Barely FunctioningPaulAnother useless rushed to market product.
Item functions as a lamp (i.e. when wired and fitted with a lightbulb it will light up) but the silver cone between the ceiling and lamp is held in place with a friction based mechanism that fails instantly. I installed it 15 mins ago and have already pushed the cone back up to the ceiling 4 times.
Without modification to the restraining mechanism on the cone there is no way this product will function as a decorative lamp.
This should have never passed a serious product review.1
Great Hanging LightsBebeA great alternative to pedestal lights. The globe is a bit of a pain to put on and take of to change the light bulb (since it's not a screw in fixture). Otherwise it gives out a lot of light but isn't blinding.4
Bulb recommended is no goodAnonymous reviewerThe bulb recommended on the package is too large to fit into the opening in the top of the shade.4
Nice look, but horrible product conception.Anonymous reviewerI'm a great Ikea fan. Great products and great designs. That's why I don't understand how that product has made it all the way to the consumer. You wonder who approved that product to begin with. It's the weakest item they are selling. The base that needs to stand firmly to the ceiling does not hold in place, and therefore slides down. Not mechanism to lock it, like most other ceiling products they sale. It's utter nonsense that Ikea would still have that product on the floor, even after all the comments and complaints. Unfortunately, I lost my receipt after buying 3 of these lamps. Shame on me. But shame on you if you buy it and read all these reviews.1
Don't buy itAnonymous reviewerSame as other reviews. The silver cone did not stay up. The staff in the lighting department1
FrictionAnonymous reviewerSame as other reviews. Cone doesn't stay flush to roof. Slides ALL the way down to the lamp. I'll have to glue it to the roof or replace it.1
Pendant lampAnonymous reviewerThe silver cone cover that slides around the electrical part of the fixture kept slipping down the base, so I had to buy a new pendant lamp. Sadly this one is in a box in my garage. Look great hung though.2
Anonymous reviewerThe one I bought was not made properly. The metal piece that is supposed to be flush with the ceiling did not stay up as the directions indicated. I returned this product and did not purchase another one.1
