I like this little desk lamp. It looks great in my office. One thing I will say is that it requires a small bulb, which I had to purchase separately after I received the lamp. It was not hard to find, however. Another thing is that because of where the bulb sits in the shade, not all of the colors illuminate evenly. There is a hot spot at the top with the blue and yellow. It's still pretty, however, especially in the dark.
