i currently own no lanterns. can anyone recommend any to have on hand in case the power in the house goes out?
The Coleman dual fuel lanterns are nice and bright but to my knowledge not safe to use indoors unless you have a good source of fresh air and good ventilation for the CO that they put off. I would go with a good old fashioned oil lamp or as has been suggested there are plenty of bright led lamps that are perfectly safe and last quite a while on a set of batteries.
I got this one just for that purpose. Plenty bright and works for me.

I don't use a lantern often, but when I do, i use a Coleman.
Stay illuminated, my friends.
Seriously, I have two Coleman lanterns which use Coleman fuel (Camp gas) and the mesh thingys (name escapes me now.) They are very bright, if a bit loud, but they are also pretty durable and parts are easy to get and not expensive. Also nice if you don't have ready access to electricity to recharge.
