I recently moved into our home, and it is dark at night. Close your eyes dark and my kids where not feeling it. They went from sleeping all together in one room to everyone having their own room and it was just overwhelming for them. So I tried another night light from Wayfair and it was not bright at all. THIS light is wonderful! You can change the brightness at the bottom so it can go from 100 to 50 percent brightness. It comes with a USB cord so this is helpful because I can plug into the kids cable box and it works well. It can also take batteries which is helpful for camping. Best purchase for my kids room!
