I like this little lamp. But I liked my old one better, I am looking for a lamp kit to repair the old one. This little lamp bends only in the top half of the stem. My old one would bend anywhere from the base to the top and any which way, I think the socket in my old one finally gave up the ghost, It was 10 years old or so, but I'm going to see if I can get a lamp kit for it, until then this one is a good stand in. It was priced decently. It's a decent lamp for a decent price, however I believe it was on sale when I bought it. I like the on/off switch where it is on the top of the lamp base. It is easy to turn on and off.The light bulb doesn't flicker at all when it's on, that I can see. The materials seem to be of good quality even at half the size of my old one. I'm not impressed with the way the goose neck is designed, like I said it only bends at the top not the whole length of the goose neck. The utility of this lamp is restricted because of that. The ones closer to what I had are priced at 39.00 to 150.00 and I refuse to pay it.

Look, something this simple and rustic was hard to find. It was exactly what I was looking for without the extra modern style choices on it. I am giving it 5 stars because it's average is underrated.However, personally, this was worth 4 stars. Why? Because there is an unprotected screwhead on some of these (I have 3) that isn't adequately protected and can stratch cheap furniture (real wood should be fine.. it just ripped the decorative covering of my cheap engineered plywood furniture)

Simple. Works well. Just a little bit overpriced for what you actually get.

This little lamp puts out a lot of light either for spot work or ambient lighting, choose the bulb accordingly. I need this sturdy, little lamp for both kinds of lighting so I use a bright white fluorescent coil bulb and I couldn’t be happier. There is one “on/off” switch and a long bendable neck. For ambient light I turn the lamp towards an opposing wall and the reflected light casts a pleasant shadowy, gentle light great for watching a movie on a large or small screen. There is no flickering whatsoever. It is exactly what I needed. A do-it-all lamp, simple to operate, adjustable and inexpensive. Arrived quickly and well packaged.

I was looking for a compact lamp for my reading corner, and I ended up choosing the Simple Designs LD1003-BLK.The design of the lamp itself is, well, quite plain, really simple. But I didn’t intend to admire it; I need it for reading in the evenings.It’s a classic and very affordable lamp. I mentioned the black color earlier, and the flexible neck is also handy: the 60-watt bulb is pretty bright, and I can easily tilt the lamp so it doesn’t strain my eyes.In a few reviews here, people mention that this lamp has survived multiple falls, and that's true—although it’s made of inexpensive materials, it’s quite sturdy.Overall, this is the most ordinary desk lamp in the world, without any frills. Cheap and cheerful, and it gets the job done.

Good lamp that's steady and good price.

Simple lamp, works fine, but the bottom of the lamp is missing two of four screws and so the piece on the bottom does not attach well to the base and therefore is off kilter. I attempted to use the Amazon customer service to contact the seller and request the missing screws but that does not appear to be an option. Maybe they will see this review and will contact me so that I don't have to go through returning it
