Milan Floor Lamp

I shall be returning this item. It has a good heavy base and is reasonably well-made, with one exception - the lampshade is rather large and heavy. The screw controlling the angle of the lamp head did not work effectively and the lamp head would creep downwards. Maybe I have been unlucky with this particular lamp, but the screw fitting controlling the angle of the lamp head looks flimsy.It's a good price for this type of lamp - if there was no problem with it. Fortunately I checked it out before taking the plastic off the plug - and, even more fortunately, I photographed the packaging as I removed the lamp. The packaging is quite complex and without my photos I could never have got it safely back in!

The lamp was chosen as it is the right height for the space I have put it in. It can be adjusted, it has a very long lead and a floor button which makes it easy to switch on with your foot. It is black with a small trim of antique gold, so is compatible with most decor. The base is quite heavy so unlikely to be accidentally knocked over. It was easy to assemble but there is no bulb supplied with it. Pleased with it so far.
