Customer Reviews of Philips Health GoLite M2 Blue Spectrum Light Therapy Device
Customer Review: Quit Working
Summary: 2 Stars
I've only used this lite a handful of times, when I needed it. I've had it for about 2-1/2 years and when I went to use it the other day I found out it only works when it's plugged in. The display shows that the battery was charging, and then it was fully charged, but nothing I do seems to be able to get it to work on battery power. If I have it plugged in, it works fine. But this defeats the "portability" which is the reason why I chose it over other models.
I do think it helps me with SAD, although it's hard to tell if this is due to a placebo effect. I only regret the purchase because it stopped working on batteries. Very disappointing to say the least.
Customer Review: I'd buy another one if this one broke
Summary: 4 Stars
Overall this is a good product. The sound on the headset is fantastic, and the mic is very responsive and clear. Everyone I speak to using it says that its a dramatic improvement over my previous lower quality mic. The charge lasts quite a while (around 6 hours on average) as well. I've been using it for around 2 weeks now and so far I've been pleased.
My only complaint is that I have a large head and the headset is just a tiny bit too small. This puts a little too much pressure on my head and ears, which after a few hours can get a little annoying. Its a minor issue though, and overall I'm really happy with it. I'd definitely buy it again.
Customer Review: SAD I sold my old SAD lite :(
Summary: 1 Stars
I had a great SAD lite but it was so huge. I read about this and it sounded great. Specifically the long battery life and portability. Well if you have blue eyes you better look for something else. I learned the hard way that many people with blue eyes get MIGRAINES from the blue light. YEP, happened to me. Then I tried to use it without the power and it only held a 30 min charge with 36 hours being plugged in. SAD to say it was not what I had high hopes of. So back it went. I'm Glad Amazon stands behind the products they sell and this was defective also since it didn't hold a charge as stated.Customer Review: Blue light didn't work for me
Summary: 2 Stars
This product was well-made and the company seems respectable, so I don't like having to give it a bad review. However, the blue lights just didn't work for me: no difference in mood, energy, or sleep patterns, and they actually gave me a bit of a headache.
I went back to use my 'Day Light' light, despite the fact that it is like a giant soccer stadium light and must emit some UV (since it puts blond streaks in my hair if I overuse it).
Sorry, Philips, its an otherwise good product, but the blue light doesn't seem to be my frequency.
Customer Review: Totally Satisfied!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this product for my wife who has a real hard time with the dark cloudy Michigan days during winter. Her circadian rythm has been really off this year too, so lack of sleep has really made the issue worse.
She has been using the product for a couple of weeks now following the recommendations given after a self evaluation from the manufacturer's site. She has now more energy and her sleep pattern has greatly improved. This model is cordless and small enough to be taken anywhere.
Given the results we've seen, it is worth every cent!
