I purchased this lamp for a bedroom that has a 
small window and little light. 
I always feel as if I'm in a cave.  
I had a lamp on my end table and even though
It had a three way light, it was still dark in the 
opposite corner.  
This lamp having multiple lights really serves
my purpose and laminates much more of
my room.
Not a elegant lamp, but a good deal and not
flimsy, for the money.   
I would recommend.
