What a pity .... actually the lamp is otherwise quite good for the price. It is positive that the foot is comparatively stable, as equipped with a metal pin and not only with cheap plastic, which breaks off after a few weeks, as in my last Lampe.Aber the lamp has the same quirk, as well as the very first I had , the arm not remains up in the postion you could wish for and has set, but works in an easy way down - and since the first day !!!!!! Even if the finger breaks around the thumbscrew to tighten - it just does not stop! I wonder why the manufacturer is not willing or able to resolve this issue in principle - is in other lamps but also .... Otherwise it would indeed be a really good value for money - it's so not. Therefore, I will unfortunately not buy this lamp again and would not recommend. The lamp makes a very bluish light - very ungemütlich- I equal exchanged warm white - so, we go.
