which is the best lamp for the cheaper money

I don't have a answer to that too. I like mine and got it on sale at Joanns, 50% off sale so it was wonderfully priced. I have had no problems with my lamp. There are adjustments to tighten the lamp part so it stays up, I don't use the Magnifier all the time but it is nice when I do need to use it. Love it.

I do not have the answer to that. I will say the magnifier I purchased I sent back. The lamp would not stay up and the magnifier just was not in the right location for comfort. I have an old OTTLite that just flips up and I use it all the time and love it. Just a basic lamp. Hope this helps.

forget about this. If you realy want high effencency go HID. You dont have to pay a lot. The cheapest one worth high price tag. I've tried both.

This lamp works good with OPI Pro gels. The pro lamp is probably faster and will last a lot longer but the cheaper one works good.

It depends on which one you order. If you notice there are two of the same exact style lamp so it's your choice, one says "40W Bulb not included" the slightly higher priced one says "40W bulb included".

I have two of these lamps. My bulbs are still good but here what i would do-- I just searched amazon for "300w cfl" and several products came up. I would probably get the "Square Perfect Professional Quality 85 Watt Compact Fluorescent Full Spectrum Photo Bulb Photography" Best of luck to you!

There are various options as you might have already seen. Unfortunately most lamps will only last 1 to 1 1/2 years. Prices vary, but there are good selections both here at amazon and ebay. Make sure you buy the complete assembly, it is much easier to replace and you don't save much when you only buy the bulb. Select the vendor with the best ratings seems to work the best.

You should use the 36 inch one if you are going to use this lamp. Though if you are looking for a slimmer look I'd say look in to the Zoo Med Reptisun LED UVB.

I also purchased this lamp from Amazon. You get what you pay for mine was defective it's best to buy a branded name such as Phillips it costs probably about $122 but it's a good lamp the other ones are Junk. I had called the repairman out to see what was wrong with my tv, because I had just put this lamp into our tv one month before. The repairman said to always order a brand name lamp...these are made in Mexico and are cheap. They don't cost that much, but the company that they are from....sell lots because they are cheap, but they are not quality lamps. Don't know if there is a warranty, doubt it....don't know if Amazon stands behind them or not. I also purchased this lamp from Amazon.

Yes you can.Do you want the standard lamp (6,000 pulses) for $70, or, Quartz lamp (120,000 pulses) $225?

This is a great lamp for just this type of use. My wife loves this lamp and uses it daily for her reading, etc. Great buy, you will enjoy this lamp. I like the way you can adjust the position of the lamp to give you the best light where needed.

Well, the Mj-872 is NOT the brightest light but for the money it is the best all around. Some of their dual lights have more Lumins and more spread but cost a little more.

Hey Benjamin There is a side-by-side comparison of the various lamps Philips makes at the end of the listing for the HF3470. It looks like it boils down to this: The HF3470 has a replaceable bulb (what that entails, I couldn't tell you. It looks like the HF3520 must be a "forever" bulb). The HF 3470 has a "sunrise simulation" which I dig, and helps me wake up more naturally, which is what I bought the product for in the first place, so that was important to me, but is it for you? Lastly, the HF3470 has 2 sound simulations whereas the HF3520 has 5. I wouldn't call that particular facet a deal breaker. It looks to boil down to the idea of the sunrise simulation and is that worth roughly $60 for you? Happy shopping.

Get it from ABC Market. It's worth the extra money, which I think is about 5.00. The person that Amazon uses sent me the wrong things (floor lamps instead of table lamps) and I had to send it back. ABC Market is very reliable. Can't remember who the manufacturer is. They are very nice though and are actual glass crystals

Yes but it is a very expensive option. I found an excellent magnifying lamp from harbor freight for about 20.00 ( on sale and 25% off coupon) normally about 39.00. The only potential drawback is that it is florescent if that is an issue for you.

I've gone through 3 lamps and finally gave up and bought an led one from another company but I can't remember the name of the company. It cost about the same as the 2 bulbs I bought for the Fluval mini . . . I'd never buy that light again. What a rip off

you can get the 25 w light bulbs at Wal-mart much cheaper, I use the ones that are 40w and shaped like a flame, this gets the lamp nice and warm, Make sure you only put it on about half way using the dimmer because these will get very warm but from what I have read about these lights they need to be warm to do what they say they do.

My experience is that if you put a higher watt bulb in you run the risk of damaging the lamp. I would stick with the two 35 watt bulbs.
