When you’re buying an adjustable gooseneck floor lamp, look for one that provides a range of height around 58 to 64 inches. In the average room, for the average person, this provides the maximum lighting effect. Ideally, you’d want the bottom of the lampshade on your floor lamp to be around eye level for a person in a seated position. Take some time to measure your specific seating arrangements to see if they offer any different height data before you make your purchase.
Your adjustable gooseneck floor lamp is perfect for reading, writing, or other activities that require targeted, dim light. We’d place a floor lamp right next to the places that you complete these actions. Your gooseneck floor lamp would likely look good and work well by a couch, tabletop, or desk. These are also locations that you’re unlikely to knock your lamp over by, adding safety and security to your home.
