Received my two lamps on time. Boxes were in good condition. The product was well packed in Styrofoam. Each lampshade uses a 60 watt light bulb. Make sure you dont use a bigger wattage bulb. I mistakenly used a 75watt bulb and in less than 5 minutes I noticed smoke coming from the lamp. I removed it immediately and replaced it with the correct bulb and all was well. I've used them everyday since I got them. I like that each lampshade is independent so I can either turn on one or both to suit my needs. They complement my mid century end tables beautifully. I am very happy I bought them.
