Dyson Lightcycle Morph Floor Lamp

Dyson Lightcycle Morph lamp’s standout features

It’s easy to set up. It took me around 20 minutes to fully put together the lamp and connect to the smartphone app.
It is relatively lightweight. The Lightcycle Morph floor lamp weighs 13.4 pounds and the desk lamp weighs 7.7 pounds. I can easily transport my floor lamp from my bedroom to my living room and back again without straining. After experiencing the Lightcycle Morph's various capabilities in my bedroom, I quickly realized the dull Ikea lamp in my living room paled in comparison. And rather than investing in a second Dyson, I make do by moving the floor lamp into whatever space I'm working from.
It is readily available. Both the floor and desk Dyson Lightcycle Morph lamps are sold at Nordstrom, Best Buy, Amazon, Abt Electronics and, of course, from Dyson directly.
It charges my tech. At the bottom of the lamp stem is a USB-C charger, where I can plug in my iPad or Beats by Dre headphones.
It has seven preset settings, including Study, Relax, Precision, Boost, Wake-up, Sleep and Away. I can skip buying a sunrise alarm clock because I can create a similar artificial rising sun effect in my bedroom with Wake-up mode. Away mode is particularly helpful when traveling, of course: It triggers the lamp to turn on and off at preset times to create the illusion that someone is home, sort of like in “Home Alone,” but with zero hijinks.
It is also made in three colorways: Gold/Black, White/Silver and Black (my personal favorite).
