This lamp sits in the corner of my office and its a nice piece. if anything its a little flimsy, not a huge concern because you place and dont really touch it much after that, the pull cord has a very good quality action, feels very positive. The shelving is awesome, gives me extra space which otherwise would be dead space., maybe recommend higher quality materials for the frame but aside from that I would recommend this. it doesn't give out a huge amount of light for functional use but its a nice feature.
