While putting it together (which was very easy) more pieces of black flaked off, and nothing went together perfectly.
The best part, though? What the pictures DO NOT SHOW YOU.
The picture shows the lamp shade with a little pull string dangling down. They obviously used photo editing software to erase the giant silver wingnut which sticks out of that board, is EXTREMELY noticeable, and also had to be painted black.
And they also erase the cord, which comes straight down the middle of the top board, and comes with zip tiesyes, ZIP TIES (one of mine was broken) to hold the cord against the legs of the shelf. It's absolutely ridiculous looking. If the cord came down the side or even just off to one side, it wouldn't be that noticeable, but because it comes straight down the middle you have no choice but to just pull it to the side...it looks horrid. I will try to add a product picture.
I would expect this lamp to be $10-$15 at a store like Dollar General or Big Lots. It is DEFINITELY not a $50 lamp.
ETAI wrote this review before using the zip ties because I wanted to wait until my husband came home to attach them tightly. Both of the zip ties literally snapped in pieces when he tried to attach them. We had to buy zip ties to hold the cord in place.
Very disappointed.

liked the idea of a lamp with small shelves available to put decorative things or perhaps a cup/plate. It went together well. The color stain was applied nicely, no drips or such. It is a little light in stability but that is reflected in the reasonable price. A decorative piece put on the bottom shelf can help. It comes with 2 thin zip ties to adhere the electrical cord to the frame. This is because the cord runs from the top of the lamp down to the floor and then over to the outlet. Without the ties, the cord would be hanging loosely and wouldn't look so neat. I put a couple more of my own ties on it.Best Deals for Etagere Lamp
The 3 shelf floor lamp is well built and adds a beautiful touch to my living room. It was very easy to assemble with just a screwdriver (I am far from handy with tools!!) I would definitely recommend this product to others...Honest reviews on Etagere Lamp
Its a good looking lamp. Not as bright as I would have expected it to be though.However, while building it, you will realize that the lamp is not top quality. You basically get what you pay for. The wood its made of is not of the highest quality. And the Shelves on the lamp are only good for lighter stuff.
All in all, I think its worth the money. But if you think you are getting a bargain here, then you have another thing coming your way.
