SUNUV UV Lamps for Gel Nails, Professional LED Nail Lamp for Gel Polish, Curing Light Dryer with Auto Sensor, LCD Display for Home and Salon

I had previously used cheap lamps but decided to invest in this one, and it’s honestly made doing my nails at home so much easier. It cures gel polish really fast, I usually use the 60 second setting to make sure it’s set and the automatic sensor is super handy. You just slide your hand in and it turns on by itself, which feels quite fancy. The LCD timer is clear and easy to read too.What I like most is that it’s lightweight but still big enough to fit a whole hand or foot comfortably, so you’re not bumping your nails. It’s been reliable every time and hasn’t overheated, even with longer sessions.If I had to nitpick, the finish on the outside shows smudges easily, and the fan could be a little stronger, but for the price, it’s a brilliant little lamp that gives salon-level results at home. Definitely worth it if you do gel nails regularly.

So I’ve been a professional nail technician for 10 years and when working on clients, I would always use the branded lamp of the brand that I used. This normally means that the price is greatly inflated because of branding.Having recently given up my nail business, I wanted to find a cheap lamp that I could use, just to do my own nails. Luckily the nanometer of this lamp matched what was required by the gel polish brand I use so I decided to give it a go.The lamp is pretty simple to use. Simply plug it in and it automatically is on and ready to go. There are 4 buttons on top that you can press once your hand is in the light that will do a designated time of 10 seconds, 30 seconds or 60 seconds. There’s also a 99 second timer where by the lights come on at half strength and after about 60 seconds increase to full level which means it’s great for products that are prone to giving a heat spike because it’s slowly starts the curing process.If you just place your hand in the light, it will count up. I’m not sure how high it goes, but I got just shy of two minutes and it was still counting. There are sensors that sense your hand are going in the light, but it would be nice if you could select the set amount of time that you wanted, put your hand in and then it counted that time down. My previous lamp also beeped when the timer was finished which this one doesn’t, but that’s only trivial.The light itself isn’t particularly weighty, it does feel quite thin and flimsy compared to the lamp I previously used, so it does move about on the table a bit if the wire is hanging down, but it did an absolutely fantastic job of curing my gel. It’s nice and shiny as it should be, there’s no signs of it, not being cured properly and it’s the fraction of the price of a branded light.If you are trading to the public, then by insurance requirements, you must use the lamp created for your brand, but for a home user, I recommend this one because it has the correct wavelength and nanometre to cure the majority of gel polishes on the market.I’m really pleased with it, and it’s simple to pop away back in its box once you’re done until you want to give yourself a new manicure

I use this in my salon. Never let's me down. Various timer settings or automatic on when hands go in. Great lamp

Dies what its supposed to do

Bought this lamp because - even in lockdown - I like my nails to look good. I tried to do my homework well in comparing all the available models and the Sun seems to come out best. I had noticed that my nail technician's lamp was also a Sun, which gave me added confidence in my purchase.Its an attractive piece of equipment which seems to work well. I like the added bonus that I can use gel polish or gel build up with this lamp - if I so wished.I also like - the fact that curing does not take as long as with some lamps.its size - allowing room for a small hand as well as a much larger oneand can be easily transported when I am away from home.the fact that the bottom can be removed - either for easy cleaning or for toe curing.the way the lights are evenly spread around the inside of the lamp for even curingand the dual temperature curing function.If there is one negative for me, its that the cable could be longer.It is a bit more expensive than the rest but, as long as it lasts me a little while, I can cope with that.I will continue to have my nails done by a professional technician but will find it more than useful if I have to continue to do my own for the foreseeable future, as well as for taking away with me on holiday to deal with any mishaps and to carry out any repairs in between visits.20th July 2025I have now had my lamp for 3 years and I have to say it has been all over the UK with me every time we went away in our tourer and recently staying in hotels and cottages. It has worked well and is still going strong. I have used it quite a lot n other people’s broken nails as well as s8ng it for myself. I do not go anywhere withou5 i5 and hopefully it will last me for years to come.I would definitely recommend to anyone who likes to keep nice nails or who regularly breaks them by constantly having them in hot water.

I had high hopes for this lamp and in the first few months it was working as intended. Bought this in February, 2025 - it always struggled with darker gel polish, but managed to cure layers at least in 2-3 minutes... however, by November, 2025 it would not cure gel polish properly at all, even after curing layers for 5+ minutes. I've had cheaper lamps before that lasted at least for a year! I've hardly used this lamp as I only do my own nails, maybe once every 2 months when I can be bothered with it. I know these lamps aren't supposed to last too long due to how they're built, but paying £50 for a lamp that couldn't even get through 12 months with occasional use is ridiculous. Don't get fooled by the good reviews, as most leave one after a few weeks or so, when these lamps still manage to cure gel polish and hardly anyone comes back to update after a few months of use. This was my second sunUV lamp, neither lasting longer than 13 months. I'm fed up buying Amazon UV/LED lamps that don't do what they're intended to do after a few months of sporadic use and considering buying a professional salon lamp, not just because it becomes pretty much as expensive over time, but also I can't stand the waste these useless devices produce.

Good quality

Very good quality lamp. Counts down the time which is great.
