Let me start by saying these lamps are a multitasker's dream! The dual AC outlets and USB ports (including USB-C!) mean I can charge my phone, tablet, and laptop all from my nightstand - goodbye to the dreaded 'cord spaghetti' under my bed.

The three color temperatures are perfect for different moods. I use warm white for bedtime reading, daylight white when I'm working from bed (we've all been there), and the brightest setting when I'm searching for that missing earring at 7am.

Now about that built-in phone holder - it's become my favorite feature. No more fumbling for my phone in the dark when the alarm goes off. Though fair warning: like some reviewers mentioned, the pen holder is a bit shallow. My pens do tend to flop over like tired sunflowers.

The design is sleek enough to blend with my modern bedroom decor, but I can see it working in a dorm or office too. The beige shade gives off such a soft, pleasant glow - way better than harsh overhead lights at night.

One minor gripe? Quality control seems hit or miss based on reviews (and my own experience). One of my lamps had a slightly loose USB port that needed some wiggling to work right - nothing deal-breaking but worth noting.

Overall? For the price, these lamps pack serious functionality. They've become my bedside command center - charging station, reading light, and midnight hydration reminder (that 'cup holder' fits my water bottle perfectly). Just maybe keep your favorite pens elsewhere!
