Determine what height you prefer. They're not all the same height. My personal preference is one that, when I'm sitting down next to it, I can't see the whole bulb exposed while looking up at it.

I'm looking for one that will go next to my bed, so I would like it to be about the same height/taller than the bed's headboard. I think that's about 4 and a half or 5 feet?

The shorter ones seem to be 58". I'd recommend one that can handle 3-way bulb.

I love lamps.. I have 6 in my living room, not counting the light of my ceiling fan. Only one turned at a time, unless it's a really dark day.

I’ll look into that, thanks!

I meant that I don't want to see the bulb, or most of it, when I'm sitting down next to the lamp. Trust me, for a floor lamp next to you when you're sitting you don't want one of the tall ones.
