Espresso Lamp
March 22, 2013
I love the lamp, but the cord is an eye sore. it comes form the middle of the lamp and is visible in my living area. For the money I would think this could have been addressed.

GLASS LAMP
February 20, 2013
I loved the lamp-thought it was good quality. But the 2nd time I went to turn it on-the on/off switch was broken.
This was the 3rd lamp I purchased from Pottery Barn and one of the other lamps have a loose on/off switch.
Customer service took good care of the return--but I suggested instead of returning the whole lamp I just return the top part as it detatches. New one came fast-but I discovered the cork top was not an exact size match. I had to cut down the cork to fit in the lamp. Would be hesitant to order another lamp.

Great Lamp!
February 19, 2013
I love this lamp. I was a little worried because it's a very dark brown color and i have it in a corner in my living room, but when it's on at night the color is amazing. And, it looks great with a burlap lampshade.

Exposed cord problem solved
February 18, 2013
Like many of you, I didn't realize until we unpacked them that the cords are on outside of lamp. Fear not, there is a solution for less than $12. I just completed this project and the lamps are just as beautiful as in my minds eye when I purchased them. Requires a motorized hand drill, masking tape, electrical tape, a glass/ceramic drill bit from local hardware store and patience. I recommend a 1/2 inch drill bit
Locate desired cord exit point of lamp. Mine was near the base. Mask off area around area and slowly drill. Let the drill bit do the work. Don't force it. Allow 10 to 15 min to drill hole. Once complete, snip cord wire about 12 inches from plug. Strip wire and separate exposing silver wires. Twist together. You're ready to run the cord into the lamp and put the cork top/lamp kit on. Run the cord out of the lamp and reattach to the other snipped end of the cord. Use electric tape to secure. Hide wires under couch or whatever works. Turn on and enjoy

Ugly Lamp
January 24, 2013
I purchased this lamp thinking it was going to be as pretty as in the catalog, even online. Unfortunately, it is NOTHING like it's pictures. Instead of being pretty transparent multifaceted color of espresso that looks like it glows in the picture, it is really a solid color blah, almost mud color. You can't see into the glass at all. Just really an ugly lamp to be honest. It's the first thing I've ever returned to Pottery Barn. I really didn't even want to give it 1 star.

great lamp
January 24, 2013
the thing that we were disappointed about is the exposed cord.
it was never mentioned in the product information. i bought a cord cover, but still has an odd look.

LOVE!
January 23, 2013
I loved these lamps the moment they came out on-line. However, I waited until they went on sale AND free shipping! They are a perfect addition to our living room--very modern, classy, and my boys (and husband) don't think they look too "girly."

Table Lamp - Espresso
January 17, 2013
I was very excited to get these lamps for my family room. I just opened the box and put one of the lamps together and found that the cord comes out of the top where the light bulb is. It is very odd and not attactive to be displayed on an end table. I am going to have to return both lamps...I wish I would have read the two reviews posted by other customers before purchasing these lamps. The color and shape of the lamp is nice, but I just can't get past the placement of the cord.

esspresso lamp
September 3, 2012
I like the lamp - the color is lovely, however the cord is not at the bottom of the base where one would expect it to be , but rather comes out of the top of the base, near the lightbulb. What's up with that? The lamp fits beautifully with my decor, but as a result of the odd placement of the cord, I can not use it on a table, it is placed in a bookcase where the cord is not visable. Does any one else have an issue with this design?

Disappointed in the Clift Glass Lamp
August 30, 2012
I loved the look of this lamp. Unfortunately, I did not see the cord that hangs from the light bulb all the way down the back of the lamp. It made it very unattractive in my living room.
