I was very disappointed in the quality of the floor lamp.  I like the concept of it, but it is very poorly put together.  The screws don't tighten up well; the paint is scraping off in some places, and the bent arm on which the shade rests is slightly tilted to one side and is not bent at right angles - it extends on a downward slant.  Only because it is in the back bedroom providing light, did I decide to keep it.  It is not a lamp you would want to place in an area where it would be seen all the time.
