nice, feels good, and is easy to assemble. Also there’s a remote control for the light, making it easier to control.

My home office is naturally dark, and my eyes aren’t what they used to be, so I needed something that could truly brighten the space. This lamp delivers. The main light gets extremely bright when I need full visibility, but the dimming options let me soften it for a calmer atmosphere. The touch controls are responsive and easy to use, and the included remote is a lifesaver — especially since my outlet is across the room and I often need light before I can even get to the switch. I also love that it has both the large upward-facing lamp, which floods the room with light, and the smaller adjustable reading lamp on the side for focused tasks. The whole unit feels sturdy and well‑made, and I never worry about it tipping over. If you need a lamp that’s bright, versatile, and thoughtfully designed, this one is absolutely worth it.

This lamp replaces a torchier lamp that was at the foot of a piano in a spacious living room. It was the primary light source for the room. Also near the foot of the piano was a music stand I used to practice guitar. This piece, with both lamps on is not as bright as the torchier. The torchier reflected about 1100 lumens from the ceiling to a light meter held about waist high. This lamp, with both lights on, measured about 950. However, when I sit at the music stand, I can reposition the gooseneck ring light to illuminate the music stand, allowing me to see the music better than the torchier alone. This allowed me to eliminate a music light awkwardly attached to the music stand. Add a remote control that magnetically attaches to the lamp that allows you to easily adjust both brightness and color temperature and you get a very versatile piece. The color temperature goes frem a very warm reddish light (low color temp) to a very bright white. (High temp). If you need a lamp in a corner of a room, the main light can be adjusted so that it would reflect off the ceiling and two walls. I suspect this would make it to appear as bright, or perhaps brighter than a torchier. Add the ring light and you would have a great reading area. If they ever make the top lamp brighter, it's a five-star for sure.

I've had this light for a week now. It's replacing a 200-watt incandescent floor lamp in my studio apartment. It's been on pretty much continuously at max brightness whenever I'm home and not sleeping. It's a little brighter than the light it replaces and everything has worked perfectly the whole time. Thumbs up from me for no internet connection at all or apps or anything. Assembly is easy and weight is fine - light enough to be easy to move, heavy enough that it's not likely to tip or fall under any conditions normally found indoors. The remote and lamp controls all work fine. You don't really need the remote, you can do anything with the on-lamp buttons too, it's just a little clunkier. There's a magnet for hanging the remote that holds it up nicely. The magnet is on the remote itself, so it'll stick fine to anywhere on the lamp pole or any other handy metal surface. It does remember the last brightness and color setting it was on when you turn it back on. The power cord comes out the side of the pole near the bottom, not through the bottom. Not a big deal, but not quite what some of the pictures say. Heat isn't much of an issue - being on for hours at max power in my warm apartment, the AC adapter is barely warm to the touch, and the main lamp module is a little hot to the touch, but it isn't going to burn you or anything. Certainly less hot than a similar brightness incandescent. So everything works great with this light for now. My only concern is longevity. The LEDs do not appear to be replaceable as far as I can tell. Hopefully this will keep on going strong for years, but no way to tell for sure now.

This is an awesome find. I was surprised how the light fills the room completely and has a dedicated reading lamp for the desk reader as well. Plus for this is the remote and you can change the light from soft to white light depending on your need. Remote control included with some assembly work required. Overall, this is a nice addition to any room that requires flexible lighting.

Great purchase! Love the different settings and that it's dimmable. It's super convenient having 2 lights that are completely seperate from eachother (meaning you can turn one off and leave the other on, and both can be controlled seperately so one can be brighter than the other, or one can be a different 'temperature' (warm/cool) than the other). It's also convenient that you can tilt both lights in any direction you want so that the light isn't directly hitting your eyes. I currently have the bigger light facing the ceiling and the the little one facing the back wall, but the light still fills the room even if its not on max brightness.

UPDATED REVIEW: Full disclosure - Seller has offered me a full refund. I will not be accepting the refund. We are still using the lamp - even though the controls on the lamp post do NOT work. The remote works most of the time. Sigh. It's really an inferior lamp. But it was too difficult to take it back apart to return it. I don't feel it's fair to accept a refund in this case as we are not returning it. On occasion I do accept a refund - depending on the circumstances and I of course immediately report that in my reviews. Still, I do NOT accept compensation for any of my reviews OR to change my review for a refund. First thing to note is that you will put this lamp together. It's heavy and awkward. Second, the remote sort of works, but the power switches on the actual pole do NOT work. I like the diffused light it offers, however, the whole thing should work out of the box. The remote does dim and brighten. Not going to take it apart to return it. Quality is very, very poor. I just can't recommend this one. Having said all of this, I never hesitate to update my reviews should new info seem useful.
