This lamp came well packaged.  I accidentally dropped the bottom of the lamp on our tile floor.  It got a little nick in the base but nothing major.  The lamp is a pretty gold color and I love the slim shade.  The base is heavy and secure.  The cord is very long and has a foot button to turn on and off.  This lamp also came with a light bulb and a remote (I plug all our lights into smart plugs and use my phone as a remote).  The lamp was easy to assemble and it gives off a pretty warm light.  This lamp is perfect to light up small spaces.
