Very cute lamp, solid base, easy to put together, looks great. I love the gold accents between the segments. The shade is a bit short but I think I just need to adjust to it. Its nice to get my table lamp off the teeny end table and gain some space. Im using a smart bulb in mine so I havent tried the remote yet. The switch is a stepfloor switch but this lamp will be voice activated anyway. Overall very happy with this lamp.
