We have been very satisfied with the purchase. The lamps provide the desired amount of light for my wife and me to read in bed. The lamps arrived in well packed boxes that minimized the chance for damage in transit. The assembly was easy, just screw the five parts together. Very pleased with the purchase. One negative about the lamp is that the bulb cannot be replaced although hopefully the LED bulb will out last the usefulness of the lamp considering the bulb's projected prolonged life scan.
