I recently received the lamp post and it is very nice.....but before I purchased it, I did chat to someone on line regarding if it needed to be hotwired or if it could just be pluged in....they told me that it could be pluged into an outlet.....which is what I wanted.....well it needs to be hotwired and it didn't state that anywhere on the information and was given the wrong information when I contacted someone via internet.....it is a nice lamp and I will keep it but now there is an additional cost to have an electrician come out to install it........not happy about that.

I love the way these lamposts look. They are pretty stunning. I was told though that a couple of the screws were stripped when my electrician was trying to put it together. We were able to find replacement screws easily enough. I still would recommend this...the glass is gorgeous and has a nice effect when it's lit.
