We bought this lamp for our guest room (also got the chair off wayfair!), its not bad. I will say it looks better than I expected, given my husband picked it out. Haha! The base is has a nice weight to it and the USB port is a nice bonus. The only things I am unhappy with is the goldbronze rod holding the lap portion is very wobbly. The table top is also kind of unstable feeling, though not nearly as wobbly as lamp rod. As weighty as the base is, it really doesnt sit too well on carpet. Almost like it needs to be heavier to he a sturdy flat base for carpet. It looks nice with the chair we got though, and since its just for our guest room it serves its purpose so well keep it. Haha!
