Delivery was fast. Lamp is perfect and just as described. Love it!! The lamp was well packaged with base in one long box and lamp shade in another box. All you need to do is place the shade on the base, plug and light. I have two minor "cons" and one is that the wires in the shade show thru. Maybe that's supposed to be part of the 'look' but I think it looks cheap. The shade and the base are both well made and quite sturdy so overall I love the lamp. The other 'con' is the instructions for the light bulb. One description states the light should be incandescent and in another place it says type A 20 watt. There is no such thing as a type A 20 watt incandescent bulb and if there was, it would be barely better than a night light. I almost did not buy the lamp for fear it would require some odd ball bulb that would be too dim, but took a chance anyway. I have the light plugged into an outlet controlled by a dimmer wall switch. I put in a dimmable GE brand led bulb, 8.5 watt, 800 lumens which is equal to a 60 watt incandescent bulb. I could probably go higher with 100 equivalent, but I think it would not be good to go up to a 20 watt LED bulb without checking with an electrician (not sure they even make a 20 watt LED). They would likely sell more of these if they would correct the bulb requirements. I looked at other floor lamps from same company and they are clear about the bulb, so it seems to just be with this lamp. Hope this helps.

This lamp is a great addition to our living room. I’m going to add a ceramic planter with a fern or snake plant to finish the area by the fireplace. The ambient light from this floor lamp in the evening is beautiful. It’s a solid home accessory

I used several of these floor lamps in a beachfront penthouse to give beautiful accents to a peaceful room.
