Title: Nice looking and inexpensive but cheap
Product review: I bought these lamps for a rental house, so was attracted by their colonial look and low price. I wasn't looking for family heirlooms. They were time consuming to unpack, and the stem of one broke as I removed it from the packing, and there were minor chips in the bases of all 3. These couldn't have happened when I removed them from their styrofoam. They are inexpensively made, and the bases are soft and chip easily. As the rental house is on and island, and returning them would have required carting them back off the island-- I settled for 3 serviceable lamps. They look nice, and fit in with my colonial cottage. I don't expect them to survive more than a season or two of renters, but they will suffice for now. I think I will raise my price point for their replacements.
