The item is great and having the dimmer switch is a wonderful feature on this project. This was placed in my home office and its very soothing to look at. The only reason I knocked off a star was the shipping. It was not shipped within another box and with additional padding, but the box that the lamp was in it itself so the picture of the item was on the outside of the box it was mailed in. I was actually afraid that it would be cracked or that it wouldn't work since our delivery person threw the box over our fence. Fortunately, item works fine. Not sure if this was shipped from Wayfair or directly from the manufacturer, but how its packaged and delivered needs to be improved.
