For the price I was hoping for a little higher quality - mine arrived with a slight imperfection on one of the legs, a crooked light socket and uneven light pulls.  the two legs are a little tricky to align together based on the way the lamp is assembled, but after playing around with them I was able to get the lamp to stand straight/sturdy.  The lamp shade is also grey, not beige as described or shown in the pictures.  Since the shade is an odd shape, chances of me getting an alternate beige one to fit are slim, so I am ultimately returning the lamp.  if not for the color discrepancy, I probably would have still kept the purchase.
