Good Earth Lighting GL6543-BK-GLI Lincoln Park Tochiere with Opal Glass Diffuser, Black

Customer Buzz
The product came on time with no damage. Assembling is easy, but you do need some basic "spatial capability". If you never played with Lego when you were a kid, ask someone else to assemble for you.

The lamp works fine so far. I had it for couple months. I am sure if you turn the switch on off with rough force it could break. It is not a $300 lamp made for the US army, so just be gentle with it.

I really saved a lot of money with this unit. It does the job for me and I am happy with it.

Customer Buzz
While the tochiere was quite easy to assemble, the lamp itself would not turn on. Sadly, I had to return the product. Its simplicity is quite attractive, however.

Customer Buzz
If you are at all sensitive to bright fluorescent ligt, do not purchase this lamp. On the dimmest setting possible, it is very bright. For me, it is unusable. If you want to light 5,000 sq. ft., this is the lamp to get. ott, it looks good assembled.

Customer Buzz
While this is a wonderful lamp, I do have to be honest about the foolishness of it coming with a fluorescent bulb. After I put it together, I found out that the bulb packed with the lamp was cracked from being crammed into the styrofoam packing with the rest of the lamp. It really was not a good idea, since the bulb cracked when I carefully tried to open the packaging around the bulb. I didn't even get that far in the process before I heard that awful cracking sound.

This is a very crucial point to make because of the mercury powder inside the bulb. I had to carefully put the bulb--still in its packaging--in a plastic bag and put it in my storage area because I did not want my kid inhaling this very toxic material. (I'll have to take it to the solid waste management service in my town to safely dispose of this hazardous waste tomorrow morning.)

Whatever you do, err on the side of caution and go to a local hardware store to get the replacement bulb rather than order it online. It's much safer that way, especially with the whole interstate shipping process. Were it not for this one important issue, I'd give this lamp a five-star rating. It is really a nice bit of hardware, especially when it's put together according to the instructions. It's good to have actual written assembly instructions instead of some cheap drawings with arrows to tell you what to do. Everything works just the way it's supposed to (that is, once I went to a local home improvement store and bought a couple of bulbs, just in case).

Apart from the caveats I mentioned, this is a wonderful product and would recommend it to my friends...with the proper cautions, of course.

Customer Buzz
Lamp appears to be nearly perfect for my application, but my Amazon purchase arrived with a minor but fatal manufacturing flaw: Although the assembly directions for the pole sections stress caution against cross-threading, one of the sockets itself was already cross-threaded so that the assembled pole was not straight. Return to Amazon was simple and quick, but the replacement lamp suffered from the same flaw. The second return was equally expeditious, but Amazon was unwilling to send a third. The base is very heavy, and postage must be considerable.
At this writing, Amazon only makes this item available from a 3rd party at more than twice the cost after shipping.

Customer Buzz
...cuz you might scratch the frosted coating on the glass.

Besides that, what is there to say? this is a basic light, very good for cheaply adding nice illumination to any room.

Customer Buzz
Product works well, arrived on time, and is bright enough for reading and lighting the room. My wife wanted me to replace an older quartz tourchiere that was very hot. She was concerned about overheating and the possibility of fire. The flourescent lamp runs very cool, and puts out nearly an equivalent amount of light. Not to mention uses less electricity.

Canon FAXPHONE L80 Laser Fax/Printer

Product Description

For your small business or personal desktop, Canon FAXPHONE L80 gives you the performance of a laser facsimile and a printer, with the added convenience of a telephone handset. With state-of-the-art fax capabilities and a six page-per-minute laser printer, this space saving business machine functions in the place of two devices. Now is the time to upgrade from a thermal or ink jet fax machine to the performance of quality laser output. 33.6 Kbps modem for approximately 3 seconds per page transmission time Transmission/Reception Memory up to 350 pages 15 Speed Dials, 100 Coded Speed Dials, Directory Search 114 Destinations for broadcasting Fax Resolution Super Fine - 203 x 391 dpi; Fine - 203 x 196 dpi; Standard - 203 x 98 dpi; UHQ Enhanced Imaging Quality 30 sheets letter (20 lb. paper) ADF Telephone Handset Included USB OS Compatibility - Windows 98/Me/2000/XP Dimensions (W x D x H) - 17.5 W x 22.9 H x 15.9 D Canon Warranty - 1-year limited warranty with Exchange Program (subject to certain conditions and restrictions, see warranty card for details)

Customer Buzz
I prefer Canon products as I also own their D761 copier and 3 of their cameras. (I did recently purchase the Brother wireless color laser MFC 9840 since it was at a steal of a price). Prior to this fax machine I had one of their inkjet multifunction machines that still works but I needed laser printed documents for clarity and longevity. I paid $200 for this machine about 5 yrs. ago (at the time the lowest price). I have only 2 issues w/ this machine. One the toner says to replace cartridge before it completely empties. I keep shaking it and putting it back in until I get tired of doing this. I think just about all brands are set up this way since it is a huge money maker. Depending on the paper, but more important the humidity, multiple pages will fax through at a time and/or receiving faxes will have several empty sheets pulled through at the same time. If I'm really busy of course this can be very annoying particularly if I'm faxing or receiving a large document. Still I think this is a very good fax machine and it is still holding up quite well. If it suddenly dies today you better believe I would buy it again at this incredible price.

