Rome 230W & 33W Polished Chrome & Opal Glass Mother & Child Task Floor Light & Uplighter

This is my second of these lamps. The first was so good I just had to have another for my bedroom. Both lamps give an incredible amount of light. Using the uplighter gives enough light for a reasonably large living room, I never use my ceiling lights any more! The reading lamp alone is plenty when reading or just needing light in a small area while watching tv. Both lamps are so bright that I rarely need to use either on full power, thank goodness for the dimmer switches! The lamp is well constructed, solid, heavy and looks great! Although sold as an uplighter with a reading lamp, both lamps have glass shades so actually give light in both directions. It is a little fiddly to assemble so be prepared to shout and swear! However this is because of very small screws which are virtually invisible once assembled, which adds to the attractive appearances of the lamp. On this occasion I had a small problem where the dust cover for the main bulb was broken on arrival, although I think this was due to mishandling by the courier. However, I sent an email to the seller and received fantastic customer service! A reply within a couple of hours asking for more details of the damaged part and then a replacement sent immediately the same day. Could not fault the seller in the least! Cannot recommend the lamp or the seller highly enough! (And no I'm not on commission for this review! 😂) just a very satisfied customer!

I have offset ceiling lights and found it difficult to light the area where the lamp now is. I had one of these already in a different part of the room and loved the amount of light it gives so I purchased this one. I love it. I found it tricky assembling at the bit where you attach the light itself to the base, it is much easier with two people. This part took the longest as the base plate does slip when you try to site the stems into the holes. I ended up having to put the base on my sofa resting the light end on the floor and did battle with it a bit.That aside the lamp is great, its a great colour, so practical using the dimmer as they are in the middle of the stem and really accessible. the light it gives off is great and I like the little reading lamp part as it moves and angles really well. It was a really good price compared to what I paid in the shops for my first one.The product arrived well within the time frame. I would buy this product whenever you have a limited space to house the lamp and need to vary the amount of light as it ranges from ambient low to really bright - you choose the level.Highly recommend it.

To better control the light level in my living room, I wanted a new dimmer light. I went for the "antique" model, hoping it would go with the other antique brass fittings in the room. Luckily, it is as close to antique brass as I can tell. The unit is very stable, with a heavy rubber foot holding it at the base. The design is very aesthetic, with everything screwing together at the edges; the only unnecessary seam I can see is on the controller unit (mounted half way up), which is in two pieces screwed together. The only two visible screws are on the back of the controller unit. There are separate controls for the level of the main light and dimmer light. Both lights have a frosted glass window on the reverse side to allow diffused light. The upright poles do seem to twist easily. The main light has a 220-240V 118mm halogen light (energy category C) which offers 230w (4650lm) for 1000 hours according to the box the bulb comes in. Even though the listing didn't mention it, the unit is self-assembly as you would expect at this price. It was delivered in a box with the main components assembled and cabled (controller unit fitted on and one of the bulbs installed). The mains cable, which you can't see in the listing picture, runs right through the cable and out of the base, and must be pulled through various tubing to close it up. Assembly requires the Alan key and spanner provided. Instructions are slightly tricky; the nuts and washers hold the unit together right at the base, under the rubber foot and metal cover while the picture shows only one layer; I thought they had assembled it wrongly and ended up taking off the plug, which broke and had to be replaced (luckily I had a spare plug; NB you need to transfer the fuse as it uses a non-standard 3A fuse). The instructions talked of a worm gear to hold the cable to the base, but there was no such tapped hole. This is a good product for the price and it definitely does what it is supposed to.

Great item, and very helpful proactive responses from the seller. Happy to recommend

The assembly Instructions were woefully inadequate. The lamp arrived without bulbs, but to add to the fun, the assembly was slightly harder than trying to poke butter up an angry porcupine's bottom with a hot needle. The tolerances on the holes in the base were so tight, that the threaded portion of the supporting rods had to be rotated to get it through the hole, which of course, unscrewed the other end of the rods from their housing in the central portion. In the end, I had to use a file to open up the holes on the base enough to get the wretched thing together. The fitting which connects the supporting rod to the top light, helpfully had a hole, and a little threaded rod to insert it. Unfortunately, there was no corresponding thread on the light fitting bracket, so it was impossible to attach it. I gave up and used a rivet. The dimmer control switch knobs fall off if you breathe on them, so I had to glue them. If I didn't have a pressing need for the light, I would have sent it back.

J'ai commandé 2 produits à l'identique, l'un lors du déballage un verre de protection de lampe mal fixé comparativement au second, bilan: 1/ cassé sur mon carrelage.(logé dans un plastique d'emballage. 2/ Aucune fourniture de lampe contrairement au descriptif du produit. sur les 2 produits commandés En résumé: Produit de qualité, mais dommage pour le contrôle avant expédition.

La spedizione e' arrivata nei tempi previsti senza inconvenienti. Ho pero' avuto bisogno dell'aiuto di mio marito per montarla in quanto le istruzioni non erano così' chiare ed intuitive. Ci sarebbe spazio per migliorare. Altro inconveniente, le istruzioni per il montaggio non sono in italiano e per chi non conosce una delle lingue incluse nel volantino(inglese, francese, etc) potrebbe essere un problema. Ho inoltre avuto l'impressione che il cappello della lampada fosse più piccolo rispetto all'idea che mi ero fatta guardando la foto sul web. A parte questo la lampada e' molto funzionale, utili i due interruttori separati che dosano l'intensità' della luce. A proposito entrambe le lampadine sono incluse. Non lo avevo capito nella descrizione sul web.

Habe ich das übersehen? Muss ich da tatsächlich auch noch akribisch nachsehen, ob der Stecker in Europa kompatibel ist? Zum totärgern, der Stecker ist aus UK, passt nicht in eine deutsche Steckdose. Muss also noch einen Adapter kaufen, hätte ich sofort mitbestellt, wenn ich es gewusst hätte. Wie die Leuchtmittel, die nicht mitgeliefert werden, das zumindest stand in den Produktdetails. Bedienungsanleitung ist nur auf Englisch. 1 Seite mit Zeichnung, da soll ein Dimmer eingebaut werden, ist aber kein entsprechendes Teil in der Verpackung. Preis ist ok, wenn die Lampe funktioniert.

Contrairement à ce qui est indiqué sur Amazon, les ampoules ne sont pas fournies avec le luminaire. Par ailleurs le luminaire n'est compatible qu'avec des ampoules halogène. Or il se trouve que les ampoules halogène requises sont interdites à la vente. Ce luminaire est donc une escroquerie.

ОК!
