My plants love the programmable 8 hours of light they receive each evening from this lamp. It has so many great setting you can customize. Haven't used the timer function yet.

The arms are very bendy but sturdy. The octopus arms are great and when i put this in the middle.

It flickers and goes off. If you tilt too far back, the metal joint cuts the cord. Even though the main bulk of them live in my dining room between two windows i felt that they weren't getting enough light.

The timer is not dependable. The control now malfunctions every day. The timer works sometimes. I won't rebuy this brand.

If you have indoor plants, these are a must have. The built-in timer function is really nice so i can set it before leaving for my day. The 10 brightness levels lets me pick the right one depending on how close they are to the plant.

The clamp is quite strong and there are multiple settings that are easy to use, so those are the good parts. The other pros are that it is affordable.
