I was so excited to get this lamp. My heart sank when I opened the box and sensed that I was getting someone else's returned item. The styrofoam was broken and the components where rewrapped. I forged forward anyway. The ceramic portion of the lamp is exactly as advertised. It's a sweet lamp, but the components are defective. My lamp did not assemble correctly, and required time and frustration. As a result both the base and neck aren't tight to the lamp, and it's just so disappointing. I don't understand why the lamp didn't come assembled. One excepts to assemble the harp, shade and finial, but not tread the electrical cord through the lamp, attach the socket and neck, too. I love Wayfair and I kinda think they need to have a conversation with their vendor, Jonathon Y, regarding quality control. I kept the lamp because it was on sale and it's just such a hassle to mail back. But, buyer beware.
