whatever you decide - try before you buy - the light can be quite different effect for different people - and can cause headaches etc or just be difficult to use if the light "colour" is not right.
PS - you can always make one if you have a fluro light, sheet of perspex and are a bit handy.

i made my own very easy and made it to a2 size as it alows me to work on larger work!
needs to be about 5 inches deep maybe moreand the other dimensions are that of the paper you wish to use. i use 2x6inch thick wood and used a router to make a lip on which to place the acryli/saftey glass. i glued and pinned together and reinforced th corners. i use a sheet of glass i frosted my self (much cheaper) and fitted in to the box used window putty to hold in place. made it a few years ago and its still works fine!
standard lamp fitting and 40 watt bulb provides the light
