Simple Designs LD1003-WHT Basic Metal Desk Lamp with Flexible Hose Neck for Office, Living Room, Bedroom, College Dorm, Bookshelf, White (Pack of 1)

Update 11/19/2025: This lamp stopped working today, it just won't turn on. I turned it off last night and tried to turn it on today and nada. I tried 2 different light bulbs in it and still doesn't work. I bought it in February 2025 and it is November 2025. 10 months, it worked for only 10 months. I had LED bulbs in it so it can't be from overheating. I haven't dropped it, or abused it. It has sat on my desk. It just stopped working. Don't purchase this lamp it worked well for a while and failed without warning. I won't buy this brand again!! I like this little lamp. But I liked my old one better, I am looking for a lamp kit to repair the old one. This little lamp bends only in the top half of the stem. My old one would bend anywhere from the base to the top and any which way, I think the socket in my old one finally gave up the ghost, It was 10 years old or so, but I'm going to see if I can get a lamp kit for it, until then this one is a good stand in. It was priced decently. It's a decent lamp for a decent price, however I believe it was on sale when I bought it. I like the on/off switch where it is on the top of the lamp base. It is easy to turn on and off. The light bulb doesn't flicker at all when it's on, that I can see. The materials seem to be of good quality even at half the size of my old one. I'm not impressed with the way the goose neck is designed, like I said it only bends at the top not the whole length of the goose neck. The utility of this lamp is restricted because of that. The ones closer to what I had are priced at 39.00 to 150.00 and I refuse to pay it.

Using with a 10 watt LED grow bulb to light up the side of my fish tank, amazing results and great to finally find a solution for a bulb that runs extremely hot. My 10 watt LED grow bulb puts out a massive amount of heat for such a small bulb, and I could not put it on any kind of Base or build any kind of sturdy and dependable wait to prop it up to light up my fish tank, so I took a chance on this gooseneck lamp and for over a month it has not had a single hiccup. I like the fact that it focuses the brightness appropriately, the build quality of the metal seems good, but most importantly the area around the bulb is cool enough to touch, which is amazing considering how much heat the bulb puts out. I would definitely order these from my other tanks! And since I don't use dimmer switches I like the fact that it's an easy on-off switch at the base of the lamp which has inappropriate amount of weight so it will not shift or tip over.

Since I haven't bought the bulb yet, I can't evaluate the performance of this lamp. But I already really like its appearance. A fairly heavy stand will prevent it from jumping around the table or falling over. A flexible stand firmly holds the metal lampshade in a given position. The length of the cord is about 130 cm or 4.3 feet. There are a few minor chips in the coating on the inside of the lampshade, but I hope this will not affect the functionality of the lamp. The price is just great for such a quality item. The lamp is packed in a manufacturer's box, another seller's box, and finally in an Amazon box. Cool! Heartfelt thanks to the manufacturer and seller for a quality and beautiful item!

This lamp is so easy to set up. It looks nice, and it is great quality. The gooseneck is very good, and it doesn't droop at all. It has held in the same spot for over a month. However, the neck isn't fully attached at the top and bottom, but you can just move it back into position. After I've fixed it, the problem hasen't appeared. It is very bright and works perfectly other than the issue with the gooseneck.

I was looking for a compact lamp for my reading corner, and I ended up choosing the Simple Designs LD1003-BLK. The design of the lamp itself is, well, quite plain, really simple. But I didn’t intend to admire it; I need it for reading in the evenings. It’s a classic and very affordable lamp. I mentioned the black color earlier, and the flexible neck is also handy: the 60-watt bulb is pretty bright, and I can easily tilt the lamp so it doesn’t strain my eyes. In a few reviews here, people mention that this lamp has survived multiple falls, and that's true—although it’s made of inexpensive materials, it’s quite sturdy. Overall, this is the most ordinary desk lamp in the world, without any frills. Cheap and cheerful, and it gets the job done.

I do a lot of sewing and this lamp is GREAT. I can see what I am sewing and fits on my table so well. It is light weight and so easy to use. I recommend this light to anyone. You can use it for a desks, garage, hallway and other areas. I enjoy this light very much. It is perfect for me. I highly recommend to anyone.

This little lamp puts out a lot of light either for spot work or ambient lighting, choose the bulb accordingly. I need this sturdy, little lamp for both kinds of lighting so I use a bright white fluorescent coil bulb and I couldn’t be happier. There is one “on/off” switch and a long bendable neck. For ambient light I turn the lamp towards an opposing wall and the reflected light casts a pleasant shadowy, gentle light great for watching a movie on a large or small screen. There is no flickering whatsoever. It is exactly what I needed. A do-it-all lamp, simple to operate, adjustable and inexpensive. Arrived quickly and well packaged.

The perfect lamp for my desktop. It's small enough to place on my desk while I use my laptop. I put a 60 watt LED bulb in it, and it's amazingly bright. The gooseneck is easy to bend to just the right angle. There was no assembly required other than inserting the bulb, it was ready to go right out of the box. The on/off switch is right there on the base. Everything about this little lamp, including the price, is perfect.

It's simple, it works as it should & I'm glad they still make simply designed products. Thank you!

Poor quality as the plug is US type and bulb was rotation type

Excelente lámpara, la tengo en mi escritorio y se ve genial, los colores están muy bonitos y combinan con mi escritorio. Funciona como debe de ser, es muy simple de diseño y minimalista lo que a mí me gusta. Creo que el precio es muy barato para el producto ya que a diferencia de muchas del mismo precio o incluso más caras puedes rotarla para apuntar el foco a diferentes direcciones, que es algo que yo buscada. En general recomiendo mucho este producto y recomendaría ponerle un foco rgb para que se vea más impresionante aún.

Hola amigos, la compre para poder estudiar sin necesidad de prender toda la luz del cuarto para mi escritorio es buena, de fiero y resistente. No viene con bombilla pero eso no es problema. Sugiero usar foco blanco (no el tradicional que genera calor ya que se podria calentar) viene con sus leyendas de precaucion. Yo compre un foco de LED en 45 pesos en Walmart, es mejor que los ahorradores blancos tradiciones pero tambien son buenos ya que no generan calor. Lo recomiendo amigos suerte.

Resistente, se mueve con facilidad, se sostiene. El cable es grueso. Ya tengo mas de un año y aún funciona muy bien.
