I think this is a great product, I live in the PNW and it rains pretty much everyday (or at least it feels like that), and people seriously gets the rainy day blues ('cause there's no sun!!!). I have this set up on my desk, and I have it on when I study, it is really neat because it is pretty much the size of an iPad and does not take up much space, on the side there are controls to turn the light on/off, set the timer, and switch between white/blue light; I normally have this set at the 30min mark and just turn it back on once the time is up (I like it on, it makes me feel all bright and stuff).I didnt have this light last year and the rainy season was miserable, I was pretty much depressed the entire time from oct-june, however, since ive gotten this lamp and have been using it, I havent felt depressed, even though i have pretty much the same level if not more stress going on in my life.A little side note, I had started growing a mini table top basil plant that instructed to have the plant sit in direct sunlight when I first bought this light, and since we've hit rainy season, there was no sun, so I just sat it on my desk in front of this happy lamp, and guess what! it sprouted! It's super awesome!
