I worried about purchasing this lamp as I had seen some lamps of another brand in stores that looked cheap and flimsy. This lamp's base is heavily weighted and the brass has a beautiful finish. The light swivels out of the way incase it is too bright when not reading or crafting. I use it for knitting and reading. I am really pleased with this lamp. This is another case where it pays to spend a little more.

This is an outstanding lamp for crafters as well as readers. Very easy to assemble, the components are high quality, with an antique brass finish. The round base is heavy and quite stable. The adjustable height and angle of the lamp makes it convenient for many uses, whether sitting in a chair or working at a table. The ability to rotate the lamp 'head' out of the way when not in use is beneficial. The bulb is a true white light and will not alter the color of craft materials or other objects. The interior of the bulb cover is a shiny chrome-like metal, enhancing the effectiveness of the bulb. My only concern is the potential for damage to the eyes, not only to people but to pets as well, by looking directly at the lit bulb. Overall, I am completely satisfied not only with its features and quality, the reasonable price makes this lamp a tremendous bargain.

I bought my floor lamp 3 years ago from QVC. The brite bulb does help with reading, sewing, etc.
But now I need a replacement bulb and the lamp is no longer carried by QVC. Ace Hardware sells same lamp but not the bulbs.
Does anyone know of a substitute bulb that will not harm the lamp or overheat causing a fire?
Thanks.

This unit is about half of the price of similar ones. It is almost identical to the one it replaced which makes me wonder if all of these brands come out of the same Chinese factory. But this one is far superior in that it has two stems allowing it to raise and lower effortlessly and to swing away easily. Its 27 watt fluorescent bulb is not as bright as the high priced version but the good news is that it has a standard base which means you can replace it with a variety of bulbs that do not cost $20. Unbelievable delivery and service from Ace. Better product and fast delivery for half the price does not happen to often.

This lamp has a nice solid base. It gives great light but not too harsh. It is the kind of lamp I wanted - not too institutional.

This full spect27W item is a well made, heavy floor lamp. The parts screw together well and the overall look is attractive. I recommend it.

Very satisfied with the purchase, after I received the first one, I bought 2 more lamps

This lamp showed up pretty much as described and depicted in the on-line pix. The lamp itself was harsher than i had expected, and stopped working within a few weeks. Rather than hassle with returning it and asking for a refund, I replaced it with one of those mercury low wattage bulbs, and it's OK.

The lamp has that classic look that I wanted, but the performance has only been so-so.

I ordered this Lamp in early May and had the cost collected from my Visa Accuunt on May 8th. I had not received the Lamp a month later.Explanations from Ace Hardware Outlets regarding shipping were redirected to my Junk Mail folder and I only found the when I was cleaning up my folders. My apologys to ACE and Amazon for my earlier remarks.
I have since received the Lamp and am totally satisfied. It's a great lamp and great value.
The shipping problems were at our end and we received it in excellent condition. The system works in following up by ACE Hardware and UPS. I wouldn't hesitate to reccomend this lamp to anyone looking for this stle of reading lamp. It is sturdy, stale and the light emitted is 100% better than any incandescent light we have used and with lower energy require. I'd now give it 5 stars,but the system doesn't permit me to change

These lamps look very good, and they are wonderful for reading. I bought two for the living room and liked them so much I looked for two more for the sunroom. I am starting to appreciate how important good lighting is for reading. It makes a big difference!
