Tools and Hardware Reviews of Ariante Torchiere Designer Floor LampCustomer Review: should have been a "0" star Summary: 1 Stars
This lamp is complete trash- bought 1 of these & 1 of the Holmes lamps to see which one I liked better before I bought another of either as I needed 2 in one room. Unbelievable junk.
There is a plastic gold colored trim on white plastic shade that falls off, the shade is plastic so it will probably warp or melt in the heat of a 25 watt bulb because it didn't fit onto the top correctly or sit straight. Basically a fire hazard. I'm afraid my son might leave it on accidentally.
The only brass plated anything I see is the switch knob which was in the bottom of the box I had to stand on a couch & look down into the lamp with the light of the Holmes lamp to guide me to spend 10 minutes contorting my fingers to put the switch in the "hole" to screw it in on the "pin". It was slightly stripped which means it will probably break with normal use.
The actual poles are cheap & don't fit together very well, you can see where each metal piece meets as they are different sizes so one can fit inside the other. As others have stated, grab it from the base to move it or the whole thing falls apart.
In all, I'll be ordering another Holmes lamp & will let my Hubby have the electrical guts of this to make into another bowling pin lamp or more temp lighting for the garage. It's not worth what I paid to ship this back or the gas to drive it to the post office or UPS store.
Save your money... Burn a candle.
