I realized that everything in my living room was brown and as such I needed some color so I purchased these lamps in yellow. They feel nice when you touch them and assembly was OK. One of the shades had an issue with the metal piece that "straightens it out" so I had to work really hard to bend it back.  

Pros: Looks cool, nice splash of color, feels nice
Cons: On one of the shades the metal thing was bent
