I purchased these mini metal touch lamps as a gift for my sister. They arrived quickly and were packaged ok. After reading some reviews I was a little concerned that both lamps wouldn't work but they do. They earn three stars because one lamp has a scratch on the metal base and the felt bottom is coming loose on the other lamp. But they are cute and don't look cheesy like a lot of touch lamps. My sister really likes the lamps and she loves the four-way touch feature. Even though they're not the kind of lamp I would prefer, since she likes them, I'm satisfied with my purchase.
