Great product. Well designed. Better than a table lamp if you read in bed, and much easier on your non-reading sleeping partner--which is probably the main reason for buying this product.
I bought another, smaller, clip-on Glocusent model on the basis of a favorable review in the NY Times. I liked it, but the level of the light varies somewhat across the page, especially with thick books. (Not the product's fault, I don't think they can solve that problem and keep the advantages of the basic design.) This larger unit solves that problem. Keep the smaller one for travel, or for kids riding in the back seat of the car at night, or just to keep in various handy places. I bought it on impulse, not sure if I would use it much or not, but I find myself using both units much more than I expected, not only just for reading in bed before sleep. It actually helps ordinary reading in daylight. Besides those who read in bed, it's not a bad idea for hobbyists or for older people who read a lot, but whose eyes are not what they used to be.
And they have good customer service. I thought I had a problem--light brown patches in the light. I reached out to customer service by email and they responded within 24 hours. It turned out. (I had not removed the protective plastic film before using. It's easy to miss. Be sure to remove it before using.)
Final tip: Cross the lights in front of you so the right light shines on the left page and the left light shines on the right page. It gives a bigger, more consistent field of illumination.
