Visiondecor and the Unofficial Table Lamp Buying Check List
Buying a table lamp is a simple task, but making the wrong choice may affect your health if you decide to just pick one up at the local store. Here are the top 3 specifics you should consider wanting in a lamp when you are picking out your new table lamp to suit your needs when there are so many to choose from.
#1 – Heavy weighted base – for balance and stability. It is important for a base of a lamp to be bottom heavy to avoid any tipping, as I’ve even seen some lamps tip over, just by tugging on the light switch chain. So be sure it is described as being heavy weighted base.
#2 – Wattage for reading or just casual light? – if you intend fo the light for reading, then be sure it emits 100 watts of light, or if you are eco-conscious, be sure it can take one of those light saving bulbs.
#3 – Style – is just as important as light draws attention to it. The last thing you need is a bright red lamp shade light drawing attention away from your cool colored based style home. At any rate, look for nice lighting with a balance of style that blends into your current decor.
These are just a few of the top things to consider, and of course price is of the essence too. So set a budget and ensure you get the most quality and service out of what you are paying for. Feel free to leave any comments or further suggestions regarding your experience in purchasing a table lamp.
