We have a large screen porch with sitting area and table and chairs, but no lighting. We like to play games at the table and have been using a table lamp and extension cords, a hideous and clumsy set up. This lamp was the perfect solution. I am disabled and was able to put the hooks into the ceiling beams and hang the lamp myself, I was too anxious to see how it would look to wait for help. We put hooks up over the sitting area as well because it is so easy to move this lightweight lamp. It is a very simple device, just a lightbulb on a cord with a drum shade but if you need overhead lighting away from electrical boxes it is a perfect solution. The plastic clips that hook the lamp to the cup hooks could be better designed but don’t interfere with the utility of the lamp.
