After Harry, my klutzy cat, knocked over my very old but serviceable gooseneck floor lamp and broke it,I searched quite awhile for a suitable replacement.

I needed a reliable, adjustable, relatively unobtrusive reading lamp that would take one of those twisty flourescent bulbs (because they produce much less heat).

So far, I like this lamp. It's well-constructed, attractive, and provides direct focused light for reading. The shade is kind of small (about 7 by 4 inches)but that's adequate for my needs.

The base is quite heavy enough to provide good stability. No assembly, other than screwing the base on, is required. It is well-packaged,to prevent damage in shipping.

Note that there are three different finishes available for this product,

although I believe Amazon does not specifically indicate this. I ordered the brass version, not the "bronze" finish Amazon's site pictured. Check "House of Troy" to see all finishes.

This lamp is well made with a good weight. Sometimes the less expensive ones can be tippy. The finish is nice and the multi positioning shade makes it great for reading...the purpose I bought it for.

I use this lamp in the morning above my makeup desk to apply makeup with decent light. Very attractive also

Update: Would not recommend---the knob to turn the light on and off doesn't work well at all so I had to buy a floor surge protector that I can turn on and off down there to operate the lamp----horrible quality

Honest reviews on House of Troy CH825-AS Coach Collection 52-1/2-Inch Adjustable

This House of Troy lamp arrived rapidly, and that is all the good I can say about it. The long upright lamp support wobbles in the base, and the adjustable-height bar that raises and lowers the reading lamp cannot be secured in one position. It slides down, under its own weight.

This isn't even worth the one star it gets, and I am returning it within the next two days. I wouldn't keep it if I'd paid only 40.00 for it.
