Just what we needed
October 4, 2011
This clip light is PERFECT for use during middle of the night diaper changes. We clipped it to the changing table and it emits a LOT of light where we need it so it doesn't wake up the other twin and doesn't shine in the baby's eyes we are changing. Very nice product/well designed. Worth the money.

Dorm clip light
September 26, 2011
The head is too heavy for the flexible stem. When positioned, it falls out of position due to the weight of the bulb portion. We kept it but are not satisfied.

Got this for dorm room
September 8, 2011
I got this for my dorm to save space on my desk and also because I liked the mobility of it (for instance, to clip it to my desk or move it to the top of my bunk). However, the "neck" is not as malleable or sturdy as it seems, which limits the ways you can adjust it. The cord is plenty long and a bulb is included; I found the light a little harsh, so I switch it out with a softer light and am pretty pleased- can't wait to take it to college, bc despite it's flaws, it seems pretty versatile but also stylish.

Perfect
September 7, 2011
I actuallty bought this for my 28 year old husband. He needed a reading lamp for his side of the bed. Its great because he can turn the head away from me while I'm sleeping. The cord is very long, which is great when the plug isnt right there. I think teh clamp would clamp onto something more than 2 inches, even though it says thats the max.

Need to go back to the drawing board on this one
September 6, 2011
I ordered the clip light for my daughter's dorm room. The bendable neck of the lamp would not hold a position, any position - it would just droop. I was very surprised and disappointed, especially since it is not an inexpensive item. Years ago I ordered a similar clip on style lamp from Pottery Barn and it was just great - maybe it was made of sturdier material back then. Unfortunately, we had to return this item. It would have been perfect had it worked as described.

Just what we needed!
July 8, 2011
I bought this light to clip onto my daughter's bed for reading. I ordered the plum colored one and the color is spot on. I also loved that the clip has a protective coating of foam to protect the furniture that you clip it to.
The only downside was not knowing what kind of lightbulb to get..It took me a while to find the right one and it cost me $15. (The lamp clearly states 60w type G- I had no idea what that meant)
My only wish is that the white lamp was shipped to all states and not just CA.

Fire Hazard!
June 2, 2011
We purchased this clip light to save space onour daughter's nightstand. We had to return it as the light got so hot it heated the short stack of books that was directly under it. And I was afraid it would either burn my kid's hand when she tried to adjust the angle or else it would start a fire with teh books underneath. I definitely would NOT recommend this lamp. It's a potential fire hazard or 3rd degree burn waiting to happen! Note: we didn't even use the higher wattage lightbulb recommended and it got too hot.

Like it but it's heavy...
April 4, 2011
I bought two of these for my two daughters (ages 6 and 12). We love the bright colors and the ability to clip it on to a bed for a reading lamp. It's sturdy and nicely made. My only surprise was the heaviness of the lamp "head". If you try to turn the lamp to face more "up" towards the ceiling, the head of the lamp tips over and leans downwards again. The wire/cable is not quite strong enough to allow it to be put in positions where it has to fight gravity.....that disappointed my 12 yr old a little bit because she can't make it stand up better; it just tips over. All the same, we kept both lamps (pink and blue) because they are quite handy and nicely made otherwise. But I would have preferred knowing that about it before I purchased it...(I suppose you can kind of tell that because the photo only shows the lamps with the head facing downwards).

Great little reading lamp
March 31, 2011
My 9 year old son and I read together in his bed every night before he goes to sleep. We struggled with getting a bedside lamp that could look nice and provide the right amount of light for us to see what we were reading. This lamp fits the bill perfectly. We attached it to his headboard and the easily bendable neck makes it simple to adjust where we need the light. I bought 2 thinking we'd need one on either side of the bed to see well, but 1 actually works just fine. I'm using the other one in my daughter's room now. Thanks!

Will Return
March 11, 2011
Awful lamp. It doesn't stay in it's place if you want it up. Nice concept and look, but will be returning it. Also, it requires a special kind of light bulb. Not worth it!

I shouldn't have been surprised
February 16, 2011
Like many of the other reviews have said:
1. The clip on base WILL scratch the furniture. I'm going to get some felt to pad the shelf it will clip on to. But beware! I comes with some foam on the clip part, but it doesn't pad the part the will scratch.
2. The neck doesn't support the light in all positions. It is a little bit droopy. We've managed to make it work though.
3. It is a good looking lamp.

Very useful light!
February 15, 2011
My daughter loves this clip lamp, its well made and works well. We currently clipped it to her bookshelf which we placed a new butterfly chair next to for a reading nook or to hang out and do homework. When we decide to move her room around it is easy to move around or even take with you for example on a trip if want or need it!

Do these even work?
January 13, 2011
I have had these since Christmas and am unable to use. These need require a "60 watt 120 volt E27 G Type Bulb. After searching high and low to find this special bulb, the shipping cost is ridiculous! The lowest price I found was $33.40 for 4 bulbs; the shipping was $47.50! I now have 4 bulbs that do not FIT into the light. I need to contact PB Customer Service to find out what the problem is. I will then have to either return the lights OR the bulb. A lot of hassle for something that should be soooooo simple.

worst piece of junk I ever bought
January 9, 2011
Super disappointed in this light. First of all. it did not clip on the 2" bed frame headboard that it said it would fit. No problem, we attached a small piece of wood to clip it to. The flexible gooseneck is so weak and crummy that it wont even hold the weight of the lamp up. The only way this is useful is if you are going to hang it clip end up and bulb down and dont need to move it at all. Also the bulb gets way too hot. Very disappointed in this useless piece of Junk. I wish I had saved the box and the invoice to return it. NOT Pottery Barn Quality at all!

CUTE AND USEFUL!!
December 30, 2010
I got this as a gift. I love the color and the cute design. It's bright and perfect for reading next to your bed, which is what I needed it for. It's a fantastic gift for people who need a lamp, but with a little added cuteness. I heard that the bulb was a bit hard to find but with some online searching of the model # you can easily find one online. I would HIGHLY recommend it.

JUNK
December 26, 2010
Purchased a green and pink light for my girls for Christmas with hopes of clipping them to their headboards for reading books. Upon arrival, the green light was missing rubber padding inbetween the clips to prevent scratching the headboard. The pink one had the padding, but the goose neck would not "form" in anyway. The neck on both lamps continually fall down. Completely useless and had two disappointed kids on Christmas night.

Love how bright it is
December 2, 2010
The cip light fit my expectations and I was pleased with what I got! The only negative was that it is REALLY hard to find a proper fitting bulb for. After looking online with no results, I had to go to a few hardware stores before I found one that had a bulb that would work, but still wasn't the right size. Oh well, it works and that's all I care about.
I love how bright this lamp is though! It is great to use for reading in my bed.
You can tell it's also good quality and really well made; just like PBteen products always are.

Hi Light Clip Light
November 14, 2010
I have one clipped to my desk and my bed and it works rly well. I have pink and green and it looks great! It can hold its self up without sagging. The colors are rly cute 2! The only thing is the top round colored part gets rly hot after a while but its not a problem for me. Probably not great for little girls.
