Madness - last night ordered this morning ... DA! Faster than ever! For ever perfect score! The lamp itself: I was skeptical because in spite of many positive reviews but a few, very vehemment represented negative feedback should be read - but I must say: My concern was for nothing! To address some of these negative reviews: Yes, the interior of the carton was "loose" wrapped with tape, but that could have been also to save completely, because the packaging of Styrofoam and cardboard itself is so tight that I had difficulty who ever rauszukriegen lamp. So - all shipping safe and completely ok. To build: I admit, for people who do not belong to Ikeageneration may at first seem difficult - but I think anyone who has normal intelligence has the structure logically deducible and implemented without much consideration. Tool you need not - well, however, if one "two hands more" has (in my case, the neighbor) - then the structure is quite simple and takes less than half an hour. The lamp itself: it looks great! It is stable and has when plugged into the power outlet and works immediately .... and: Nooooo, I hear the transformer not / kaum- while I have good ears. The Dimmerfuktion is wonderful regulated and what I find particularly charming: the reading light shines through milky-transparent upper shell also upwards and are so comprehensive an illuminating light. All in all I am very satisfied and this lamp would always buy again immediately - and in which that price ever! Hope my article helps somehow, anyone and say "thumbs up" for the trio.
