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.
