I am so pleasantly surprised by these lamps! They are beautiful, functional, and easy to assemble. I balked at having to attach the lampshades to the included iron foundations but it was surprisingly simple, even for someone like myself with a lifelong case of dyspraxia. With the included (very cool looking) light bulbs I had both lamps assembled and in place in less than 10 minutes. The touch function works well and the USB ports put out plenty of power. These are perfect bedside table lamps!
