The lamp was super easy to put together.  It gave you instructions but you really don't even need them, it was that easy.  It has a floor switch to use and also comes with a remote.  I like the fact that it dims and brightens with the remote.  The only thing I didn't like was that if you use a regular light bulb the remote doesn't work.  You have to use a "smart" bulb for it to work.  I would be fine with it just going on and off and working with the remote with a regular bulb.   Besides that everything else about it is wonderful.
