This is a nice looking lamp. The base is weighted so it doesn’t tip easily. The articulating body works smoothly and seems secure. There is an AC electrical outlet on the top of the base. I wish it was a USB port instead, but it will do. Unfortunately, the lamp I received has some sort of stain on the top of the base. Looks like it is etched into the finish because it will not wipe off with a damp cloth. I will probably be returning it.
