I could not understand why many people found this lamp so difficult to assemble or suggested that it is 'cheap' or may fail sometime fairly soon. It takes a bit of thinking for a few minutes but the instructions and diagrams are easy to follow and quite clear enough. It is probably best to have a helping hand due to the length of the uprights while gently drawing-up the pre-configured cables back through the upright poles but it was not at all difficult. Everything screwed neatly into place exactly as per the instructions. The base of the unit is lovely, quite heavy, and supports the whole unit very well indeed, with no tilting or swaying. Just ensure you screw the components together properly and tighten any nuts that they show you to do. Even the proper size spanner is included.

And then return it for a refund of course

both?

But this talks to one of those absurdities of human behaviour, we (yes me included) seemingly never factor in the cost of travel and sheer fag of it when making buying decisions.  People will spend £2 and 20 minutes travelling to a free ATM to save £1.50 and similar to avoid buying both when there's a 50:50 chance of getting it wrong

Humans eh?  It's a wonder we got out of the caves
