I really love this clean & comfy look of this lamp. After 4 months the lamp went out on me. Not sure how it happened but I tried pulling the string to turn on and it would not turn on. I thought it was my plug so I plugged the lamp in different areas of my house and it still doesn't work. It's a bummer I really like this lamp and considered purchasing another one to match both sides but now I'm not sure if I should purchase from this brand anymore.
