Discount Adesso 5120-22 Metropolis Floor Lamp, Chrome

Customer Ratings:

I am very disappointed with the lamp. It looks great on the picture but it's not as classy. In fact the materials are second rate and once assembled it looks "cheaper" than in the picture and description. For example, nowhere in the description does it say it has pained plastic parts but the part that right above the 3 discs an below the shade is painted plastic and it shows; looks quite tacky. Also the underside of the 3 chrome discs are not properly finished and have these black spots can be seen when standing next to it.

Also beware the bulbs show above the shade.

I wish I could return it -I don't have the original packaging any longer...

My husband and I live in a low level Manhattan apartment with very little natural light. We have no overhead lighting so we needed floor lamps that would brightly light our rooms, yet still look attractive enough so as not to detract from how we decorated our rooms. We chose the Adesso Metropolis floor lamp because it uses two bright 150 watt bulbs and we like the sleek design. The lamp is very attractive with a metallic looking stem and a glass half globe. We put one of them in two corners of each room and the lamps light the room very well. We also like that the lamp has two settings and we often use the lower setting in the evening when we are relaxing and do not want such bright light.

The lamp were packaged well and no parts were damaged in any of the lamps that we ordered. The assembly of the lamp is very easy and took my husband only about 7 minutes. We have had no problems with the quality of the lamps and we have six of them, which we have used for the past year. We highly recommend the Adesso Metropolis floor lamp!

I needed a new lamp for the office and wanted something with a bit of style for little bucks...was nervous with the couple of extremely negative reviews, but went ahead as I like the look. Glad I did it was a cinch to put together, has a nice deco look to it and the glass shade allows light to go down as well as up, which is what I was hoping. The switch has low/hi settings so I'm guessing this wouldn't work with non-dimmable CFLs unless you just used the high setting.

As for the negative reviews sounds like the first two reviewers just got duds that were somehow damaged, which is a shame. No problems here. And 'painted plastic parts'? WTF? I think this reviewer had the wrong product there is nothing plastic on this lamp that I can find. It's all metal/chrome and glass. (Ok I'm editing this because it just occurred to me that they might have been referring to the black lamp, and since I haven't seen that one I can't comment. The chrome one has no painted parts)

Oh yes, the Styrofoam packaging did get all over the place while opening. What an incredible, horrible, terrible hassle! Now I will have to vacuum! Or should I just return it? LOL

Best $90 I ever spent (well, my boss ever spent) on a lamp.
