I am about to return it. Putting it together, keeping it straight was when joining the pieces was one thing. The last straw was trying to attach the lamp shade. I tried so many times bit it seems the screws are not long enough to meet the shade. I would like to return but I already threw away the packing. Shame on me.  I also may not return because of the time spent already and may buy the right length screws to attach the lampshade. Do not buy it!
