So i give this a 4 because I had to return it.  it is a VERY NIVE lamp and i liked the concept.  i was looking for an ambient light lamp like my older rice paper rectangular lamp.  The photo is accurate except that it is excessively bright and the "soft" light is not really soft.  The photo makes it look softer and more yellow than it turned out to be.  It takes a LONG TIME to assemble and even longer to disassemble and ship back.  I am not mad at this lamp or anyone, but if you want subdued, ambient, soft light, this is NOT the right choice
