Why Trust Us

We built Home Office Lamps to remove guesswork from lighting. Our reviews start with measurements at the desk surface and end with clear, replicable recommendations matched to real tasks and spaces.

Deep, Cross‑Disciplinary Expertise

Our team blends lighting measurement, electrical engineering, ergonomics, and practical desk setup experience. That means we evaluate not just brightness, but uniformity, flicker behavior across dim levels, color quality (including R9), stability of arms and joints, and how the lamp actually fits alongside monitors and accessories.

Transparent Methods and Evidence

Every pick is backed by data you can inspect: beam maps, placement diagrams, and notes on clamp clearance, reach, and glare avoidance. We explain why a lamp works for coding versus sketching, what lux levels you can expect at common working distances, and how to position the head to avoid reflections.

Independence and Plain Talk

We don’t sell lamps. We may earn a commission if you purchase through our links, but our scoring is published and our process is open. No hype—just what helps you read faster, make fewer mistakes, and work longer in comfort. If we miss something, tell us; we correct and update with clear time‑stamps.
