Baffled. When my package arrived, I thought they'd shipped me the wrong color because the lamp inside was a gray/slate. So I let Wayfair know and ordered a second one. The same thing happened again, at which point I realized that they're not sending the wrong color by mistake; the problem is that the lamp does not look black in person. I returned it (again). I don't recommend if you're looking for a true black lamp. They should update the product description.
