 Great light April 7, 2008

Verilux Natural Spectrum HappyLite Mini Ultra, Silver
I use a larger scale version of this light by Verilux. I sent my sister this desktop version and she is already getting good results. If you have SAD - this light definitely works as good as an antidepressant and it also enhances the effect of your antidepressant if you have a chemical imbalance like I do.
Only the summer sunlight helps SAD - so this light is great for the other 3 seasons.
 Wish I could review the product but I still haven't received it!! April 6, 2008

I purchased the lamp over a month ago. The lamp arrived over a week after I ordered it and it had a broken light bulb. I called the company, and they were very polite and offered to pay for the return shipping. It took a few days for them to send me the mailing label, and the shipping they do takes 7 days. Here I am over a month later, still w/ no lamp. I received an Email about 8 days ago saying they had shipped the lamp, but I still don't have it. So, I can't do a review on the product. But I am very disappointed w/ all the delays in getting and returning the light. This shouldn't take over a month to be handled.
Very Happy with It March 31, 2008

I've purchased various floor & table lamps to try to get even near this level of brightness for playing my electronic keyboard. This light sits flat on the keyboard, to the left of the book & near the keys, and I can see perfectly - for once. This also puts it at the perfect position (1-2 feet, angled, from my eyes) to give me the "light therapy" benefits, and I find it really does work. A bit too much. I usually sleep like a baby, but found I had trouble sleeping when I used this light in the evening. It does warn about that in the guide - I guess it's true. For my use, this light is worth the $90 (plastic container & all).
The best thing I've bought all winter! March 9, 2008

After my HappyLite arrived in the mail, I found it easy to put together and was using it in minutes. When you put it together you might think the pieces are a bit dinky, but this little light (which I keep on the side of my desk, next to my laptop) has changed my mood for the better. I currently live in Oregon, and the gray winter (and yes, a lot of the spring) definitely changes my mood. I've used it every day, and have experienced great results. I primarily use it on the "half" setting, which is bright enough for me. As others have commented, it can seem too bright the first couple of times. Just follow the positioning instructions (included) and you'll acclimate quickly. Once assembled, it's attractive and takes up very little space.
Less fatigue; more cheerful in Cubicle world March 3, 2008

I've used this rather unique light for a little over a month now, and am completely pleased with the results. I work in a 9' x 6' cubicle, lit only by the hanging fluorescents, which actually make my work space feel cavernous. The Verilux light immediately makes its presence known, and almost completely cancels out my awareness of the yellowish, sickly cast fluorescents. I do not find myself getting heavy bouts of sleepiness anymore and am generally more alert. Whether or not all of those physiological and emotional changes can be correlated to the Verilux or it is just placebo, the independent virtue of this lamp is in making me temporarily forget about the carcinogenic, pathetically unflattering aesthetic of the ceiling lights.
