I've had a Stella for about 5 years now. i also have an Ott lamp. You can't beat Stella for it's quality of light. I can sew literally for hours without ANY eye strain. And because the power and type of light is adjustable I can use it in any situation. I purchased the edge as I want to use it on my cutting table. I know it's expensive but I believe you get what you pay for. For me, this is a good deal.
LongArmPattiI received my Stella lamp yesterday and used it last night. What a difference it makes! Wonderful light quality!! The price was great too. I saw it at a quilt store for $100 more. Thank you, Massdrop for a great deal!
I bought this the last time around and it is a game changer. I'm buying another this time around for another workstation because it's that amazing. If you have middle-aged eyesight, this is worth every cent. I took a chance the first time - I needed a good light and I didn't know how mediocre my existing sewing light was, but when this came and I plugged it in, the other lamp went straight to Goodwill.
If I didn't think it was, I wouldn't have bought a second on in this drop. To my 30 year old eyes, it would be an extravagance. To my 50 year old eyes, it's a simple necessity. I easily spend $100 on fabric every month (or at least that's the amount I confess to when my husband asks). Getting my stitching and seams correct matters a lot when I have so much invested in fabric (not to mention my machine, thread, batting, etc.). The quality of my work is only as good as my stitching and my work much better when I can see what I'm doing.

t-k-oOh, I have no doubt that good light is a necessity, regardless of age. What worries me is the quality of the build as there is no mention on the manufacturer of LEDs. Good LEDs come at high cost but you get assurance from manufacturer about behavior (flickering, colors, etc.).
ChicktarI bought one of each a couple of years ago and to date I haven't been disappointed with the quality or build. Having said that, there are certainly other cheaper options out there worth considering.
Hi All,
I want to make sure it's clear that for this drop, and all future drops, we will be shipping new stock to our members. This has been guaranteed for us and will aleviate the issue that some of you have experienced.
Got mine today! Yeah! Got it all set up, removed the plastic covering the battery, clicked "on".... nothing. Clicked a few more times and the lamp came on. I was so happy, sewed for about 15 minutes. Clicked the on/off button again... nothing. I couldn't get the lamp to turn off. So I've packed it up and put it back in the box. I'd like to return the lamp for one that is not defective. The lamp is beautiful, the remote is another matter.
MissMoriHi @MissMori,
Please reach out to Customer Support through the transactions page. This can be found in the top right corner of the page under your profile picture.
The new battery did not make a difference. It still flashes once when plugged in and then nothing else. I need to either get a resolution on this asap or get a refund. I am very disappointed. Still have not heard from customer support.
wendyj59I just found the email from support. There is no manufacturer's warranty on this item so Massdrop is going to issue a refund as soon as I return the item. :-(
My wife has a a Stella and utilizes it for doing her nails. She swears by it. Anyhow, she purchased me a light for reading and it is a HUGE difference maker. My eyes do not strain and I can see the text clearer. My Stella Two is quite a bit brighter than my wife's Stella. I also have a Stella EDGE that I use on my work bench in the garage.
