I like the light a lot but it’s not very good quality. Mean it looks good and the shade is nice but my son needed to shorten the cord and he had a hard time taking the cord out of the base and then trying to put it back in. I guess there was like a little plastic screw in the base that he just could not break loose so he had to drill it out. But all in all the light is a nice light. I’m just not sure it was worth what I paid. Oh and I have it on a dimmer and it works fine. It says that the light won’t dam but it does. ￼￼￼￼￼￼￼
