I have been watching this floor lamp for a long time. When I saw it on sale + free shipping I pulled the trigger. 2 main complaints are 1, the shades are not white & 2, big ugly dark electrical cords. Otherwise the lamp is beautifully made, well packed, little assembly required.

The quality of the lamp and base are phenomenal. The paper shade even comes with a circular disc that goes on the top of the lamp, which is great because you can't see the bulbs from obove, and it casts a really nice glow on the ceiling. Love this piece.
