Living room chair for reading and general illumination. I have cathedral ceilings and the torchiere light is nearly lost in the height. I would do better to have a down angle illumination lamp. The spots are great. Turning knobs are perfect for using while sitting. And I love the dimmer. Overall the best I have found for my criteria. I would recommend it.

Assembly is tricky

Area Of Illumination, Convenient On/Off

The assembly is problematic because the threaded piece that connects the to parts of the center shaft is plastic and if you miss the threads it is hard to get it straight. Mine is permanently tilted, which was annoying

The reading lamp we had between our chairs broke and now we're glad it did. This new lamp is great. The top light gives the entire room plenty of light and having the dimmer is really nice. The two side reading lights are perfect for us. This was our first experience with Lamps Plus and we're very pleased.

Bought this lamp for my son's bedroom where it is the only light in his room. It sits on very thick carpet and is much sturdier than his last one which tended to tip a bit. This one is solid and iluminates the entire space. Easily put together and a great value.

This was bought as a gift for my son's new condo. Photos of it in place and his comments make it clear that it functions as expected. It makes an artistic statement, provides ambient light, and serves as a reading lamp, too.

Attractive, versatile, good value

By lampshopper

from New York, NY on 5/14/2008

Pros:

Long Cord, Artistic Design, Convenient On/Off, Area Of Illumination

Cons:

Best Uses:

Reading, Dark Corners, Decoration

Describe Yourself:

Stylish, Practical

Primary Use:

Personal

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The 3 lights (top, and two on pole) are separately controlled with their own switches -- a very useful feature. When ordering I assumed the ring around each light was glass, but turned out to be plastic (acrylic?). I realized that glass of that thickness would have made it very heavy, and this looks just as good.
