This is mostly great, I've found it much more effective than the smaller (and much lower priced) units on the market. Wish I had upgraded to this long ago.

A few things to know though: This is literally just the upright Boxelight you see for sale under a different product name, but with two additional legs packed into the outside cardboard box it's delivered in. So if you are torn about which one to get, GET THIS ONE. You can always stop using the legs and just flip it on the shorter side and voila, regular Boxelight. (Pretty sure they are priced similarly.)

Why the legs? I was excited to try this angled down at my eyes as I heard that is most effective. I've been using it for a few weeks now and it is indeed very effective, but no matter how well I think I've twisted the bolts to secure the legs, this thing is constantly making noise as if it were "settling" and not standing entirely stable. Just random little cracks and pops as I type on the table on my laptop. It's driving me mildly crazy but I guess I can either deal or try removing the legs and standing it on its side as I suggested above.

You also can go on the manufacturer website and buy an upright stand to hold this several feet off the ground, but I believe it was in the $100 range just for the stand. (?!?!) So this is a good starter option.

What can I say? It works. Used as instructed. I noticed within a week. More energy, brighter mood...but you have to keep using it or the effect stops.

This light changed my life. After only twenty minutes of use I fell asleep that night and woke up rested and refreshed. Until then I haven't slept well in years. Love it!

A true lifesaver for people suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder. Highly recommend!

This thing actually works! It not only kept me in a good mood throughout the winter but it also helped with my sleep habits and made it easier to fall asleep and wake up on time. I just turn it on for 15-20 minutes in the morning while I'm checking my email.
