Manufacturer's Description

This unique Autofade bedside light combines a conventional touch sensitive on/off lamp with an ingenious automatic fade function. The light has an instant on/off dimmer or brightener function that reacts to touch, and then also has a programmed fade function, which when activated will gradually dim the lamp to off over a 15 minute period. This means you can leave the light on in baby's room and it will gradually become dimmer over 15 minutes until it's completely off. The gentle dimming effect of the Autofade Bedside Lamp will build your baby's confidence and help them overcome their fear of the dark.

Customer Reviews

One of the must haves.
I bought this nightlight to use with my second child 6 years ago and loved it so much I've just replaced the bulb in order to use it with my third child due in a few weeks. So simple to use: touch sensitive dimmer and on/off switch (because let's face it when you're tired from looking after a newborn you don't need anything gadgety and over complex!)Auto fade function which gradually (and barely noticeably!) fades to off over 15 mins - something I used with my baby as she got older to help her fall asleep on her own. This product fills a need and it is definitely one of those 'must haves' for every nursery. N.B.Although the bulbs do last a while, it comes with only one replacement bulb. After some searching I found that Maplin's sell one that fits; a 25w E14 tube bulb by Orbitec.

a good purchase
We have used this light every night since our daughter was born eight months ago. It has been great because it can be dimmed very low but just light enough to see into the room to check on her. It is also useful if she does occasionally need feeding or changing as I dont need to brighten the room any further to do this, so getting her back to sleep is a lot easier. It has been left on sometimes for over 15 hours and it is still cool to touch. We even took it on holiday with us as she seems to drift off to sleep so well with it! There is a function to automatically turn it off after 15 mins but I prefer to leave it until she has been alseep for much longer before I do this.

Great idea made on the cheap
I have bought 2 of these lamps for my children's bed rooms. They work really well, dimming over 15 minuets and allowing my eldest to "read" (she isn't 2 yet) before she goes to sleep.
In the babies bedroom I have enough light to feed her then put her to bed with out being in pitch back or keeping her awake with the light.
Unfortunately the lamp looks pretty cheap and flimsy and the cable that comes with it is very short. The children do not have bedside tables as they are in cots and the cable length does not allow the lamp to be put on anything higher so I now need to purchase some extension cables.
In the mean time one of the lamps is on a window sill and has been knocked of frequently, the cheep looking manufacture has stood up to this very well (although the bulb has not).
