Comments about BOOKLIGHT POP UP ASSORTED COLORS READ:

The reason I got this product it was to be able to reed in bed without disturbing my wife. It doesn’t work. Because the LED is not under a diffusing lens, the light comes harsh in one spot only and the rest of the page is dark making unable to read. This product clips easily to any book and it may last over 100,000 hours but it can not be used to read a single page!

Comments about BOOKLIGHT POP UP ASSORTED COLORS READ:

This light is much too dim. It shines very little light on a book page..even when supplemented by the light of a lamp. I purchased this so I could read in bed without other lighting....not possible. In addition, it periodically turns itself off. I'm afraid I wasted my money on this one.

I purchased 2 of these booklights, one for myself and one as a gift. After using mine, I decided that there wasn't enough light to read & it wasn't useful to me. I returned both of them.

I do a lot of night reading, and this booklight just isn't bright enough for my tired eyes. Also, I'm not a fan of the way it hangs on the book.

This light fits easily over pages in a book and has a pivot to adjust the light in any direction. I liked the attractive design and aluminum build which makes for a sturdy and reliable product. It is an attractive gift to give other readers in your life who have trouble adjusting to room light to read their favorite books. Well done Brookstone!

Comments about BOOKLIGHT POP UP ASSORTED COLORS READ:

It easily fits in your pocket, briefcase or laptop bag—so slim and light you can leave it in all the time, so you always have it when you need it. Ideal for getting extra reading light on the train, reading in bed without disturbing your spouse, and when flying. Kids love it too, for reading under the covers or in the back of the car at night during a long road trip—way cooler than a flashlight!
