How many inches does the arm extend? Do you use these lamps to read in bed?

The arm has a nice reach of about 13 inches fully extended and unless you install it too far away from your bed, it would make a great reading light.the picture doesn't show it but the horizontal arm moves back and forth from the wall, or in and out depending how you look at it. For the price I paid, I wish I had bought more for my motel. The guests love them.The shade is much darker, but I really like them, especially with the light on. Hope this helps.

It extends out about 11 inches, I leave it folded in a bit as I have it on the wall over the far corner of my bed so I can pile pillows there and read. Its also nice as the light goes from dim to bright, so works for having ambient light in the room as well. They were very easy to put up...and seem really sturdy. I was concerned about how big they seem but once it was up on the wall I really liked the look.

When extended straight out -- lamp extends approx. 14 inches. I do not use for reading in bed but have the lamp on the wall next to my recliner where I sit and read my Kindle and the light helps a lot and does not interfere with the Kindle. I purchased 2 lamps and the other is on the wall over my desk and highlights my work area very nicely.

Anna: Have not had a chance to put them up yet but would not be using them to read in bed. We are going to use them with timers on the wall. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

The arms extend the lamp about 16 inches away from the wall and yes I use them to read in bed at night.

The arms extend putting the light bulb 16" from the wall. We have them in our rarely-used guest bedroom.

Yes I do use these to read in bed. The arm extends a little over a foot. When they first arrived I thought they were a little smaller then I had thought but I must say for the price they are a good deal!

I ordered these lamps for that purpose but decided they did not fit into my room decor. I was going to return them but found the return shipping was only a few dollars less than I paid for them. lesson learned. Be sure yoou want them and they match your life style or you will be stuck like me. Return shipping approximately 153.00.

My bed lamp is on an old iron bed. The top railing of the bed is less than two inches thick. I do not think this lamp would fit unless you are able to bend the arms, as suggested below. I would say "no."

Our lamp is perfect for our needs, especially having the brass finish since our wood burning stove, in the same room of our home, has brass accents. However, we have adjusted the arms from side to side positioning but have never even needed to move any of the arms up or down. It's a great item and quite reasonably priced but I can't answer your specific question...

The lamp is approximately 18 inches. The arm can be moved to vary the height.

It's perfect for reading in bed and there a lot of flexibility in the arm of the lamp but make sure you can clamp it at an optimum level.

I have had this lamp for 6 to 12 months now and am very happy with it. The joints are stable and do provide a way to tighten them, although I have never needed to use that feature. The Maximum horizontal reach is about 4 feet, depending upon height off the table top. Usable normal reach would be 2 to 3 feet. If I needed another lamp like this, I would buy this one again.

The unit stands 17 inches on it's own and the arm extends 12-13 inches. It has the ability to extend farther than these dimensions due to the hinges at the base and the joint at the leg and arm. I find this lamp to be great!

Depends on the size of the board. From base to center joint about 15 inches, then the second extension at the joint is about the same. Maybe a couple of inches shorter. But it's a great lamp, and easily flexible, if the board is wide enough to accomodate the length of the arm.

I have my lamp sitting beside my sewing table. With the arm slightly bent over my working area, it is 4' high. When I straighten the lamp in a vertical position, it stands about 5' high.

The light is approx. 24" long and about 4-1/2 wide. The arm length is two sections of approx. 18" each. The base is a wind-on clamp, but the company does offer a fixed screw-on base optional. I have two of these lamps and absolutely love them.

Not sure how to measure the brightness. To me for bedroom use, the brightness is pretty decent; you can do some clean up under the light. However, if you want to read a book, then you'd better to use a table lamp.

The arms will bend. However, not sure precisely how much. Get Tons Of Compliments On This lamp. Probably worth a try in my opinion.

Short or tall this should not make a difference since it's propped on a bed or sofa. I use mine to read in bed or watch TV.

Sorry but I returned the lamps as they did not meet my needs. I don't recall if the base dimensions are listed in the specs on the web site.

I love these lamps in my family room. I was a little nervous about ordering them but I am glad I did... They stand about 32 inches tall..

I believe you can move the arms to be closer together or farther apart. Think long about purchasing this, I wanted it so bad, with another lamp I bought as well, and they look horribly gaudy. I hate my lamps. And there's a lot of assembling. And it was sent TWICE with broken parts and took at least a month to replace the parts TWICE.
