WBM Salt Lamp - USB Himalayan Salt Lamp with Touch Dimmer Control, Natural Pink Crystal, 5-7 lbs, Wooden Base, LED Bulb, Room Decor, Home Decor, Relaxation, Ambiance, Gift

I've been wanting one of these lamps for a long time. I promised myself as soon as the price got within my range, it would be mine. So many people had good things to say about the WBM brand as well, I kept looking at those lamp options. I am SO glad that I bought it. It arrived today. The box had a tear in the lid. The lamp had a chunk broken off of it as well. (A fairly substantial piece, yet I did not feel it mattered enough to return the lamp. See photos.) The lamp is MUCH heavier than I had expected, so that was a surprise. You would definitely not want to place this where it could be knocked off or tipped over easily, or over a glass shelf. In our case, we have curious cats, so its final place will need to be where the cats cannot rub on it and tip it over or knock it off onto something else. The base is very sturdy and looks nice. Mine is a medium brown tone and would fit in about any décor. I love the natural look of the lamp. (I have photos of the lamp both on and off - please check the additional photos in the item description.) I really look forward to seeing how it looks at night in a dark room. Some of the things in the tiny print in the usage manual include not using it outside, and to always use a placemat or coaster due to the salt "sweating" and possibly damaging furniture. Right now, mine is on a surface that won't matter, but it is worth mentioning, in case you might have plans to place it on a good end table or bookcase. In my case, this is going to be in my bedroom, and I already have an orange bedspread, so it fits right in. However, I would love this no matter what colors I had in my room. The height and size varies naturally, so no two lamps will be alike. Mine is approximately 8.25" tall (including the base), and fits well into the bedroom. It seems to be about 4.5" wide. I love all the natural crags and crevaces of the lamp. The backside of mine is flat, but that's okay too. I am using the original night light (which is replaceable either to change colors or replace a burned out light), and the lamp gives off a very pleasant orange/peach glow. I like just looking at it too, and will probably stare at it a little more in the dark! Ha! As far as freshening the air with the negative ions - it is too soon to tell, so I'll update my review once I feel we've had time to feel a difference. Our bedroom is not huge (maybe 10x11), so 2-3 weeks should be enough time to feel any breathing differences. Both my daughter and I have asthma and allergies. The cats are in and out of here all day long as well, so anything it can do to help is going to be great. I've read both good and bad about the negative ion thing and asthma, so I have placed it away from where my head will actually be in bed. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase, and will probably be buying more as the money allows. The look alone is enough to please me, and I do hope the salt lives up to the claims on the air freshening. UPDATE AUG 2011: We now have THREE of these lamps. Yes, they seem to do that much good for the air quality. We have a very small place, and despite changing the filters monthly, is the most dusty place in which I've ever lived. Since using these lamps, I no longer experience that burning in my sinuses that I had before. Each lamp received has been very different, with the last one being the lightest in color. However, as long as they are all a chunk of the salt, and they do their job, I can live with that. I want to get a smaller one for our bathroom as well. NOTE: When replacing the bulbs, they use a bulb just like a Christmas tree light. HOWEVER - most holiday lights are only 4 watts. You will NOT get the air purifying effect with that - it will be a decorative light only. The salt has to get warm to help filter the air, and that only happens with a 15-watt bulb. They are available in 2-packs at WalMart, and I am sure many other places. Just check on your wattage if your lamp does not seem to be doing much.

I'm very pleased with the quality of this lamp and will purchase more, for other areas of my home. It arrived on time, packaged appropriately and securely, and in prefect condition. The weight indicated on the box is 7-11 pounds (because they are all different), and mine weighs about 9 lbs and is 9" tall and (approx) 5" wide, feels heavy and sturdy, and looks symmetrical, although somewhat flat on the back, which is perfectly fine because if I want to turn it around, it actually has 2 different looks. I've had it lit for about a month and there is no "sweating" or moisture on it. That may change when our weather becomes humid. If necessary, I'll put a coaster under it, as recommended. The information pamphlet packaged with it says this size is suitable for an office or cubicle. I use it in my bedroom, which is larger than a "cubicle", so my next purchase will be a larger lamp, and I'll use this one in a smaller room. The instructions for replacing the bulb, should I ever have to, are clear and it's a simple process. The bulbs can be purchased separately here on Amazon. Each lamp is a bit different. Mine is a beautiful amber/peach color; looks very much like the one pictured, and produces a warm glow, rather than bright light. It can be dimmed very low for use as a night light. I leave mine fully lit 24/7 to ensure that I get all of the health benefits it offers. (I'm not sure if that's necessary, since I can't actually SEE the negative ions that it emits, to know if it's working right or not. :-) ) But the light is pleasing and doesn't bother me, so I do it anyway. :-) Since I purchased this lamp specifically for the health benefits, (and was pleasantly surprised by it's beauty and quality!) I should mention that I have indeed noticed that I am much less stuffy when I wake up in the morning. The base is exactly the same as pictured and is very nice hardwood, sanded smooth and clear coated. The cord is extra long, sturdy, and heavy duty. The dimmer switch is also nice quality and works very well. I was pleasantly surprised by the beauty and quality of this lamp, given the price, and look forward to purchasing more of them.

Primo:j'ai commandé cette lampe en même temps que ma lampe Verilux vendredi soir et j'ai eu les deux samedi matin! C'est un record, même avec Prime! Secundo : soigneusement emballées, les deux sont arrivées impeccables, prêtes à être utilisées tout de suite. Tertio : cette lampe est unique, faite à la main, de très belle forme, exactement comme je l'ai désirée. Elle diffuse la lumière douce et chaude, qui fait du bien et declanche un sourire intérieur. Je me moque de preuves scientifiques, si sont valables ou non, je ressens tout simplement qu'elle me fait du bien et m'apporte l'apaisement et de la joie. A souligner aussi, que la possibilité de réglage d'intensité de sa lumière est très, très très appréciée! C'est une lampe magique, à recommander à 100%!🤗

Wow ! Beautiful and relaxing. Not sure about health benefits in my case, but so many people claim they see benefits it's hard not to believe. I noticed a fresher air in the house...no more dog odor...since when I smell the lamp at close range ( 1 feet or less ) I sent a salt odor it's plausible that it purify air by releasing a small amount of ions salt in the air... Excellent quality versus another salt lamp that I have buy on amazon and return the same day I have received it. Very good protective packaging, it arrive in perfect condition. Instructions booklet include with interesting fact and advice. Excellent quality at a very good price. I will probably buy another one for a gift a soon as they will be available again on amazon.ca Buy it and you will love it.

Elle est très bien et contente de mon achat.

This came and worked for about 10 seconds. What as waste

I bought this because my mother recommended I have one or two in the house. While I can't entirely comment on the effects of the product, I can for the quality. I was very excited to get this because it would be a surprise as to how it looked. And I was not disappointed. It has a beautiful shape. Nice and natural looking. The light reaches all the way through with no overly dark patches. The cord is long enough and has a dimmer knob which I find fantastic. Nice night light at dimmer settings. The salt part doesn't get hot and neither does the cord.
