Now, without any further delay, let’s have a more detailed review at this awesome and ultra-modern smooth dimming lamp and check everything that the Gantri Encore has to offer you.
DESIGN & SPECS
Starting with the lamp’s size, the Gantri Encore comes at a very compact size, measuring just 9.11 inches long by 5.08 inches wide by 12.75 inches tall.
At the same time, the lamp’s rounded weighted base measures just 4.65 inches long by 4.65 inches wide, and despite its base being slightly smaller that its upper body, its specially weighted base ultimately helps to lower the lamp’s center of gravity to prevent any accidental tipping of the lamp when installing / placing it for the first time (or even reinstalling it). Additionally, the lamp is also somewhat lightweight, weighing just 5.4 lbs.
The lamp’s already-mentioned minimalist and ultra-sleek design gives it a very modern look that ultimately allows it to go really well with pretty much any style of home décor that you choose to go with.
The Gantri Encore’s body is mainly manufactured of Gantri Plant Polymers (or GPP), which are the world’s first plant-derived polylactic acid (PLA) blends that were engineered specifically for premium lighting products like this ultra-modern smooth dimming lamp.
Unlike traditional petroleum-based plastics, these natural materials make this smooth dimming lamp safe and sustainable, while also giving it a beautifully modern and minimalist look. The lamp’s body also features a soft-touch matte finish
Moving on to the lamp’s TPE power cord, the Gantri Encore also comes equipped with a very durable power cable (installed at the back of the unit) that measures exactly 92 inches long and integrates both the lamp’s dimmer switch and a flat wall plug at the end.
Then, moving slightly further up, we have the lamp’s light bulb. The Gantri Encore Table Light comes equipped with a 8.5W E26 LED Bulb that boasts a 850 Lumens of brightness in a 2700K Soft-White color temperature (with a nice 90+ CRI True Colors), making it perfect for your home as your bedside nightstand lamp, your home office desk light souce, or your living room’s reading lamp while you relax at your sofa.
The lamp’s 8.5W E26 LED Bulb is installed into its 100-120V US 2-prong plug, which is certified by SGS for UL (Underwriter Laboratories third-party certification that sets this newly released lamp – meaning a new product within the market – to be up to industry-wide standards) as well as a CSA certification (the CSA registered mark shows that a product has been independently tested and certified to meet recognized standards for safety or performance). Both of these certifications also make this smooth dimming lamp a viable choice to go with for anyone that has young children (or elderly members living with them) and is worried about their younger (or older) family members’ safety.
Additionally, around the lamp’s 8.5W E26 LED Bulb, the Gantri Encore also integrates a translucent GPP diffuser with a protective coating, which basically helps to diffuse / scatter its 2700K Soft-White Light in a better way.
Lastly, this lamp is also very energy efficient, as it works at an industry-leading efficiency of 100 lumens / watt.
CONTROLS
Now, when it comes to the lamp’s dimmable switch – which can be found integrated onto its proprietary power cord, just about 18″ from the base of the lamp – this dimmable switch features a very simple slide-control button, which allows users to easily turn the lamp On and Off, going exactly from 0K to a 2700K color temperature.
COMPATIBILITY
It’s also worth to mention that for Smart Home enthusiasts that are fans of Philips’s Smart Bulbs, the Gantri Encore is also compatible with Philips Hue E26 Smart Bulb, which is definitely a plus.
