Review title: Threaded top strips and breaks - soft metal - avoid it!
Product review: This is a very nice looking, very nicely weighted item. The design is an A+. But the materials make it an F. The problem is that the pear-shaped bulb on the top, and the tube that the bulb screws into, are made of a very soft metal. The threads (both the male and female threads) rapidly strip out, leaving the bulb loose in its socket. This is quite bad because the bulb is heavy - about half a pound - and will crack your countertop, hurt your foot, or put a big dent in your oak floor (this last, in my case) when it wobbles off. You can try to postpone this problem by wrapping the threads in tape but the softness of the metal makes failure inevitable. It's a discard. Umbra, if you improve the metal, you could solve the problem.
