Frequently Asked Questions
What's the ideal height for a table lamp?
The bottom of the lampshade should generally sit at or slightly below eye level when you're seated nearby. For reading, this typically means the lamp should be 24-27 inches tall when placed on an end table beside a sofa or chair.
How do I choose the right shade size?
A good rule of thumb is that the shade width should be approximately 2/3 the height of the lamp base, and no wider than the table it sits on. The shade should also cover the bulb and hardware when viewed at eye level.
Can I use any type of bulb in my table lamp?
Check the lamp's maximum wattage rating and socket type before purchasing bulbs. Most modern table lamps accommodate standard bulb bases, but always verify compatibility. LED bulbs are typically recommended for energy efficiency and heat reduction.
How much should I expect to spend on a quality table lamp?
Table lamps range widely in price based on materials, brand, and features. Basic functional models start around budget-friendly prices, while designer or high-end materials can cost significantly more. Consider your specific needs and how frequently you'll use the lamp when setting your budget.
