Love this floor lamp! Packaged very nicely. It took about an hour to assemble. It looks great and the base is sturdy. The light switch by the cord is helpful! Very easy to turn onoff with your foot, I’m 5’2” so it doesn’t even hit my head when I’m right under it. We wanted to have something that wouldn’t be too bright but would provide enough light while we’re watching TV. This is perfectly what we needed.
