SAD Light - LED Energy Efficiency Half Electric Cost + Lasts Three Times As Long - Medically Certified 10,000 + Timer + 3 intensities + 12 Month Guarantee (Utopia)

It is early morning and I am sitting here next to my new Utopia Utramini SAD light and can feel its warming glow on my face... I love the sad light and the fact that it is portable and has buttons for the length of time and the strength of the light; it thus offers 9 different settings with 6 buttons and an on/off button. It is perfect for the desk at home or at work as it is portable with a case and easily transportable... I think we all need more sunlight living at higher latitudes here in the UK and I have come to this light through reading about circadian rhythms and how they are regulated by light. My son is a health professional and he too has a sad light and has encouraged me to get one and the utopia one here was my choice after days of trawling the Internet both on uk/usa Amazon and Google. Although price was important, I would certainly have paid more if I thought a higher priced product was what I needed, but luckily this Utopia lamp is very sensibly priced. And the service from Redstone/ Cyber Products is as good as it gets... I only write reviews occasionally if a product is really outstanding and this one is...

This is a fab little lightweight device that im glad i bought. I was dithering wondering about the quality as it was quite an expensive purchase for me in my situation but I'm really pleased with it. It IS very bright, shockingly so first thing n the morning but keep it out of direct eye line and its fine once the eyes adjust. At first I saw little dots imprinted on my eyelids but now know better to look away at switch on but it would be useless as a dim light for lifting the spirits, bright is good, just don't look direct.It has 3 timer settings so it will do the counting for you while you just enjoy your reading or coffee.Its light and so easy to carry though the bag cover that comes with it is only a cloth cover. Great for storage but for transporting in my bag i will need to either source and buy a padded protective one that also fits the plug and wire in, which the one provided doesn't..the wire hangs out from the point it enters the device...or design and make one myself..but the device itself is excellent. Thank you.

Made a difference to SAD. Easy to pop wherever I need it. The travel bag is a nice addition. But the stand is a little awkward. It is basically a pull out bit of plastic like a photo frame support. The light often slips and falls flat and is a little tricky to get at the right angle.But for the price it’s pretty good overall.Recommended

As a lighting Engineer, I am only too aware of the ill effects that poor lighting, particularly shop and office lighting, have on people. So many offices have the incorrect colour lamps in place, causing sickness and illness amoung it's employess, (sick building syndrome)!I have been using a daylight lamp for some time with good effects, but the lamps were unreliable and not that effective because the light output was poor and most of the energy is wasted in heat.I purchased this product because it looked to fit the bill! Well I am pleasantly surprised, a well thought out design, well engineered to use less electricity and the output of the LED's is impressive. The timing and output functions are a good feature, the built in stand is a nice touch and generally it is a high quality product. I've seen less quality products sell for twice as much!Clear instructions and no guesswork.Next step, perhaps a built in clock and timer device to auto switch on in the morning.Good jobTrev

Very lightweight and portable, but very effective.Very bright light, yet dimmable.Switches on and off manually with ease, but can also be operated by setting a timer.Inexpensive compared to many other SAD lights.

This lamp was a great light source at a great price and ideal for purpose. Unfortunately it stopped working after 2 months. It was only being used for 30 minutes 4-5 times a week. Have asked for a refund and think I will need to buy something more reliable and probably more expensive for next year. A real pity.

Very lightweight, and easy to put anywhere you want it. I was a little disappointed after not getting much results from this, after seeing all the glowing reviews. Maybe light therapy just isn't for me, but the product itself is good quality.

The item arrived over the weekend so it was a relatively quick delivery (20oct, thurs order and arrived on 24oct, mon). The lamp has 3 settings and has specific instruction for how long each should be used with each setting. It comes with a 1 year guarantee. The light is concentrated from the front (almost like a spotlight) and the highest setting is quite bright, which sounds legit for sad sufferers. Can't really tell if a normal full spectrum light bulb would have been stronger. But so far so good, now waiting for the winter to see if really works at lifting moods when the daylight is limited.
