| The arrogance of people still inventing new lamps after the Ikea KRUX lamp is astounding |

| ▲ | johnea 5 hours ago | parent [-] | | It is a great design. I found it when looking for a lamp that doesn't expose the bulb itself, which is exactly what it was designed for. | | |
| ▲ | function_seven 5 hours ago | parent [-] | | How does it fare with modern LED bulbs? I imagine the placement of the reflectors assumes an almost-point source of light like a filament would provide, but most LED bulbs now have a plane of LEDs inside a frosted shell. I guess would it make a noticeable difference to put an LED faux filament bulb in here? Or is it just not as fussy as I'm imagining? | | |

| Had to look it up. The cable coming out of the middle section is unfortunate. I get it's supposed to be vaguely anthropomorphic so that's like a tail or something but... come on. |
