Does the Adesso Glenn include bulbs?

No. It takes two E26 bulbs, up to 150 W total for the top and a standard bulb for the reading light. Use dimmable LEDs to get the full dimmer range.

Can I use LED bulbs in it?

Yes. The sockets are E26 and accept A19 or A21 LED and incandescent bulbs. Choose dimmable LEDs, since non-dimmable ones may buzz or flicker on the rotary dimmer.

How tall is it, and can I adjust it?

It is 71 inches tall with a fixed height and fixed arm. There is no adjustment, so plan its spot around the ceiling height.

Does the dimmer control both lights?

The rotary switch dims the lamp. Check the switch behavior for the reading light on the unit, since the two lights are switched together on this model.

Is it good for reading?

The lower light helps, but the arm does not adjust, so it works best as background light with a separate task lamp for close reading.

How does the Adesso Glenn compare with other torchieres?

It stands out with two lights and a rotary dimmer, which many single-bulb torchieres lack. Rivals with adjustable arms or glass shades offer more flexibility or a nicer finish, but fewer give both uplight and a reading bulb.
