I have the Tisdag LED lamp and while I like the look and light (small radius, good temp and brightness), it makes a faint drone that can be either easily ignored or crazy annoying depending on my mood. It also uses a non-replacable bulb, limiting its ultimate lifespan.

I really question the point of lists like this. Simply creating a 'Misery Index' and not going any further than that seems lazy, though I suspect something like this exists mainly to bring meager joy to the people who don't live in these cities.

I live in Cleveland (just bought my first house here last Fall), and while there are problems here, 'misery' is a very loaded, inaccurate word. I've also been to Detroit and the problems there are staggering...but I know the people I met there would take issue with being called 'miserable'.

I had the same thought. Maybe a laminate like this? http://www.lumberliquidators.com/ll/c/Vintner's-Reserve-Laminate-Dream-Home-St.-James-12VR-S/10023865

About to do my kitchen with something similar, I hope it looks as good as this!

I use my plumens more as sculptural pieces, almost like lamps themselves. They're too pricey to not emphasize.
