I like the lamp. I would buy it again. However, the packaging from the factory was horrible. The metal on the lamp was actually assembled WRONG. There was No way to get a working lamp from what was in the box. Very disappointed after spending an hour trying to put it together. Once we figured out that it couldn’t not be assembled, The cord had to be disconnected and then the socket taken out and the metal poles were reassembled in a different order and then put the socket back onto the lamp. Then it could be properly put together so it worked. Once finished it was a good lamp, I like the shades and the three cords to customize the room lighting. The table area is a little unwieldy because it’s so high up the poles. I still like the lamp. Good Luck!
