I have the lamp returned immediately upon receipt. Although the delivery was impeccable, so this product is not as described. If you want a dimmable lamp, of course it is a problem if this indeed as described, but will not be dimmed. If one does not care, so you can use the lamp. However, the clamp mechanism can not operate. This is not a design fault, but simply a far too strong spring that is built into the lamp. Only a very strong man can open these brackets. For all others it is not to use. One can imagine what this clip to the object on which it is mounted wreaks. Here, in my opinion is to just rock, as a windowsill or similar .. What would happen with a soft wood can be any, I think, even imagine.
