I could not be more thrilled with my new Foo Dog lamps. Even my ten year old daughter was impressed. She said that my room had never looked so good! I think that their traditional style, and fun contemporary colors, makes them a great way to transition a room that is too formal or stuffy toward a more contemporary lamp. They are equally suited to ramp up the formality in a too casual room, without over doing it. They were well packaged, arrived very quickly, and are good quality, especially for the insanely reasonable price.
