I really like everything about the lamps ; EXcept for 2 things. !st the angle of the extension ISN'T  straight  after the screw is tightened. Resulting in the upper half of the lamp  ISN'T straight..2ndly, one of the lamps extension pole's  thick plastic cover ( that should stay in the base pole) pulled up with the extension pole - making the top portion even more crooked..
