This floor lamp is just “okay”. Assembly is easy enough. We purchased 2. One for each end of our sectional couch. My main issue is the inconsistency of the finish of the tubes that make up the posts. We needed a floor lamp that leaned in as we don’t have room for end tables with a lamp. It’s a great concept and space saving lighting option. It has a bit of a retro feel but that may be the direction we seem to be going with our living room furnishings. Initially I was like, “What are other buyers talking about the lamp easily tipping over”. Well the chaise end of our sectional separated a couple inches into the floor lamp and it tipped over like a tree falling. It really doesn’t take much. We will figure out a way of weighting the “V” shaped base down. Will this be a long term solution for lighting both ends of the couch not sure as yet. Temporarily it works and is a very inexpensive solution.
