I've had this book light for several years and it still works just as good as when I first got it, despite being dropped several times, so it's very durable. I love the pink color and have gotten many compliments on it. I love the large clip to clip it onto books and that the clip is lined with a soft material so as not to damage the book's pages or leave indentations. When not in use, I clip it on my lampshade next to my bed so I don't clutter up my bedside table with it and it has never left any marks on the white shade. The flex neck is excellent and allows you to easily maneuver the light to virtually any angle that you need and because it has the wire inside the neck, it will stay put in any position unless you physically move it.
