I love this lamp! I looked at all of them, and this is the only one I liked. I registered for it, not thinking anyone would buy it for that price, but they did. I like it because it has a nightlight in the bottom, which incidentally makes the moon and stars light up on the walls and ceiling. I turn it on at night when I put my daughter to bed. It is not bright at all, but just enough light for me to see her when I check on her. The only bad thing is that to turn the nightlight off you have to turn the whole lamp on (twist past that setting). Since I leave it on all night, its not a problem though. It really is worth the money. It is very well made, not cheap looking at all.

We've had this nice, adorable lamp for eight months. Over the last two days, the main light bulb part would flicker when turning on or off the lamp (like the bulb would burn out). However, this morning the part that the bulb screws into was smoking and flickering orange and we quickly unpluged it. The baby's room was filled with electrical smoke and my husband and I were sick to our stomachs thinking what might have happened if we had walked in fifteen minutes later while our baby was still asleep in there! Do yourself a favor and don't buy this lamp. Why would you ever put your child in a dangerous situation.

Today I'll be going to Babies'R'Us to report this lamp, and also to Consumer Reports. Last night, I was feeding our baby in her nursery with the overhead light on, and the nightlight portion of this lamp on, like it always is. I noticed some flickering from the area of the main bulb. I thought the bulb was going to pop until I realized only the nightlight was on. That's when I noticed the awful smell and realized that the flickering was sparks of flame coming from inside the lamp!

Can you imagine what might have happened if I'd already put the baby to bed and gone upstairs? Or if this had happened while we were out of town for the weekend? My poor wife could hardly sleep last night and we brought the baby upstairs to sleep with us because her room smelled like an electrical fire.

This lamp can be as cute as it likes, and it is nice to look at, but it needs to be taken off the market right now. I'm not the only person who's had this experience, I see. If you must have this lamp because it sooooo cuuuute, then do yourself a favor and don't plug it in.

I chose this lamp for my son's moon and stars theme nursery. I looked at several similar themed lamps and liked this the best-it's very classy and reasonably priced. The shade and base has cutouts that glow when the light is on. You can also just have the night light in the base on. It's a beauty and so far durable.

I bought this lamp less than a year ago to replace my 3 yr. old's outlet night light. I liked the fact that it was a night light and could also be used as a lamp for softer lighting than the overhead ceiling fan lights. But, to my disappointment, the night light portion has "died" and now I am searching for a new lamp/night light. For the money, I had hoped it would last a least a couple of years!

The lamp is so cute. It's perfect for our nursery! The only thing I don't like are the images on the wall. It works but might look a bit scary to a child.

I've used this lamp for 4 months and last night it nearly caught fire. I only had the night light portion on and noticed a burning noise and a bad smell. Then it started to flicker and spark, we were able to turn it off and unplug it before anything worse happened. It wasn't my outlet as I had a humidifer also plugged in with no problems. Luckily, I happened to be in the room at the time.

This lamp is simply adorable and it is very well made for the money, this just really added that something extra to my childs room, I love the little bottom nightlight that is on this lamp perfect for those late night check ins !!! Some have said on their reviews that the design it makes on the wall may be scarry I don't see that at all. You will love this lamp

I registered for this lamp and recieved it as a gift for my baby shower. While I haven't had the baby yet and don't know what she'll think, I adore it! I love that it has a night light as well as the lamp light and you can use either or at a time. The only think I didn't like was the image it reflected on the wall, it kind of reminded me of a Jack O' Lantern. Anyhow I just moved it away from the wall and I can't see it anymore. I reccomend this lamp because it will be great for boy or girl and it can be used for years to come!!
