Awesome lamp! Get so many compliments. One of the ceramic light sockets was cracked but we were able to work around it. (In our opinion, It would have been too much of a hassle to return it). It has great weight to it and looks perfect in our loft apartment. I do wish it was able to stand freely, but we have to tuck the bottom of it under our couch to balance the weight so it won't tip over. Would definitely recommend this product.
