Great LED dimmable floor lamp, BUT lousy (really AWFUL) website
By VK on Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2015
This review is for the Lavish Home 72-1515 LED Sunlight Floor Lamp with Dimmer Switch, 5-Feet. Here's a short description of it: This is a 5 Foot Adjustable Neck floor Lamp 17 Watt LED (built in), Natural daylight (cooler than warm white), 1400 lumens, should last 15,000 hours Touch Power Button, 4 Brightness Settings (up to the max 1400 lumens) Input: 100-240V, 50/600 Hz 0.35A Max; 2 Prong AC Adapter Output: 13.2V, Dimensions: Base: 8.75 x 10.25", Height: Approximately 50", Cord Length: 67". This lamp was delivered last week, was easy to assemble, and worked perfectly with no problems. The reason I included the specifications of the LED floor lamp is that there is widespread confusion about the lamp because of the lousy website description. I don't know if it's Amazon's fault or the vendor's fault, but someone must fix the website for this item 72-1515 (ASIN B00PB94PCO). FIRST, they must delete the following statement from the 72-1515 Product Description, "The linear fluorescent bulb provides bright, natural light perfect for working, reading and more." This statement is FALSE. The lamp 72-1515 does NOT have a fluorescent bulb; it is an LED lamp! SECOND, this lamp 72-1515 was first available, according to the website, on November 6, 2014. BUT the website included more than a thousand reviews BEFORE November 2014, reviewing obviously a different floor lamp. Just about all of the "Most Helpful" reviews were dated before November 2014 and DO NOT apply to the LED floor lamp. Of the almost 2 thousand reviews, only about 60 are on the LED floor lamp. THIRD, the fundamental reason why there is so much confusion is that the same website is used for the LED lamp as well as the fluorescent lamp. Once you select a color other than Dimmer Black, you are getting a fluorescent lamp. To get the LED lamp, you have to select the color Dimmer Black, even though the product description talks of a fluorescent bulb. Confused? So was I. I just took a chance in ordering it, and if it didn't come out LED, I was going to return it citing a misleading web description. But I'm glad I ordered Dimmer Black and got what I wanted, the LED floor lamp. Still confused??? Bend the ears of Amazon, maybe someone would straighten this website out. SUMMARY: 5 stars for the LED floor lamp, and NEGATIVE STARS FOR THE AWFUL WEBSITE!!! AMAZON, ARE YOU LISTENING?

Assembly Impossible - Had To Return It
By Jennifer on Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2012
Four problems occurred with this lamp and I had to return it to Amazon for a refund. 1.) The stem of the lamp is typical of similar tall lamps. There are several sections that are threaded and screw into each other. The electrical cord passes through the middle of each section and thence to the head of the lamp (and the bulb). After assembling the first two sections it became apparent that the electrical cord was distinctly longer than the height of the lamp. I looked for a way to feed excess cord into the base or into the lamp head, but this was not possible. The bulb comes in its own box in the formed Styrofoam tray. Instructions for bulb installation are written and pictured on both sides of this box. 2.) The metal clamps meant to gently hold the glass portion of the bulb in place were spaced much wider than what was pictured and had to be bent closer together to actually make contact with the bulb to hold it in place. This was not a major problem, just an annoyance and strange. 3.) The base of the bulb slots into the receptacle and according to the instructions will snap into place. The base of the bulb appears to match the receptacle, but all attempts to push it far enough into the receptacle to snap into place were unsuccessful. I had several people look at the receptacle and the bulb and try to seat the bulb. No success. Careful measurement and examination seemed to show that the dimensions of either the bulb or the receptacle were apparently slightly different from each other. 4.) When disassembling the lamp to return it, the metal screw base detached from the formed plastic portion of the base. The same force to unscrew the section was used as to screw them together. At this point I had a cord that was too long and would not fit inside the stem of lamp (so it was not possible to fully assemble the lamp), a specially made bulb that would not fit into the lamp receptacle, and a base that had detached when being unscrewed. Overall, this product appears to have been the victim of poor quality control during manufacture.
