I was looking for a lamp that wasn't very tall with an arch that wasn't extreme and a pull chain.  We have recessed lighting in our finished basement, but it wasn't enough for reading when my fiancé is playing video games.  I also needed to it fit between the couch and support beam.  This lamp is perfect.  I paid about $20 more than I wanted to, but it's exactly what I was looking for!  And it was on my doorstep within 10 days.

Pros: Adjustable, nice finish, pull chain
Cons: A bit pricey
