Fun and functional
This light is great! Love the busy sign i use to let my family know when I'm in meetings. The focus light seems promising. I enjoy the breath work light and the others for stressful or dreary days. Great value in my opinion.

Hurts my eyes
I had high hopes. But this light hurts my eyes if I use it. It is wayyyyyy too bright. Or I have to turn it to the blue or pink light and I see no benefit from it. Waste of money, feels cheap. Cool idea just not worth it and I will never use it

Okay but timer doesn't work
I love the colors, working in an office with no windows, it's nice to have the light. But part of the appeal was being able to set a timer to help me stay on track for a period of time, like an hour, but the time button doesn't do anything. Unfortunate.

Great until it wasn't
I have had this for two or three months now, and unfortunately it has stopped working. I loved it when it worked but now it's useless.

Disappointing
The buttons are not intuitive. It must be plugged in to operate and I’m nervous about the materials being sturdy enough to travel. I thought it charged so that it could work cordless while I was on the road. It’s difficult to get the mode one is looking for with the way it operates. The price point is way too high for a simple light. It does clip easy to the screen...

Excellent for focus, alertness, and meditation
This light has five different features, helping me meet all my needs. The bright light is 10k lumens, which is great when I don't get enough sunlight for an extra energy boost. The box breathing is good for both my clients and me during sessions. They seem to like the mood light features as well.

Potential but missed the mark
I love the touch button simplicity but what would have made this a 5 star product - ability to select time increments for each of the 4 settings. Keep the simple buttons but let the user pick the 10 min increment for focus to finish a quick task and once the light turns off it’s a signal to move to the next task. They can then set the meeting to 30 mins so the light tur...

Excited to give this a try
We haven't had the light long enough to see how beneficial it could be, but just playing around with it has been good so far. One of my favorite features so far is the "breathing" light. I have tried that one a couple of times while I was overwhelmed and it made me smile. Simple, but cool idea. The "focus" I tend to have on the most because it looks fun. I suppose in th...

Handy Thing
I like this light. I am happy to receive it. I especially like the color changing setting. I have used the video lighting and it easily did the trick. I think the sun feature will come in handy in the winter. The busy sign is kind of a lot but I could see someone needing it. I am disappointed to find it doesn’t hold a charge, rather it needs to constantly be plugged in ...

Great Desk Light!
I was surprised on how bright the light can get as soon asI plugged it into my laptop. Having the “Busy” light definitely helps as others walking into my office can see it immediately.I should have bought 2!

Nice features
The device has a variety of nice features. I bought it for the portability and the sun shine light but also really enjoy the focus light while working.
Down Sides: would love for it to have had a chargeable battery on board, a place to keep/ hide the cord, and a notch in the clip so the cord could more easily go under it and allow for better grip on the laptop screen...

Honestly, not great.
It doesn’t sit well on my screen. The buttons are on an awkward position. I’m regretting this purchase immensely

Cool concept especially working from home
The bright red BUSY lights is so useful when I’m doing something or in a meeting to notify others in my house to not interrupt. I like the color changes to help give me good lighting in meetings and also to help me relax and rejuvenate.

OK Not great
I'd like to get it on top of my monitor, but it does not fit. It's an Apple Cinema display.

I like it
Overall good webcam light with some extra useful features. Only issue I have with it is where the usb cable to power it is located. I can't get it to fit well on the top of my monitored while plugged in because there isn't enough space for the cable.

Potential to be useful, if I could power the thing
I ordered the bundle that came with the 6’ USB-C cable and power block, as I needed a longer cable for the device to sit on the desk with the rest of my peripherals. I opened the packaging and set everything up, only to find it wasn’t drawing power from the Staples-branded cable and block. I tried a shorter cable I had laying around, which worked, but that means I can...

Nice Light
Lots of lighting modes, like the fold down stand. Wish had built in battery. Wish was a little heavier.
