Abstract: The aim of this short note is to revisit some old results about groups of intermediate growth and groups of the lamplighter type and to show that the Lamplighter group $L=mathbb{Z}_{2}wrmathbbZ$ is a condensation group and has a minimal presentation by generators and relators. The condensation property is achieved by showing that $L$ belongs to a Cantor subset of the space $mathcal{M}_2$ of marked 2-generated groups consisting mostly of groups of intermediate growth.
