nice product

5.0 out of 5 stars Controls are tricky, but the instructions are well-written and clarify it.

This is my third or fourth "happy light" over the years. It looks very nice and sleek and works great. The only issue I have is the style takes precedence over the function. The controls are very subdued on the rear of the lamp-- it is tricky to find them by just using the feel. The timer button is really counter-intuitive. I have to crack open the instruction manual to figure our the strange formula of short and long presses to set the time. The instructions are well-written and explain it well, but I would have never been able to set the timer without the directions.The light is plenty bright enough. It has three different color temperatures and three brightness settings.I would have liked a longer cable for it, but it uses a standard USB-C connection, so I have longer cables around.

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost perfect, wish it supported USB-C PD!

The light works great and does the job, and I like that it's very compact, and has multiple color temperatures.I wish it supported USB-C PD so I could use it with any USB power brick. Why include a USB-C charger if the light is not capable of being powered by generic chargers? I see that it runs on 20V 0.8A, so it would be easy enough to charge a few dollars more and support PD, which would make it possible to carry this around with a battery pack, as well as use generic chargers if the OEM one breaks or gets lost.

Solid therapy lamp!

I've been using another lamp from a different company for years now but wanted to try this one as well. I've been using it for several days now and can confirm positive results. What I like:-The unit feels robust and everything feels high quality.-The LED light is perfectly uniform and reveals little to no flickering when I point my camera at it unlike my first SAD lamp.-Choice of 3 tints from white - warm - warmest is an excellent option.-Touch controls work well. Love the timer feature that uses LED lights to show much time is left-Solid stand. One reason I chose this is the other lamps have flimsy looking stands. The only disadvantage is this one is fixed and cannot be adjusted or removed-Completely silent. My first lamp has a hissing sound.-3 year warranty, giving me peace of mind that I can use this for hours on end.-The lamp is just as bright as my other one that is rated at 10,000 lux at 7 inches. The manual says this lamp is rated at 10,000 lux at 6 inches perhaps because of the smaller light area. I prop the lamp on a box and keep it close to my face to achieve this (see picture). But remember, you can keep the lamp further if desired, but you just need to have longer sessions to get the same therapeutic effects.-The benefits I've noticed is that I am more alert and don't easily get sleepy during the day. I also get tired early at night, making it easy to go to bed early, stay asleep, and wake up early. I also notice a better mood overall. When I wake up in the morning and have adjusted to normal indoor light, I then use this lamp at the lowest setting and slowly increase every minute or so until at max brightness. I use the lamp for 1-3 hours in the morning and don't use it past 2pm. My sleep has been amazing also because I don't spend my evenings on a screen anymore but go to sleep early after reading a book.

Works really well

I have never used one of these lights.This is small compared to a lot that is offered which appealed to me. I like the ease of use and the options you have in setting it up to use. You have 4 light strengths and 4 colour shades of light to choose from. How effective less light would be I have no idea. It is bright, but you can start out with a lower setting for light intensity and time and work up to what you need. The booklet is clear in directions and use. Heed the warnings if you have any issues.I bought this in November with skepticism it'd would help, HOWEVER I have found it has helped me through the darker period of winter so far, and I am less dragged down by the grey weather on the coast. Also my sleep has improved incredibly which was a huge surprise for me.I would recommend it, but you have to know it takes awhile - a month or 2 before you may feel some effects.

Perfect, compact, easy, bright!

This light is GREAT. I had an older model of therapy light by Verilux, but after a tumble to the floor, the plug/jack thing was bent and wouldn't work anymore, so I had to replace the light. This time I went with this model and I am SO NOT disappointed. The extra features are great. Love that I can dim the brightness/warm/cool and use it as a room light and not just for therapy. Love that there is a timer. Love how easy it is to use. And the plug/ jack thing is even updated! Definitely a great product. I ordered another!

5.0 out of 5 stars I am SO SAD!!! I got it and was SO HAPPY! The plug was loose I guess :(

Just got this for Christmas and it’s already made my brain work a little better (during winter months for SAD especially)!Update: the USB-c pretty much fell apart when I went to remove the plug to put it away and now I can’t use the lamp at all :( please help?Update again: I tried to use my Apple MacBook charger with the same voltage and it won’t power on the lamp too, so idk if something got screwed up inside of it when I removed the plug but I can’t use the lamp at all - adding pic of plug port

5.0 out of 5 stars Seems to help

So far seems to be working well. I’ve been using for 3 weeks hoping to help with seasonal depression.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST for the PNW

Recent moved to the PNW and this darkness is no joke! This light is affordable and does exactly what it needs to to combat seasonal depression.

Quality issue

2026-03-01    -花

I will never buy this brand's products again. After using it for just over a week, the connector cable broke, and I couldn’t find a similar replacement cable on the market. I contacted HappyLight’s customer service, and they told me to reach out to the Amazon store. However, it seemed that the store name had changed. After mistakenly sending my message to the wrong store, I contacted Amazon customer service, and they helped me get in touch with the current store. But the current store then told me to contact HappyLight headquarters.After going in circles and wasting so much of my time, the issue was never resolved. I ended up just throwing the product away. I'm now using a different brand's floor-standing light therapy lamp, and it works great.
