Amazon.com Review
Sleek and modern, Adesso's Eternity Gooseneck desk lamp gets right to the business of effective task lighting. The satin-steel body features a tall round base, slender adjustable neck, and oval head that work together to provide reliable steadiness and maximum flexibility. Simply stretch and twist the lamp to the desired angle, flip the on/off toggle switch, and get to work. The 20 LED lights provide clear, cool illumination while using the bare minimum of electricity--so, what's good for the eyes is also good for the wallet! (Or is it, "What's good for the goose is good for the gander?" Which brings us back to the lamp's name...) This compact piece measures 3 inches in diameter by up to 18 inches high. --Kara Karll

adesso eternity does not last
I purchased one of these about 6 months ago on a closeout sale from a local Fortunoffs store. It was good at first, with the exception that there is a lot of glare from the sides because the LED's are not recessed far enough. Other than that it ran cool and provided ample light for my needs. The length of the goose neck was not a problem and it supported the head well at a variety of angles without sagging. The problem is that it lasted less than 100 hours. The LED's began failing one row of 4 at a time till now only 1 LED flickers when you turn it on, the remaining 19 are off. Just before posting this review, I sent an e-mail to Adesso to see what they can do about it. Had it not failed, I would have given it 4 stars (I deduct 1 star for the side glare problem).

Here is the follow up:
This is a follow up to the review I wrote a few days ago. I just spoke to Kavita Bora, who is a customer service manager for Adesso, Inc. about my "eternity" lamp lasting less than 100 hours. Her response was that they offer no warranty on their items to the end user at all. There is no warranty registration card that comes with the item for this reason. She admitted that they often receive defective merchandise from their manufacturer in China and they only do returns to the retailers they do business with. The customers only recourse is through the retailer they purchaed the item from, the manufacturer, Adesso, Inc. will not stand behind the product at all. I cannot recommend anyone buy this product, or any other Adesso, Inc. product for this reason. I would like to lower my rating from 2 stars to 1 star, but I can't figure out how to do that.

Good at first...until the LEDs fail
I have to agree with the previous review. This was a great lamp for the first month that I had it. However, a single row of LEDs has begun to flicker and after reading the previous review, I am aware of what is to come. I cannot recommend this for anyone, especially for this price!

Nice lamp for considerate people
If you have need of light in a focused area that won't disturb those around you, this is it. I didn't realize that limitation when I purchased it. If you need more light than that, get one of their gooseneck floorlamps - I also have that and love it.
