These lamps are very attractive. They were easy to put together. The enclosed instructions were great, which is not always the case with "assembly required" products. The lamp comes with a plug-in cord, which is how I use it, but also comes with wire nuts and instructions on how to direct wire it into your house's wiring if you wish. The swing arm works smoothly. The whole design is very convenient. The lamp can be pulled close when extra light is needed, and pushed back out of the way when it isn't. All in all, a great product.

Pros: Great price, easy to assemble, option to direct-wire or plug in, classic style.
