This is a cheap product in more than one way. Lights up a room just great and looks fine as long as you don't inspect it. If you're looking for a cheap lamp to get the job done and not look like complete crap, this is the product for you. Completely satisfied.

I was impressed with the heft of this lamp for the price. It's sturdy and, other than the thin, cheaply constructed plastic shade, is a great lamp for the price. The first one I received was defective because the locking cap wouldn't screw on to attach the shade, no matter what I tried. I wasn't sure if the fault was with the locking cap, the area it attched to or if it had something to do with the shoddy shade. But it was frustrating, to say the least. That same day I called onlinecomponents and they were wonderful! The sent me a replacement lamp within 10 days and did not require the non-functioning one be returned...saving me more shipping fees. I'd have gladly paid a bit more for a better quality, perhaps glass, shade though. But if you're looking for an inexpensive floor lamp, with 3-way lighting capabilities, this is a good deal.

I bought five or six of these when they were priced at around $5-6 and they were well worth every penny. We recently purchased a home that was built in the 1980's and the lighting is not great. These torchieres will do a lovely job of tiding us over until we can afford to install the lighting we want. They ARE cheaply made, but they hide that fact fairly well. We have one in our formal living room and it fits in rather nicely. Let's be honest... if you do it right, a corner lamp shouldn't be your visitors' main focus anyway. Right? These lamps make for great supplemental lighting. They'd also be great for a dorm room, office, waiting room, first apartment (gift?)...
I'm not the least bit displeased with my purchase.

This might rank as my all time best purchase online. Very nice lamp, looks like it should cost $30 to $40. Arrived fast, in good condition and looks great.

Very happy customer.

Thank you for such a great price on this lamp! I was hesitant to buy it, thinking it might be a piece of junk for being so low priced, but I'm glad I gave you guys a chance! Thank you!
