Fast delivery, very well packed/secured and easy to assemble, this is not a heavy lamp but I'm impressed as to how it looks/functions in my TV room as both a decorative item and one to read by.  The only negative was the strong chemical odour that you could also 'taste' upon unwrapping which, thankfully, wasn't long-lasting.   I assume the chemical wash was to prevent oxidation/rusting damage during shipment?   I would definitely recommend buying this lamp.
