BUYING GUIDE & FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose a table lamp for a sofa side table?
Measure the usable tabletop and assess the shade from your usual seated position. Leave space for everyday objects and a safe cable route. There is no universal lamp-to-table height ratio for every sofa and fitting.
Can every living-room table lamp be used as a reading lamp?
No. Reading needs useful light on the page, comfortable glare control and accessible switching. Check model-specific output and direction rather than assuming a decorative shade provides sufficient task light.
Are bulbs included, and where can I compare designs?
Bulbs are included. The holder, wattage limit, included bulb specification and dimming compatibility still depend on the selected product. Browse Table Lamps or compare a different floor-standing form in Floor Lamps.
