Assembling the shade is ridiculous. The objective is for the long sheet (Be aware its curved to allow a larger bottom. Dont get it wrong!), with one small strip of velcro at each end, to adhere to a sticky substance onto the top and then the bottom metal base... IF there is an adhesive on the metal. The top of one had sparse spots, no solid line. One was perfect. One had maybe half the adequate adhesive. Can you pick the faulty lamp Terribly disappointed.
