These were the only lamps that had the look I was going for. For what you get, I feel they are a bit expensive, but they do the job. They arrived packed in a box that was in a shipping envelope. I feel there could have been more padding for shipping since the box arrived partially crushed but everything inside was not damaged. The lamps feel a bit cheap when you take them out of the package. There really isn't much material to them. Assembly was easy though. 

I ended up switching the light bulbs for standard LED bulbs because the ones it came with change light temperature every time you use the switch and I found it a bit annoying to have to cycle through them each time. I also put on cord covers for a slightly cleaner look. Other than packaging and overall feel, I felt the cords were a bit short. The cords were plugged in behind a queen size bed and barely reached on either side.