Customer Buzz
I had an older Canon laser combo (fax/print/scan) unit. When a new version of Windows came out, there was no new driver and it would not work on an updated computer. If you can get your money's worth out of it before you update to Windows 7 then go ahead. Plan on junking it after that.

Customer Buzz
This is not compatible with 64 bit computers, and Canon, the Manufacturer does not have an updated version of the installation software present on their website. I want to return the product for the above reason.

Customer Buzz
This fax machine would make a great prop for a play or a film, because it looks just like a fax machine. It would also serve well as a large paper weight. This machine is not, however, suited for any environment in which it will be used to send or receive faxes.

When printing faxes, it frequently pulls multiple pages through at once, and promptly stops printing with a "CHECK PAGE SIZE" error that must be manually cleared with the RESET button. This button, of course, cannot be used for RESET while transmitting or receiving, as it is also the STOP button.

Once reset the machine re-prints the page with the "error," often with a few more blank pages and further PAGE SIZE errors. It is not uncommon to end up with four or five copies of the page on which the machine decided to choke. The blank sheets it prints are usually curled from the rollers in the machine, and unsuitable to be put back in the hopper lest they cause it to jam even worse.

The machine also tends to pull multiple pages through the scanner portion when used for fax transmission or the limited copy function. This does not give any kind of error, and the machine will happily transmit the abridged fax without telling you unless you hit the aforementioned STOP button. This is especially annoying when sending longer faxes, and requires the machine to be closely babysat.

When you do hit the STOP button to cancel some action, perhaps after entering the wrong number, or seeing three sheets of your transmission get pulled through the scanner at once, the machine rings a loud alarm and, if you have the transmission receipt option on, prints a failure receipt.

When the machine has run out of paper, or has decided that the paper is too long (by mistaking all the extra sheets it pulled through for a longer single sheet) it gives absolutely no alarm whatsoever, and stores all incoming faxes to memory until RESET is hit.

Let me restate that, so that the absurdity of the design is a little bit more clear: when a user tells the machine to stop, it sounds an alarm to let the user know that it has stopped. When the machine decides to stop entirely on its own, it does so silently.

This means that the machine will often sit quietly for hours, storing incoming faxes in memory until someone thoughtfully checks the tiny LCD screen for any error messages and finally hits RESET.

If you just need a fax machine that looks the part, this one is for you. Anyone who expects a usable office appliance would do better off elsewhere.

Customer Buzz
I bought this fax machine mistakenly thinking that a FAX MACHINE would be better at FAXES than an all in one printer/scanner/fax/copier.

I cannot fax more than one page at a time without standing at the machine and manually feedind the pages through, because when left alone, it constantly sucks in two or four pages at a time.

If you build a fax machine - Shouldn't it be able to fax more than one page? Too much to ask?

Customer Buzz
i liked the product alot except the fact you can't connect a phone to this product. Even though it has a throughput jack it is intended only to be connected to an answering machine, so don't buy this product if you intend to hook it up to another device like say a coordless phone. the device doesn't have an autosensing feature where if you pick up the phone it'll turn the fax off or anything like that.

in the end i had to return a pretty cool machine because i had to use it with a coordless phone. i wish canon would have a feature to disable/enable this type of useage.

i talked to a tech rep who said this is intended to be used as a handset unit since it has a phone handset with it.

Customer Buzz
This L80 has been used in my insurance office for over a year and performs well. The cartridge died recently and I ordered a replacement from a vendor who neglected to advise me it was not in stock. While awaiting a delivery that wouldn't arrive, I saw that Amazon offered this model for under $90 and free 2 day prime shipping. I ordered my second L80, for home use. It did arrive in 2 days, with its own new ink/toner cartridge which I 'borrowed' for the office machine. This machine is easy to use. The toner and drum is one cartridge and is easily replaced. Copies and faxes are bright and clear. I read some negative reviews here and feel lucky my L80 is such a competent work horse. It's a big machine, but dependable.

Customer Buzz
I own a small business and give mine a fairly heavy workout. The machine started and has always pulled multiple pages (I have tried diff paper types) when faxing. We have always needed to stay there and feed one page at a time, talk about a time killer for 20 page documents! After a year, it has started pulling multiple sheets from the feeder when printing. I guess I should get off a couple of dollars for a new one. I love Canon and this is the first bad product I have received from them but it is bad, real bad. I may stay with Canon but certainly not this product.

Customer Buzz
I have 2 of these fax machines in my businesses. They are used as our main printer as well as a fax machine. I am very pleased with them. I have saved SO much money by switching to these laser-based fax machines compared with ink-jet faxes.

The print quality is excellent and the L80 is easy to assemble, configure, and use.

Customer Buzz
I can't believe I have to use this P.O.S. every day at work. A coworker bought this a couple months ago and it feels like I'm using a first generation fax machine. First off, you have to babysit the thing and feed one page in at a time. It sucks several pages at once, every time like clockwork. I can't believe these piece of junk is new! Secondly, if you like picking up all your incoming faxes off the floor, this model's for you. Nothing, I repeat, nothing stays in the flimsy wire paper tray. What a lousy design all around. I wouldn't take this machine for free. Please don't buy it!
