Review on πŸ’‘ Enhanced Power Sewing Machine Light: LED Flexible Gooseneck Work Lamp with Magnetic Mount Base for Workbench, Lathe, & Drill Press by Linda Diaz

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Inconvenient to use when not sticking to your sewing machine

The light itself is great. It works well for lighting up my sewing area, but I have an old sewing machine that it won't stick to, so I've made awkward use of the light by placing it over metal applique scissors on my desk. One of the things it's attached to will also be liable. The magnet itself works but since it doesn't stick to my car I'm having trouble using it. The design is such that this light cannot sit on a table or similar surface without falling off. So if it doesn't stick to your sewing machine, good luck! It's a good light and I think it's worth the money, but it only works well if your sewing machine or surface has enough metal in the right place to glue it. If it doesn't then you have to upgrade the thing to work and the base is very awkward with the wire routing and light so it's unbalanced and could fall off. We tried the command strips on top of the sewing machine but they fell off. We also tried command strips with a small metal disc, but that didn't work either as the weight of the light caused it to become unbalanced and the light to fall off. I might try the command strips again later and put a big puck on them. But if that doesn't work, then I'm stuck until I find a metal box or something.

Pros
  • Can be placed in the best position for lighting with its magnetic base, the flexible 7 inch gooseneck allows you to adjust the light exactly where you need it without to sag or sag;
Cons
  • Not sure
