Very poor quality, would not not work, could not repair
After assembly lights would not come on. Instructions said to remove diffuser screen by removing 4 plastic screws to check that lights were firmly in. However all 4 screws were stripped and would not remove (video).The base of the feet is certain to scratch any scratchable surface you place the light on. 3 of the 4 legs had a small insert to prevent scratching, but the 4th leg was missing the insert, which was not in the box. The insert on another leg was so loose it kept falling out.There was an unidentified rectangular metal piece in the box for which there was not identification or instruction.The stand is awkward and with the light in the highest position the knob used to tighten it in place is a little hard to grasp and turn since it becomes slightly recessed in the metal loop pictured.It is a very expensive option, definitely not competitive compared to lesser priced light options. Returned.

As someone who struggles with seasonal affective disorder, this light therapy box has been a lifesaver. Its compact size and sleek design fit seamlessly into my daily routine. The 10,000 lux brightness effectively mimics natural sunlight, boosting my mood and energy levels during dark winter months. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a natural way to combat the winter blues.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very effective, but fragile
Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2022

The first time this was delivered, the lightbulbs broke during transit. Thankfully amazon sent me a replacement really quickly. It's a wonderful light, though the stand is kind of flimsy. My psychiatrist recommended I get this particular one because it allows me to angle the light so that it's shining down on me from above. That makes it a lot more comfortable than having it beam straight into my face and eyes.

Psych also said the best time to use it was in the morning before work, and I can say I feel amazing. I have more energy, more focus, and a great mood. Be very careful with it, and it will serve you well!

I have several different varieties of the northern lights, and I absolutely love them for the therapeutic effect. However, this particular one has post issues as the stand is very wobbly and has a very wide base. I would recommend their other styles over this one.

This product is AWESOME! Well made, easy to assemble and disassemble and then reassemble for travel. I work night shift in a hospital 7p-7a, sometimes for long stretches. Then I flip back to days when I am off. Sometimes I even work 11a-11p. Northern Lights helps me to reset my diurnal rhythms to the timeframe I am working rather than the timeframe the rest of the day-walking world is living...!

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice light.
Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2018
Verified Purchase
I am rating only the light, not the theory behind it. This is a well built light. It came double boxed. Packing was excellent. Solid, strong, bright. Has two stands. One allows it to stand on end at a fixed angle. The other stands it on its side and allows it to rotate up or down. Do be sure to read the dimensions as this is a large light and might be cumbersome for travelling. Unlike some other makers of therapy lights, this one gives you the model numbers for replacement tubes by two different manufacturers, both of which are familiar names. Northern Lights sells replacements too but options are nice, esp. if it means you can get them locally. Does it work according to the theory? You have to try it for yourself. So far not for me.

I bought this to help me get over my jet lag. Travelled to a country with a nearly 12 hour time difference. When I got home, I could not overcome my jet lag. Over two weeks after getting home I was still waking up at 2 AM and not able to fall back to sleep; it was agony. I set this up on my desk and used it for the first 30-60 minutes of my workday. Within two days my sleep schedule was back to normal.

2.0 out of 5 stars Just buy the light, don’t pay extra for the stand.
Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2019
Verified Purchase
Only had it 3 days, light is bright. I researched this purchase pretty thoroughly. At least I thought- Stand is what makes it not worth the extra 50 bucks. My recommendation: Do not pay extra for stand. It is very flimsy and the light makes it top heavy. Just buy the light. Thanks to Amazon they gave me a partial refund on the difference between the stand model and the regular model. I offered to return the stand. Developers- I would love to know if you really trust a 160+ lamp on this flimsy stand. What a gimmick. All it needs was a sturdier attachment and a heavy base so it isn’t top heavy. For this cost you should have provided a sturdy, well designed stand.
