1. Mi LED Desk Lamp EU MJTD01YL (from 2,2 thousand rubles)

A laconic high-tech device that can fit into any interior, with the exception of the overly classic. It has the highest illumination rates, which exceeds 1000 lux – you can read more about this characteristic below in our device selection guide. All thanks to the built-in LED-lamp. The manufacturer has installed a mechanism that prevents flickering: visually, few people can notice these interruptions, however, it has been proven that they affect human vision. Four lighting modes are built into the lamp: they consist in changing the color temperature. One eliminates the harmful blue lighting of devices, the other reduces eye fatigue, the third increases attentiveness, and the last one simply gives a soft diffused light. The intensity of illumination is regulated by a rotary switch at the bottom. The service life of the device is more than 25 thousand hours. However, after that it will have to be disposed of, since it is unlikely that you will find it on sale and will be able to replace burned-out LEDs on your own.

2. In Home ССО-02Ч (from 700 rubles)

A mid-range table lamp from a major manufacturer of lighting fixtures for home use. Shown only in black. We immediately pay attention to the minus of the glossy coating: it will collect dust, so if you are not a fan of wet cleaning, then think about purchasing another model. For everyone else, we tell you what is good about this sample. Firstly, it is high and powerful – LEDs “fry” up to 10 W, and this is a very high figure. Fortunately, the power is regulated by a touch dimmer, which is built into the table lamp stand. They buy it not only for written work at the table, but also various masters, for example, seamstresses. The manufacturer indicates the degree of moisture protection on the packaging according to the IP20 standard. This is a low figure, which essentially means only impermeability to drops and splashes. The device has a long cord of one and a half meters.

3. ERA N-121-E27-40W-BK (from 800 rubles)

In 2022, lighting devices of this form factor look outlandish, and not many manufacturers dare to produce such devices. Although there is a considerable circle of fans for such table lamps. First of all, these are people who work a lot with various kinds of drawings. Due to its mechanism and height, the device is perfectly adjustable. By the way, this bending part is called a pantograph. The lamp clings to the table with a clamp. It is important to understand here that not every table will be convenient for this mechanism – you need a well-protruding edge. Otherwise, any awkward movement will lead to a fall. A standard E27 base is hidden inside the ceiling lamp, lamps for which are sold in every household. And what is important, here you are free to choose any, because the connector is universal: incandescent, halogen, LED. However, keep in mind that the ceiling is not deep here, which means that massive lamps will bulge and hit in the eyes.

4. ArtStyle TL-402B (from 3,2 thousand rubles)

The next member of our ranking of the best table lamps of 2022 is more expensive than the competition. Her design is for an amateur, it seems to be a little lacking in conciseness, which is now in trend. Although there is a device completely in white, but due to its dimensions it looks like a lamp for a nail salon. Although the manufacturer chose various masters of the beauty industry as one of the target audiences. Now we will tell you what they actually offer to lay out a considerable amount for. First, lighting options. It offers cool, warm, neutral light, as well as three dimming positions. The maximum power up to 10 W is LEDs here, so this is a good indicator. Secondly, the ability to install the device both on the clamp and on the platform. Everything is already included. Claimed service life up to 50 thousand hours. Given the two-year warranty, which totals 17,5 thousand hours, it is unlikely to be able to estimate the resource.

5. Philips Eyecare Smart Lamp 2 (from 2,6 thousand rubles)

We cannot recommend this table lamp with 100% certainty as the best for school work because of its height. The device is compact and flexible. Thanks to this, it will look great on the bedside table. Please note that two LED blocks are built into the case here: one in the leg and one in the ceiling. According to the manufacturer, this reduces the load during prolonged operation. They themselves promote it as a device for those who are engaged in drawing and drawing. Allegedly, soft diffused light contributes to this. The technical filling of the device can itself build the brightness depending on the illumination of the room. However, no one bothers to independently increase or decrease power. To do this, touch buttons are integrated into the base. And this table lamp can be included in the “smart home” system and controlled via a smartphone.

