Don’t do it. 
Prior review Happy enough with this purchase ..I think. I kept the box just in case a return is needed ..thats the general feel about it. The Desk Lamp looks exactly like the one pictured, its just a little bendier and loose in the stem than I was expecting. I mean, for the price youre not going to get a super quality lamp, youre going to get a fine one. So the lamp is fine and it will serve its purpose while looking cool (high importance). lol

***year later update*** I resorted to taping the stem to a neighboring bookcase to keep the lamp up to get by. It will be tossed eventually, unfortunately.
