This lamp is serviceable, but overall poor construction.  It holds together fine, however the shade comes flat and has to be 'folded' into a square profile, and is held by tiny little pegs at only one end, so the bottom is square and the top ends up a bit more like a diamond (or parallelogram).  The screw that holds a clamp for the cord pulled out of the particleboard shelf it was screwed in to, so the cord hangs obviously instead of running nearly down the back.  The hole was stripped out just by the weight of the cord alone.
