Bronze Finish Plug-in Swing Arm Lamp

Rating

My husband had two of these up within an hour and he's not an electrician. Initially when I took them out of the carton I was dismayed by the amount of black tone on the bronze finish but this color was not apparent once the lamps were mounted. Nice and sturdy lamp with a beautiful shade that is exactly as shown in the picture.

They were not particularly easy to install and one of the anchor brackets was missing resulting in the light moving slightly when being turned off. Having said that they do look very nice and have made an enormous difference to our room.Thank you Overstock.

These beautiful swing arm lamps were just what I needed in our bedroom. Our previous pair that we bought over 25 years ago finally died. These are lovely, well made and the shades are great and, unlike a lot of less expensive lighting, do not need to be replaced to look nice. The only caveat is that you must know how to attach the plug to the wire... not hard, but if you've never done that sort of thing, you need to figure that out or sweet talk someone into doing it for you....

It's a very pretty lamp, but I have no idea how it looks on the wall because it came to me with the plug not attached. I have to wait until an electrician does some other work on my house to have him put the plug on. If you're not handy (I'm not) don't get this lamp.

If you can get the darn thing on your wall it is great. Looking at the instructions makes this installation much harder than if you lay out the pieces and just figure it out - they make no sense and will really confuse you. If you want it installed really well you will need to go out and get a few nuts to secure the screws that hold the lamp to the plate. I was to lazy, but I know I will have to fix it as I use the swing arm because the outer plate will eventually part from the wall mounted plate. The swing arm is very stiff, but I caould probably oil it.Here is what I did: 1. feed smaller (non wood) screw through the mounting plate just enough that they will not touch the wall when the plate is screwed into the wall. 2. Mounted the plate to the wall - I just used my own sheet rock screws with the mounting pieces for sheet rock(drill and insert into wall). Put the lamp onto the screws and put the nuts on. Wire fed tubes(was not easy) and get the plug on (can't help you with the plug as I don't have that part right). Good luck.
