Does it take a 3 way bulb?

It says 3 way but when we used one, it didn't work. I tried 2 different 3-way bulbs.

Yes, it does. I use a 150 max bulb, according to the lamp's specs. Nice and bright. I have it near my bed for reading, and it is perfect! Hope my answer helps.

Its supposed to, and mine worked with the 3-way exactly 3 times. After that it only worked on the middle setting. Not a big deal for me, though, since I got for a reading lamp over my bed, and it works great for that.

Well, the socket accepts it, and there are contacts in the socket appropriate for a three way bulb. But, on my two identical lamps it won't do the three way feature. Not sure if the switch is broken or what is preventing the three way feature from working.

I discarded the papers that came with it. But just doing it from memory I believe it does. Sorry I can't be more help.

the lamp takes a 3 way bulb, max wattage to 100. I used a bulb that is 40, 60 and 100 watts

You can screw a 3-way bulb into the socket, but it shorted out very quickly. Actually, I bought two. The second one is still working with the lower wattage 3-way bulb. I never tried the higher wattage bulb.

You could use a three way bulb but I wouldn't or in other words u don't have to.Any watt u decide to use it will give u great lighting

They have three way switches. You will not be disappointed in these lamps!! I have had soooo many great compliments on them. Plus the company was great to work with when I had a problem.

In order for a 3-way bulb to work, all three contacts must be made. The outside shell is the common, the 'button' at the tip is for one filament, and the 'ring' around the button is for the other filament. If you examine the bottom of a 3-way bulb, you'll see this If the adaptor does not provide a contact for the 'ring' filament, then 3-way bulbs will not work. So it does make a difference! I'm going to try to contact the maker to get an answer.

Yes - but it won't operate like a three-way. It will come on about the second turn (switch) position and go off on the third (I did it recently to three 3-way lamps and it has been working fine - just not as a 3-way) It's at the 60w equivalent. Some LED three-way bulbs are on the market now but expensive - just saw a 30w-60w-75w for about $50. It is taking some time for LED bulbs to come on the market at reasonable price. Some dimmable LEDs are out now but expensive - prices are dropping all the time as more come on the market.

No it doesn't. It only has two contacts to draw the 45watts it uses. That means using it in the 3-way socket would only give you one setting even when turning the switch to the higher settings.

No it has to be mounted Horizontally and you have to have Three feet clearance on one side to be able to pull the bulb out to change it.

No, it does not. It takes two 40 or 60 watt bulbs. I'm not able to check it at the moment.

No it takes the smaller base bulbs .... it comes with 4 and one was broken when it arrived... I keep the smaller based ones for my porch and hallway... but with all 4 lit the room is very bright.

You can put it in a 3-way light socket. However, it will only show one brightness level instead of three. When you turn the light switch, the LED bulb will go ON / ON / OFF / OFF, insteaed of LOW / MID / HIGH / OFF (like when you use a 3-way incandescent bulb).

No, this one is a simple one way switch however there is a three way one at this link- GE 3-Way Lamp Kit, 8-Foot Clear Cord 50960

Not on this swithck if you have a 3 way bulb. If you put a basic bulb in, you will just have to turn the swith more to get it to turn on then off.

If you have a three way switch in the line or lamp after this switch yes. If not your three way bulb will only work on one setting. I believe it will be full on.

They do have 3 way switches but I've only got single wattage bulbs in them. I just noticed the other answers and I'm under the impression if the lamp clicks 3 times before it is off it is a 3 way switch and my lamps do that.
