This lamp looks great. We very much like the style and design. This is one that mimics the look and design of very high end lamps at a very low end price point. The problem is with the base. On carpet I have to place something in the front of the base to keep it from tipping over. The base is not big/heavy enough to hold this large lamp head up. Too bad because it sure looks good. And for the cost I may just have to have another bottom made.
