I have two of these lamps...and they are great! I've never had any problems with them...going on two years.
THEY DO ACCEPT COMPACT FLUORESCENT LAMPS!! Buy the Philips brand ones (nice shape & color). They definitely fit b/c I have them in both lamps.

I purchased the same lamp at a lighting store for almost $100 after it was discounted as a floor model. Great lamp, but I should have ordered it from Target.

I purchased this lamp for a large (dim) bedroom and it lit the entire room; the separate reading lamp is terrific too.
Very important- the lamp is WELL MADE. When assembling some torchieres, the cheap ones have threads that don't twist-on correctly & won't stand properly. Assembly was a breeze and everything fit together beautifully.
The chrome is nice, heavy, solid & the shade is frosted glass, not plastic- this lamp looks more expensive than it is, I plan on buying a second one for the parlor. This is a great product for a great price, thanks again, Target!

My lamp caught fire today as I switched on the top section.

It has always grated a little when switching on and off and there was obviously a problem

be warned

I bought this lamp on sale to match the brushed nickel hardware on a new bedroom set. It was extremely easy to assemble and it has a very sturdy base. I love that I can just use the reading lamp without having the other light on. It is very stylish and provides ample lighting.

I recently purchased this lamp for my daughter's room. Looks great, was easy to assemble and operate. Those reviewers that had problems, you purchased a lemon and should have returned it for a new one. I am very happy with this purchase. Would have bought 2 more for my living room if the metal was bronze, or matte black.

This fit the bill for me, a modern design, inexpensive, but provides very bright light that floods light up and provides a reading light down. The downlight is positionable. I have switched the downlight to a florescent and plan to do the same with the uplight when it needs to be replaced. Read the instructions on maximum bulb wattage to avoid any issues, usually printed on the lamp itself on/near the bulb screw in base. I've had this for two years and nary a problem. When I travel I use a timer to switch it on and off automatically. I particularly like the fact that it is heavy and stable, I have a three year old granddaughter. For the price it's extraordinary.

I must have gotten a defective lamp, because I could not get the bottom piece to screw into the base. Both my husband and brother in law tried and it did not work.

I have to return it and get another one.

I wish I could give this lamp zero stars. IT ALMOST KILED MY CHILDREN AND I!!!

I bought this lamp less than a year ago from Target. I liked the style but had far too many problems to out way the lamps great look.

-The lamp never brightened up my very small room.

-The reading lamp at the bottom never stayed in place no matter how much I tightened the screw. It went in what ever direction it decided to. Also the silver part at the bottom became very hot and the lamp could not be adjusted while it was on because it burned your hand.

-The larger lamp at the top also constantly fell over. Both the top and bottom lamps have a spring like coil that does not allow the lamp to stay in place. I eventually left the top lamp to fall over like a spot light shining on the floor because I was tired of readjusting the frosted dish so that the bulb faced the ceiling.

-Finally I tossed it out after the top lamp made a "poof" sound and started to flame. Literally flame....not spark but started a blaze. I was lucky that I was not sleeping as my entire apartment would have been up in flames over a [...] lamp.

I am on the market for another lamp and am willing to spend the extra dollars for peace of mind. I would rather spend a couple of extra bucks on quality than have to replace my entire apt's furnishings or worst loose mine or my children's life.
