Big light means there's either a problem, an argument, or you've lost something.

Love oil lamps to be honest. Something very endearing about them.

Yes I have an 'uplight' in lounge and dining rooms. Much better ambience than main lights.

Yeah, prefer lamps very rarely use the over head lights, and mostly the kitchen one. It'll be natural light,as that fades, switch to a lamp

Change the bulb if your partner annoys you with the big light.

Or switch it out from white light type to yellow light.

The big light only comes on if you’re looking for an argument…it’s a sure fire way to get my back up if it’s on

I strongly disagree. I love the big light. I hate when people turn them off and have dingy, orange coloured rooms with lots of shadows. Big light and clear vision all the way please

I hate that creepy orange light that creates shadows and makes everything look like we are still living in the 1970s

Those would be our side lights and I love them! The big lights are super bright spotlights and I am NOT a fan

We use the big light when having dinner as the lamp doesn't really help seeing what you are eating, I don't mind but doughnut likes to see his food and yes, we have smart bulbs and yes we rarely actually turn a light switch on or off, even when Alexa tells us it's sunset we say thank you to her lol x

I want my big light in my living room back.

As a teenager we always had the big light on in the living room and I'm used to it.

I don't know when my parents stopped using lamps, as I remember having standard lamps on as a child.

I like a lamp in my bedroom, but I can't read books properly in lamplight.
