I was a little skeptical about ordering since some of the reviews complained that the long pole was not straight.  I took a chance and ordered the lamp since it exactly fitted the small space I had next to a chair in my living room.  I definitely needed the extra lighting and this, following assembly, fit my needs perfectly.  The delivery came within a day, which surprised me.  On opening the packaging, one of the glass globes was cracked all the way around.  I immediately emailed the company and asked they replace the glass globe.  They responded immediately and shipped the replacement part out the next day.  This lamp looks the best when you use the deorative edison bulbs.  The bulbs average about $5. a piece.  That is somewhat costly, though they are expected to last 13 years.  All the poles were straight and I got exactly what I had hoped for in design and fitting into a small space.
