These lamps reflect an industrial vibe, which is not really what I espouse.  However, I thought they would be great for our bedside tables for a few reasons. You turn the switch and the nightlight comes on.  Switch a second time and the bulb comes on and the nightlight goes off.   One more switch and both are on. I like the options. I also like that I can charge my Kindle by plugging into the lamp.  The construction seems good, although the "cage"  seems a little less than great.  Overall, I am happy with the lamps.
