After I tightened the nut on the base of the lamp, it still wouldn’t stand up fully straight. Enough for me to want to return it honestly. Also, the shade looks really cheap when you get up close and notice it’s just rolled and snapped into place. Lastly, the switch being on the wire means you can’t really have the lamp near a couch with wires behind the couch because you won’t be able to turn on your lamp LOL
