Cute design but had troubles with assembly. We could not get the base on in the right direction. The threads on the pole attachment points were really rough and we ended up cross threading it. The shades didn’t really hang level. And I thought there was a three-way switch, but my mistake, I guess. I really wanted to return it, but could not undo the crossed threads. Who can get a item like that back in the box anyway? So we kept it and put some special light bulbs that diffuse the light at the bottom of the bulb. It works ok.
