As many reviewers previously, the only thing I don't like about this lamp is the base (esthetically speaking.) But it is easy to hide and due to the height of the lamp is nice and heavy, no concerns about it toppling over.
It gives a good amount of light and the design is easy to mix in with eclectic decor.
Mine arrived with the plastic crystals already strung in, so it was easy to put together in very little time.
