Listen to the other reviews. The base and the lamp do not line up correctly. If like others, and me, its tucked under a sofa, then it works. Otherwise this could be a good product. Nice to have the switch and dimmer on the pole, and not another remote. Shade is jankie and at some point I will replace it. The instructions are useless.

Absolutely love it . The dimmer switch is so helpful ! Great for my needs

A good lamp for the price point

I bought two lamps and this one was definitely of a much lower quality than the other - however, it was also half the price -) the shade on this is a little flimsy for my liking. It comes rolled up and you unroll and attach it to the frame. So if you’re in a place where you’re gonna be looking up underneath the lamp a lot - for example, in a main living room, which is where I originally plan to have it - I didn’t like being able to see the clips and wished for a different choice in the lampshade. It appears to be mostly steady. I debated on returning it, but it was a good price and I didn’t want to have to repack everything after the time to assemble it. So I decided to put it next to a bed in a guestroom instead and I think it’ll work well there. 

Lamp is nicer than I expected. Love the way it dims and the height is perfect for the living room and as a reading lamp
