This is pretty lamp and it gives much needed light (100 watt bulb) to a bedroom that doesnt have an overhead light. I put in on a dresser and the wall switch turns on the lamp. I realized after I bought it that my cell phone doesnt use a USB port so I am wondering why I paid extra for the ports, but maybe they will be handy for other things. The lamp has a very thick cord and a 3 prong connector. At first I thought I would need to buy a heavy duty extension cord for it but it turns out we cont need an extension cord so its all good.

It was a perfect gift for my sister. She had admired a lamp at a resort with on/off push button & USB port on base that was traditional in style. After much looking, I found this. Many others had the port, but not the on/off button.
