Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Adesso Aries Torchiere, Black
Customer Review: If it only worked!!!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
12-17-09
well the third lamp arrived and to my horror was also from
"returns" department...but I opened it anyway...
Looked intact...and didn't burn out a bulb until...about two weeks ago.
Only one this time and none since...
It is now past my return date...
So (thank God???) I no longer have the option of bundling it back up and
shooting it over to Amazon...
In Conclusion:
IMHO these lamps are defective...
probably why so many are being returned...and I'm getting them from "returns"...
I do like their configuration, the price and the illumination.
IF you get one that works and doesn't cost a mint in burned out bulbs
you'll probably like it too.
I WOULD NOT get a second one (pros do not outweigh cons, for me.)
Wonder why this "burning out bulb" problem hasn't been mentioned by anyone else????
FYI I do have another lamp plugged into the same outlet for 7 years, still plugged in, no burned bulbs, so it doesn't appear to be my electric outlet...
Original Post with Details of Previous Returns:
I like this lamp.
With that said I'm on my third (fingers crossed)
The first two came from Amazon Returns (anyone else with this phenomenon)
Number One Had broken shade attachments and melted styrophome.
I have no idea if it actually worked as I couldn't
even assemble it!!!
Thinking this was a one in a million glitch...I exchanged it for number two
Number two seemed promising as I was actually able to assemble it
then it burned out 5, 150 watt bulbs...that's when I looked at the box
AMAZON RETURNS!!!!
someone else's Broken lamp!!! again!!
(why did it take 5 bulbs you may ask ??? I thought the bulbs were
bad, they blew two at a time, and they didn't immediately blow...which
made me think it was bulbs not lamp....when did the "Light" come on???
when I realized a bulb from the same batch was happily lighting another lamp)
Yes I'm waiting on Number Three (call me crazy, I sure do)
because
I like the lamp
the price range
the 150 watt incandescents
the switch on the pole (not below the shade, which means you
have to stand up to turn on and off)
and I ????foolishly???? still believe that Amazon
will deliver a working, New lamp....
I will update...
