My son was very happy to get this. He was still using the teddy bear lamp he had in his nursery. As he is now turning 7, we were "upgrading" to a little bit older looking stuff- we went with a space/ solar system theme. He likes this very much. It came quickly. It is a little smaller than we expected, but it looks really cool!

This review is a little premature. I inspected the light and turned it on but have not actually taken it home and *used* it in a reading situation. It's very pretty; construction is solid (metal and heavier than I imagined); light seems sufficient. Head adjusts up-and-down and also swivels. Paint a little chipped but not enough to send back. Switch is inline in the cord. Price reasonable. I like it. Image doesn't do color justice. (no assembly required)

Attractive and distinctive, yet inexpensive. Lightweight and easy move around to different locations but seems sturdy. Small footprint.
