I'm crazy about these sconces.  I finally realized that we no longer use lamps on our bedside table to read, because we are reading on our devices, so mostly we only use the light to get into bed, set the alarm, etc.  I had my electrician install these next to the bed and he put an on/off switch on the wall below, just above the nightstands.  I put a 40W dim-able bulb in them, which gives off a soft glow.  My husband can get into bed, turn his side off and I can keep mine on without keeping him awake. Now the whole top of my nightstand is free! They are very attractive and a great value.
