Highlights
Quality
Works great for crafts, is very light weight, and good magnification.
Easy to use, comfortable to wear and it increases the comfort and pleasure of leisure activities, such as knitting and needlepoint

Price
I am pleased with this light-weight, inexpensive light.
A bit overpriced for what you get, but i will definitely keep it.
Shipping
It came quickly and in good shape
Competitiveness
For these reasons, i bought this one, assuming an ottlite product would be good.
I had another brand that i bought at a local store.