6. Camelion Light Solution KD-313 C02 (from 800 rubles)

This device, again, due to its too compact dimensions, cannot be recommended as the main source of light when working at the table, especially when it comes to children. He’s too low. However, we still talk about devices in the ranking of the best lamps of 2022. It captivates with its classic design, which will organically fit into many interiors. It can be a table lamp that will give a cozy warm spot. Of course, provided that you install a lamp of the appropriate color temperature in it. The base is standard E27. True, if you put a 60 W incandescent lamp, as stated in the product documents, then the ceiling will seriously heat up. Therefore, it is better to give preference to energy-saving analogues. In reviews, buyers praise the product for a stable stand – it is not too massive, but weighty. The device has a long wire – 1,7 meters. This is a medal with two sides: it seems convenient, but the excess will have to be hidden somewhere.

7. Citilux Newton CL803021 (from 3 thousand rubles)

This ultimate table lamp was clearly designed for all knowledge workers who can’t imagine life without a smartphone. After all, its main feature is in the USB block, into which you can connect the cable for charging. Note that in more expensive models from this manufacturer, a wireless charging system is completely integrated into the platform. At the base there are touch buttons that are responsible for adjusting the brightness and color temperature of the lighting. Of the minuses – the settings are not remembered. That is, it is worth cutting down the device, as it immediately forgets the specified characteristics. Moreover, the problem is solved by installing an inexpensive microcircuit during production at the factory, but for some reason the company saved money. Note that the power here, unlike competitors in the same price segment, is slightly lower – 7 watts. However, if this is not the only source of light in the room, then it will be enough for comfortable work at the table. The design of the lamp is adjustable in several planes. The height can be adjusted from 40 to 80 cm – a wide range. Please note that if you are purchasing one for a junior high school student, then sit at the table with him and build the required angle and height.

8. Uniel TLD-542 Black (from 1,4 thousand rubles)

Lighting fixture with a claim to business style. Part of the base is covered with artificial leather. The leg has a built-in display that shows the date, time, temperature. Moreover, the dial can be repaid. However, no matter how paradoxical it may sound, but judging by the reviews, the clock starts to rush in a few weeks. There are also power and brightness buttons. There is also an alarm clock. The table lamp looks really impressive. Such a place on a strict desktop. It will be great to combine with massive dark wood furniture. However, the disadvantages of the device include its modest height. This is not suitable for schoolchildren and students. And for everyone else who works a lot at the table, we advise this with caution. Although the diode for such a baby is powerful here, however, in size it clearly hints that this is more of an interior solution than a full-fledged device for activity.

9. Eglo Bayman 91971 (from 950 rubles)

The best table lamp in modern style, which in 2022 can fit into any interior. However, if the whole room is designed in a similar style of the 20s of the last century, then it will become a real decoration. This lighting fixture is not for table use as it is not adjustable. This is an atmospheric lamp that can be placed near an armchair, sofa and read. It is interesting that it can also be hung – the transparent cord sits firmly enough in the nest, which means that by buying several of these lamps, you can arrange a rhythmic composition in the room from several shades. The glass is frosted. It “steals” part of the lamp power, so it is better to take a powerful LED lamp inside. It has no bottom – it stands on glass. This feature is needed so that the device can be fixed or suspended in the air.

10. Globo Lighting GERI 21677 (from 1,5 thousand rubles)

In conclusion of our ranking of the best table lamps of 2022, we will tell you about another device that clearly has a decorative purpose. Let’s start with the technical part. Here is the E14 base – it is smaller, although it is still often found on sale. This incandescent lamp holds only up to 40 watts. This is enough as bedside lighting that sets you up for sleep. However, for those who want more powerful, you can buy an LED lamp, which requires less power, but shines brighter. As for external data, they are quite original. An excellent choice for those who somehow want to decorate the room, but lack knowledge in interior design. Such a table lamp will be not catchy, but still a noticeable accent in the room. The base is ceramic. Due to this, the creators got a textured relief. But keep in mind that such a platform is quite fragile and is unlikely to withstand a fall or careless transportation.

