I was worried what I would find when I opened the box as it was super damaged, but the lamp appears to be intact. The slim design works well in my small living room. It comes with a remote that offers many functions. It has preset levels depending on if you are reading or on a computer or for nighttime. I like that you can switch between cool and warm white. It took me 5 minutes to setup, and included batteries for the remote and an LED bulb.
