this is what I wanted & my sister is a hairdresser. She said that this is one of the best products for little kids...it lasts forever & parts are readily available...the only drawback is that I didn't realize this had a cord & wish I bought a cordless one instead.

It is 6am in the (soon to be) frozen north and pitch black outside but I am wide awake and full of energy. I love my light box. It is light and easy to use. I understand the bulbs get very hot but you would never know it because they are behind the frosted screen so it is also safe. The product is excellent and my biggest concern before buying it was whether light therapy works or not. I can tell you it works great with me. I have never used the ion-function so I can't tell you about that. Before using it make sure you read the instructions and check out websites that can tell you how light therapy works. If the light is not close enough to you or if you use it the wrong time of day then it will not work.

Even if you spend $10 more, try the G480 - the combs are sturdy and it is a better product than this.

I have used several different SAD lights in the past. I find this one to be one of the most effective, the most thoughtfully designed, the most convenient, and the most affordable (for a true SAD light, not an imitator).

Most effective:
As they say, the proof is in the pudding. This light simply works. I have Seasonal Affective Disorder and always get hit very hard with depression starting in early fall through the winter season here in Wisconsin. I used a friend's SunTouch Plus light last winter and it helped a lot, so this winter I got my own. I don't understand exactly how it works, but it definitely does. I also seem to get a positive effect from the ionizer function.

Most thoughtfully designed and most convenient:
This is a very compact unit. Unlike the big, bulky light boxes, I can easily carry it from one place to another in my home. When using my laptop I can easily position the unit on one side for a period of time and then easily move it to the other side so that both eyes get the same amount of light. The angle is just right for use at my computer desk, my dining room table, and on an end table in my living room. The timer is great, and can be set to 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes and it will turn off by itself. I don't have to be preoccupied looking at a clock or setting a separate timer.

The most affordable:
I have tried less expensive alternatives, but they tend to not be true SAD lights. This one is a true SAD light, not a cheap imitator. It is priced right though -- currently on Amazon it's around $125, which is about half of what other SAD lights and light boxes cost.

I highly recommend this SAD light. I have tried many others and this one is by far my favorite.

I was encouraged by the many positive reviews of this product but it simply did not work for me. I could not trim the hair closely no matter what I did. The product arrived immediately so this is not an issue with the company or its service.

I got this product 3 months ago and it still works great (that was my biggest concern upon purchase).
Its compact, light weight and does an excellent job.
Not to mention - GREAT value for the money.

My husband loves this item to trim his beard, sideburns and the back of his neck. It is an excellent bargain.