How to choose a table lamp

We have presented the ranking of the best table lamps of 2022, and now we are passing the floor to the experts who will help you decide on the choice of lighting fixture. Helped us to prepare the materials sanitary doctor, quality director of the Sanitary Service company Nikolai Dubinin и interior designers Ekaterina Ushakova, Alina Rogovskaya.

Before the purchase

To correctly choose a table lamp, you need to decide where and for what purpose it is used. The most demanded appointment is lighting of a working zone of a desk in children’s and offices. In this case, you should look at the lamps on the clamp or clothespin, which can be attached to the edge of the table without taking up a useful surface. Such models usually have a flexible or telescopic leg, which allows you to adjust the direction of the light.

If the lamp is used in a bedroom or living room for interior decoration and soft atmospheric lighting, then it is worth giving preference to more traditional designs of lamps with a base. The main function of these devices is decorative, there are many variations of such lamps of various sizes, colors, materials.

What is the required power and temperature

If it is an incandescent lamp, then 40-60W power is enough. For an LED lamp, this can be 5-15W, since they are several times more powerful and more economical than conventional ones. Also, they don’t get hot. In this case, it is necessary to take into account not only the power of the lamp, but also the level of illumination. This indicator is also indicated on the packaging. For a workplace, this is 300-500 Lx. When buying, turn on the device with exactly the light bulb that will be used in the future.

The glow temperature for a desk is in the range of 3500-4000 K, which gives a neutral white light – just right for work. Decorative lamps that are turned on in the evening should have a warmer light to create a cozy environment. Here it would be appropriate to use light bulbs in the values ​​of 2800-3200 K.

Choosing a lamp

Experts do not recommend halogen. They will heat the ceiling and the surface of the table, giving an unpleasant light for the eyes. You can choose an energy-saving lamp, as an incandescent lamp gives off light that is not comfortable for the eyes. Ideally, use a diode with daylight neutral or warm light.

The light bulb should be positioned so as not to blind the person sitting at the table. It is more convenient to check this by sitting at the table with the device. Do not look at the lamp on the trading shelf – the result will not be obvious.

Pay attention to the ceiling

The plafond should scatter light evenly, and not highlight one narrow spot. Please note that the dark inner part of the ceiling will absorb light, which means that the light bulb must be chosen brighter. A light surface, on the contrary, will reflect light.

Be careful with a metal shade – it can heat up during operation of the device, so it is better to give the choice to fabric lampshades or high-quality plastic shades. Glass, especially frosted glass, is also an excellent material for a lamp. However, due to the severity and fragility of lamps with such a ceiling, it is better to use them in bedrooms and offices where there are no children and animals. If you are buying a child a lamp for classes, then fabric or round shades will not work, because. they illuminate not the table, but the space around them.

Instrument material

It can be anything: from plastic to metal and even concrete. Choose the general style of the interior. Avoid bumps, relief and surface roughness if you do not want to dust frequently.

The material of the legs also matches the interior. For modern and minimalist, polymeric materials are well suited. Wood – for eco-style or Provence, metals of noble colors will easily fit into a classic environment. Choose non-staining – matte – surfaces if you are not ready to spend too much time cleaning. And if you want to be original, you can go to a ceramic workshop and mold the base of the lamp.

Table lamp designs

With a bendable base, the so-called transformers: with a flexible tripod or with an articulated joint. They are convenient because they can be placed anywhere on the table. And even on a shelf or chest of drawers near, tilting the ceiling as you like. There are table lamps with a fixed base. For such lamps, it is important that the ceiling itself rotates.

Although both of the described designs perfectly fulfill the functions assigned to them, for preschoolers, as well as children of primary school age, it is still recommended to buy a lamp with a flexible tripod. Adjusting it to your child will be much easier.

Check the convenience of switching on: ideally, with a button or by pressing on the lamp itself. If, nevertheless, the button is on the wire, then it should be as close as possible to the base of the lamp.

The most modern devices

Integrate with “smart home” and various voice assistants. These can be controlled from the phone, from a smart speaker that can be placed in another room. Or program the lamp to turn on with reference to the time of day, to your working time. Another thing is how justified the cost of an expensive device is, if it is not so difficult to light a light bulb with one movement of your finger.
