Customer Review: Poor Quality-Avoid At All Costs
Summary: 1 Stars
You'd be better off with a candle or an old flashlight, or to just not bother reading in the dark.
My wife bought this for me as a gift (and to help her sleep better) and at first I was impressed with the design, but after a few minutes I realized that the blue light shining in my eyes was really annoying. A bit of black electrical tape fixed that, but it makes you wonder if the designer ever used a book light. It looks slick, but functionally, ahhhh, not so good. And the clip is certainly not for use with a BOOK. You know, the thing in the name of the item, a *BOOK* Light?
Well, I could forgive bad design, that is a common failing of product design, but after a week or so of using it the lights went out. I noticed that by jiggling it around in the stand that it was never recharging at all and that if I held it at an angle it would charge up. But I'm not going to hold it while it recharges, so I put a rubber band on it to hold it at the correct angle. But after a few days that no longer worked. So, not only is the design pretty but nonfunctional, but the build quality is terribly bad.
So. I'm left with an expensive angled flashlight that doesn't work. Flashlights, how long have their been flashlights? 100 years? More? A lamp, some batteries, some wire. A flashlight. In an age when we can jam more computing power than existed on the entire earth a generation ago into a device that fits in the palm of you hand, we have a company that can't even make a flashlight that works. I wish I could give it a zero rating, or a negative rating.
Yes, it looks nice, but avoid it, you may or may not get one that works, is it worth the hassle it for a flashlight? Me? I'm so PO'd that I'll never buy another product from this company and I'll tell anyone who listens to avoid them, too. Maybe if enough people avoid their products they'll be no more and a company that knows how to design a book light will arise!
I can dream, can't I?
