Adesso Table Lamp, Brushed Steel & Off-White, Pull Chain, 26”

I loved it, it was easy to put together and looked great. But my cats tore it apart. Cat owners be forwarned!

This lamp is very high quality and sturdy. The wood is finished well and the shade is beige tinted which casts a very calming light. The shade is, of course, thin paper so it is obviously very delicate but that is to be expected with this style of lamp as it wouldn’t have the same appearance otherwise. It arrived in perfect condition and the components are obviously very high quality. The metal post is heavy duty as is the wooden base and the pull string feels dependable. Based on the craftsmanship I expect for this lamp to last a very, very long time. It should be noted that the shade collapses when disassembled for safe and easy transport if, for instance, you move a lot as I do. I plugged this into a dimmer chord and I am loving the ambiance of this lamp.

I purchased this lamp to replace an old Ikea Orgel lamp that I had been using for ambient lighting on my desk. The Ikea lamp was cheap and held up great for years and I wanted to finally buy a matching pair. Unfortunately, as with most Ikea products the lamp was discontinued and replaced with a more inferior version. The new version has an in-line switch which is inconvenient and inefficient when the cord is behind a table/desk and not within reach and is also all around smaller and lighter. I found this lamp and the look is so similar that I decided to buy it as a replacement. PROS: -The lamp is well made and the base is nice and weighty, not as heavy as a metal base but sturdy enough. -The paper shade is strong and stiff, large, and has a excellent height for such a tall lamp. It has a pull switch which is convenient and allows you to hide the wire completely behind a table. -It's very easy to assemble and comes with instructions though really none is necessary. -The pole is a thick strong steel (?) piece. -The shade had no underlying odor, which I sometimes find to be a problem with paper shades. CONS: -With tax, this lamp comes to about $40 some odd dollars. Not very expensive but if you're not set on a paper shade look then you can find better priced and better built alternatives. -The wooden ball at the end of the chain and the wooden base are two completely different finishes. -Finally, the most disappointing thing: the wooden base is completely unfinished. I expected it to at least be treated or have some kind of poly but it's like they just put a piece of unfinished wood from Micheal's and called it a day. It looks nice don't get me wrong but I accidentally spilled ice tea while cleaning up my desk and the base soaked up the liquid both from the top and bottom. I now have a large dark tea stain on the base. I'll be stopping by Homedepot to get some dark walnut stain to cover it up and some poly to seal it but just thought it's important to be aware before you order that you might have to do extra work to give the lamp a more finished look.

Other reviewers rated this lamp highly but I still had some reservations because of the price and I thought the shade might be too flimsy. Wrong! This lamp is beautiful. It was very easy to put together. The shade is of a durable beige, parchment-like paper which has horizontal striations and makes a lovely diffuse light. Actually, it's more like bright a glow than a light - gorgeous. The base is well-proportioned in relation to the lamp. I have cats so I just looped the pull chain to keep it out of playful paws. Now it's the perfect lamp.

Amazing. I connected it to Alexa. My gf loves it when I say Alexa turn on the den light. It comes on 60%. And is beautiful with a movie.

i wasn’t expecting this lamp to be a little difficult to assemble but it’s worth it if u have the patience :) the instructions don’t really guide u how to hook it on right, as i was attempting a couple times. btw the hooks should be facing on top where the two little points are. i truly love the texture of the lamp shade, feels like crinkly paper so be careful stretching it out when placing it on the lamp as it could possibly rip! to me it feels light like paper but yet durable enough :) this one lamp sits on my desk and really brightness my whole bedroom with a warm cozy light. truly like the functionality & size

I actually liked this floor lamp. I wanted to get two Magnarps from IKEA, but they are not available in the US anymore (still being sold in UK). These Adesso lamps where the closest I could find to the Magnarp in the same price range. The aren't super polished, but they still look fine and do a good job overall. That being said, packaging is the WORST i've seen. Like ever. Putting the lamp together is not complicated, but getting the lamp out of the packaging is a pain. The packaging creates a monumental amount of waste (a mess of cardboard and polystyrene, covered up in plastic tape all over) . A complete shame from the packaging side. I didn't have the shade length problems other have mentioned, but I did have a different problem - the center column, which holds both the bulbs and the shade, ends up in a screw on cap on the top. This cap secures the shade in place. In my case, the cap was fused together with the column. In all likelihood, the cap was assembled while the paint was still fresh, making it impossible to loosen it up without damaging the pieces. I contacted Amazon, and they gave me just two options: Exchange or return (no need to repackage, thankfully). I'd prefer to simple get the two pieces with problems (end section of the center column and the cap). What a shame - it's a waste no matter how you look at it.

I feel like for the price point what you get is a pretty good deal. To me it looks nicer than how much it costs. I bought this to replace an Adesso Arch Floor Lamp that I had previously because it didn’t come with a diffuser disk to go under the shade so the light from the bulb was too heavy, direct, and created unappealing shadows. This one took care of all those issues. I had read in another review that the paper shade part was difficult to stretch out without risk of tearing, but I am happy to report this is not the case. The bottom catch mechanism has an adjustable positioning so it has quite a bit of give in terms of how much you actually have to stretch the shade. The ONLY downside is yes the base is relatively unfinished. Now mind you it’s not AS unfinished as some of the reviews here led me to believe it would be, however, I will still be staining it and sealing it just to get the longevity out of it. Overall great purchase and completely satisfied. Would recommend.

Nice size for end tables.

Pour une pièce

Very nice unit. Easy to set up. Nice warm light from shade.

Nice, but not great quality for the price. But, I like the look, I have one from Ikea, it was 1/3 rd of the price, and better quality. Unfortunately, they discontinued the product, so I payed more for this one just for the look.

For us it worked out well as most of it is hidden, standing in a corner. The material is wood fiber and had to be pressed together for shipping and of course opening up left some wrinkles, would not use it as free standing, Otherwise it looks good .
