Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Uplight Lamp with Crackle Glass Shade
Customer Review: I cannot believe the price!
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this lamp based on the reviews I read, and also because it is the coolest looking lamp, and just what I was looking for. I received it a couple of weeks ago, and I LOVE it!!! The 3 levels of light are perfect! I'm using it in the bedroom, and how I wish that this lamp was made with the same design, but in different sizes. I would get one for EVERY room!Customer Review: I love my touch lamp - FINALLY
Summary: 2 Stars
I finally love my lamp after one return and a little tinkering. I read ALL of the reviews on this one, seeing the range of 5 stars to 1 star and couldn't quite figure it out. Some were unequivocal praises; others were equally emphatic in their disappointment. I figured: It must be a Quality Assurance issue - with about 10% or so defective product. So I played the odds and ordered one. SIGH - I ended up with virtually ALL of the problems described:
The shade came cracked. It wasn't exceedingly Obvious, so I tried it out.
Bzzt. It fried the first light bulb, and apparently the touch circuit. Amazon was GREAT at taking the return and sending me a replacement (5 stars for Amazon's service!).
The new one arrived; no cracked glass shade, but no touch feature! Just the on-the-cord switch.
Rather than admit defeat, I assumed that the touch circuit was defective. Rather than deal with Yet Another Return, I decided to order a new touch circuit: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BQWVE6 from Amazon.
When i opened up the bottom of the lamp: no touch circuit to replace at all!
Oh well ... the Touch Lamp Kit came with detailed instructions and parts. The only thing I would suggest is having along with you some way of identifying which power cord wire goes to which power cord "blade" - the wide and narrow polarity blades on the end of the mains power cord; just a simple continuity tester. I don't KNOW that it makes a difference, but the instructions have you make one connexion to the "live" wire (the narrow blade) and another connexion to the "neutral" wire (the wide blade). I did that. Voilà!
Now i love my touch lamp!
Customer Review: I love this lamp
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this lamp because I am redecorating my bedroom and wanted something new and cool. It's fabulous because it looks sleek and sophisticated and it is a great price! I love how it turns on and off without any switches - you just touch the base, which has a gorgeous silver sheen. This is a great lamp that made a modern addition to my frumpy old room.Customer Review: It is not touch lamp!
Summary: 2 Stars
This lamp looks awesome but it is not touch one. This is the main reason why I ordered it and now I was deceived by product description. (later on I saw other similar reviews that is not touch)
I gave it 2 stars only because it looks nice and modern. Another con is that if it stays on a night stand, which is lower and you pass by the light, will shot straight in your eyes (with a 60W light bulb is not fun).
Just asked for refund so I will order a real touch lamp.
Customer Review: Just what I wanted...
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased two of these lamps, for bedside tables. They arrived quickly, well boxed and in perfect condition. Although this model is a bit larger than one I had bought from a local store for our daughter, they suit our needs. The touch sensor with three levels of light is great, especailly when you are half asleep and need to turn off the reading light. Great for mood lighting or reading.
