I know this topic has been covered before but I finally went out yesterday and treated myself to a floor model OTT light. WOW - what a difference. I hand-sew and had a floor light over each shoulder before. Now I just have the OTT light and see much better. Wish I could re-do the house with them - in only they weren't so expensive :dance:

I agree Marion. They are just brilliant. I have two, and I would never be without them. The older I get, the more I need better light. I love the way they don't get hot, especially in our Aussie summers.
I haven't bought an actual Ott light yet, but a few months back I started using a natural light desk lamp and oh my GOSH did it make all the difference in the world!! I can't hand sew with out it now, it's a total necessity.
Since then I've tried out a few different brands and levels of natural light bulbs to see which ones I really like the most. Some are warmer, some a little too intense. You can find the bulbs most anywhere now, might be another option for you...until you can OTT the whole house
:hug:

And they do have such attractive Home Decor looking lamps now (desk & floor) unlike just a few years ago when they were all the work-station-styling.
Enjoy!!
Oh, I know Bobbie, I've seen the decorative ones and want one desperately. Right now I just tote the one that I have from my sewing room to my living room and back. Maybe Santa will think I've been extra good this year?
Lisa-I will tell Santa that you are such a good girl-sending Nips to that lady in Canada who was going through withdrawal! You deserve at least 2 of those lights!! Sincerely Jane D.
I had already been using the daylight lightbulbs in my two lamps but find the difference between them and OTT amazing. :dance: I think I'm going to need one of them for my sewing machine next.

Hi Marion, Never heard of OTT lighting, but will check out. I find my eyes get a little older...every year, and working at nite is almost impossible for me now.
Jo... I got mine at Canadian Tire. They had different sizes and they are prices ($130) but well-worth it! Absolutely glare free.
