5.0 out of 5 stars Where to buy floor stand lamps., December 21, 2004

I'm tired of looking all over the internet and visiting stores that either have very expensive or very crappy floor lamps. I came across this one and was surprised to see it so cheap and at least holding the feeling of elegance.

The package arrived and I assembled it in a few minutes, no where on the package does it say you have to let it warm up the first time. Basically you just don't turn it up all the way on the first time of usage. You're provided with an extra halogen lightbulb in case the first one goes out and I think the neat thing of the lamp is it will turn off if it leans too far.

The light is very bright and does a good job at illuminating my entire living room although I'm sure you might need two of them if you have a huge house. I bought two of them for my apartment and I'll say this lamp is well worth the value.

1.0 out of 5 stars Upset, January 25, 2005

I really liked the halogen floor lamp that I got. It was very pretty and matched my room perfectly. It only came with a 190W bulb and I ordered a 300W lamp. I got a quick reponse from American Lighting on this issue and was told I could use an extra 300W bulb I had at home as there was not an extra one in the package. My lamp worked for one day. The next day it did not work and has not worked since. I have left four messages with the customer service person at American Lighting and have not received any kind of response. All I want is a lamp that works or for someone to tell me how I can fix the one that they sent to me. I am disappointed because I was excited to have the lamp and American Lighting has let me down.

I ordered the 300 watt version and it arrived via ground in a little over a week. The lamp takes maybee 4 minutes to assemble and is very solid and heavy. It came with the 300 Watt bulb as advertised, it may help if you phone the company directly instead of purchasing it off the web. Anyways it works and as another customer stated it is hard to find one of these with the dimmer so I will purchse a few more for my house later on.

Expect a few dings on the base of the unit. Also, the dimmer switch on mine seems to need some oiling or it is just poor in quality.
