 Less fatigue; more cheerful in Cubicle world March 3, 2008
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
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.
Great for SAD March 1, 2008

I have Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), so I needed a light therapy lamp to get me through the winter. This was the least expensive one I could find, so I thought I'd give it a try.
Bottom line, it works! I feel like I do the rest of the year--alert and cheerful, instead of sluggish and grumpy. If nothing else, it helps me wake up on a gloomy day.
I do worry that its construction is a little flimsy, but the tradoff is in the price and the size. Its small size makes it a great desk lamp.
I'm very happy with my purchase, and I recommend it to all my friends.
 Not worth the money February 16, 2008

First, don't get me wrong... I like this item. It works. I just wish I hadn't bought it. How come? Because when I took it out of the box, I felt ripped-off.
It's cheap. It could have been made in China for less than a dollar, based on appearances. It contains a compact florescent lamp worth (perhaps) about $10. All I can say is that Verilux has awesome chutzpah to put the words 'full spectrum' and 'light therapy' on the box, magically transforming it to something worth almost $100.
The people who buy this product need help. Verilux is taking advantage of that, and using it to gouge people.

This product functions fine. It is used in the bathroom every morning, but it is difficult to determine after only one month of use if it actually reduces depression on overcast, cold, winter days. It will still be used every day for the rest of the winter and probably next winter too.

This lamp is actually annoying. Its just like a fluorescent light bulb. No noticeable mood change whats so ever.
Add on: 9/5/08 (within a year from purchase and only a few hours usage!)
CAUTION! Mine flickered a couple of times and then went POOF! I turned around to see what happen and there was smoke coming out of back of it!! A few days later I decided to see if it was the bulb and the light still works but now I am afraid to use it..
