Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Floor Lamp with Reading Light and Glass/Steel Shades
Customer Review: could not assemble the bottom part
Summary: 4 Stars
I must have gotten a defective lamp, because I could not get the bottom piece to screw into the base. Both my husband and brother in law tried and it did not work.
I have to return it and get another one.Customer Review: Torchiere lamp
Summary: 3 Stars
The lamp is pretty cool looks wise. It has both a reading lamp and a full sized lamp which is always nice. For the price I think that it was pretty reasonable. I would suggest this lamp to anyone who is looking for something cheap, yet attractive in style and design.Customer Review: Pretty lamp, but cheap, irreplaceable shades make it a lemon
Summary: 2 Stars
I really loved the way this lamp looked and the light it gave off. The switch on the torchiere lamp is VERY stiff and tough to turn at times, but I could have lived with that. What I (and the lamp) could not live with was the thin, cheap glass from which the torchiere shade is constructed. My lamp is on carpet, and sits about 6" from the wall. Within a couple of months of having it, the shade sustained two huge cracks when it was bumped lightly against the wall. Since that time the shade bumped the wall lightly again, and the entire shade shattered. Not at all safe. I know the cost for this lamp isn't high, but I do wish the glass in the shade was just a bit thicker to prevent such an occurrence. I have another torchiere on the other side of the sofa that paid 2.5 times as much for, and that's served me well with no problems or breakage for 6 years & through one cross-country move. Perhaps in this case you really do get what you pay for. If anyone knows where I could get replacement shades that would FIT this lamp, please let me know. I looked, but it seems this shade is an odd size. :(Customer Review: pole broke early on
Summary: 2 Stars
Bought this at Target. Was OK at first. It screwed together easily. The thin shade on top and side were very bright, not really an uplight. But it soon fell apart in the middle of the pole. It seems where the pole screwed together, the threads weren't deep enough or didn't stick out far enough to keep them together. It wouldn't stay together right in the middle of the pole and was cocked at an angle. I had every intention of returning it but I knocked it with the chair and it the top half of the lamp came crashing down. I'm not going to buy another because I didn't like the light it gave off. And now I've read about fires in other reviews. yikes!Customer Review: Fire Hazard
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought 2 of these lamps in 2006 and last month it started on fire shortly after turning it on. I have 2 small children and my husband had to take the lamp outside to get the fire out. Do NOT buy this lamp or a similar style by the same company! I also cannot find any recalls on it. Will Amazon/Target refund my $? Doubt it. The flames began to shoot out of the top of the lamp, by the bulb. It seems to be an electrical problem as the light socket is fully burndt. Weird how it would work for almost 2 years and then cause a problem. I still have another one, and will not be using it. Does anyone know where I can get a refund for this defective item? I still have the burnt lamp I can send for proof! It seems to me by other replies, that there have been other fire problems with the same style lamp! Yes, it looks nice and it worked fine since 2006, but I would rather have a house to live in than a "nice" looking lamp . . . Watch out.
