When you're trying to relax and read a book in the living room, there's arguably nothing worse than sitting with the harsh 'big light' on. Soft ambient lighting is much more preferable, with glow from lamps and candles creating a cosy and inviting atmosphere.
Adding soft lights to a space doesn't have to be costly investment, especially at Argos. The high-street retailer has a bestselling floor lamp that shoppers say they are 'really pleased with', being an ideal option for when you to curl up on the sofa with a book or magazine.

Product Features
The Home Father and Child Floor Lamp creates the perfect spot for relaxing thanks to its soft ambient uplighting with an adjustable reading light. The main uplighter casts a gentle glow across your room while the smaller spotlight lets you focus on your book or crossword without disturbing others.
Ideal beside your favourite armchair or in a living room corner where flexible lighting is needed. The silver effect finish adds a classic touch for modern or traditional interiors, and the sturdy metal base keeps it stable.
The inline switch makes it easy to turn on and off without bending down to the plug, and minimal assembly means you'll have it set up in no time. It takes one E27 bulb up to 60 watts for the main light and one E14 bulb up to 40 watts for the reading light, so you can choose your preferred brightness and light colour.
The long 1.8m cable gives you flexibility with placement, and the durable metal and plastic construction is built to last. Plus, it comes with a one-year manufacturer's guarantee for complete peace of mind.
Customer Reviews
Back at Argos, the Home Father and Child Floor Lamp has racked up an overall star-rating of 4.4 out of five based on 2,067 reviews. One satisfied shopper said: "Really pleased with the father and daughter lamp. Easy to assemble and is perfect for reading. Great price, fast dispatch and delivery."
A second wrote: "Bought this just over a week ago because I needed a new lamp and my daughter has one. It's great can position behind sofa. Point smaller lamp in any direction needed. If need to can use large lamp."
"Bought two of these lamps for the conservatory," a third penned. "We already had two in the lounge and were really pleased with them. Bright, attractive and a good price."
One shopper, however, wasn't as impressed with the Home Father and Child Floor Lamp and gave it a three-star review. It reads: "Looks good but not the easiest to assemble. A bit flimsy and bulbs are quite pricey."
"Looks good or rather, better than it is," another three-star review mentions. "It works well enough and looks a lot better than the feel of it as you put it together. It is value for money."
Nevertheless, someone else loved their latest Argos purchase, adding: "Excellent value for the price. Offers the versatility of a simple reading/task light combined with an uplighter. I haven't seen another retailer offering this product at a better price."
Another five-star review reads: "Gorgeous floor lamps which look great in our living room. They give a lovely bright light and the ability to angle the 'child' is a fantastic bonus. Easy assembly."
