Don’t buyMarieIt’s much smaller than expected and the cover doesn’t fit right. I didn’t like the idea of a special light bulb. Better to spend extra money on another lamp from ikea. 2
Poor packing designRyanThe lamp itself was super easy to put together, I think it took me less than two minutes. The annoying bit is the lampshade. The instructions weren’t entirely clear, and I’ll admit it took me reading a couple of the comments here for it to click that I was putting it together backwards. Once you get it the right way though, it still looks severely warped and misshapen because it’s rolled inside the box. To be fair, I don’t know a better solution, and it’s a dirt cheap item anyway, but surely there’s a better way to get these to customers than a way that destroys the lampshade? Either way, decent enough lamp. Just be aware that the shade is going to be hideous no matter what you do3
AwfulJosephDon’t waste your money. It’s much smaller than the photos show and it uses a nightlight battery. Luckily, it’s cheap enough that I won’t even try to return it. It’s in the trash. 1
Great for price DarrellHard to put together. Shade is really difficult. Not the highest quality but would cost more. 4
Excellent without the shade!EdwardNot a fan of the shade, but if you use the lamp without the shade, there are a variety of light bulbs you can use. I have even used C7 Christmas light bulbs. The socket takes any kind of 'candelabra' bulb. Looks very cool, sort of industrial or utilitarian. Very cool the way the cord follows down from the socked along the stem. So, skip the shade, and use it alone with some interesting and cool light bulbs.5
CheapAnnaThe price matches the quality. The shade and the arms it rests on fall off constantly. Plus the way the shade was rolled up, even if you follow instructions, the lamp shade ends up deformed.1
Perfect low lighting for night stands or countersAnonymous reviewerThe base is sturdy and takes up little space. The shade was a little tricky to fit the tabs, but stays perfectly round once correctly assembled.5
Nice lamp, kinda hard to put togetherAnonymous reviewerYou have to turn the lamp shade thing inside out and I think that's why a lot of people are giving this one stars. I was about to give up but I finally got it. It's nice looking. But don't touch it once it's put together or it is liable to fall apart. 4
Great little lampMargaritaI bought it early this year. The lampshade is a bit difficult, I had to rolled it, backwards. Once installed is easy to clean. I have it on my kitchen temporarily.5
LampElizabethIt’s good and better than the price 5
Great for small/narrow side tables. AltheaIts light weight and can knock over easy though. But, it does its job. Nice light, pay attention to the light bulb you get rather its a warm or cool tone. Their cool tone lights are quite bright. I WISH THEY WOULD HURRY UP AND GET THE FLOOR LAMPS BACK IN. Been out of stock all summer. When putting this together dont forget to roll the shade in the opposite direction for a minute because it helps with putting it together and the tension it needs. The arrows are on the outside part and easy to remove the tape if you do it correctly. Just start at the bottom when putting the shade together and dont use force because you dont want to bend it. I got a few of these because they are so cute and the box it comes in can store in a drawer until I need to use another one. I really like these. Well worth the few bucks and dont forget the lights. 5
Great for the priceErinI don't think you can find a more affordable lamp! It provides the perfect amount of light for a bedside table or similar task lighting situation. That being said, it is very finicky to put together and is easy to knock the shade off/ lamp over.4
small night lampPatriciaVery practical for a guest room. Good price. Nothing fancy. 5
Small and bright PaulaNice little lamp to brighten A dark spot easy assembly 5
Not even worth $6AmyI had low expectations given the price, but thought it would be okay enough for a rarely used guest room...nope. The shade is really flimsy and does not stay together. Was not worth my time trying to assemble. 1
Ya get what ya pay forSandraEasy enough to assemble and whatnot. Plastic shade is ‘eh’. I’m going to have my daughter paint it. I bought the ‘warm’ light bulbs because I don’t like bright lights and its still a little bright for my liking 3
lampshade is flimsyAnonymous reviewer The lampshade is very flimsy and does not stay round even though it has been 2 months since I got it. It does not look aesthetically good. Also the join is clearly visible as it does not take the round shape. Very difficult to assemble 1

BARLAST Table lamp, black/white, 12 "
Story

Big design in a small package

Every now and then you need to think outside the famous box to achieve something innovative. But, when we developed BARLAST lamp, we instead stayed inside the box. The goal was a really good lamp at a really good price, and that made the packaging a decisive starting point. From there, we worked our way backwards with materials and design.

Cecilia Sondell Banke, one of our product engineers involved in the work with BARLAST, explains why the packaging can be so crucial for the price: “Transportation is often an essential part of the product cost. By packing the lamp efficiently, we avoid transporting air, and the total cost becomes lower.”

Cross-shape creates stability

When the assembled lamp stands next to the packaging, it can be hard to see how it can fit there at all. A part of the explanation is the cross-shaped base. “We realised that we could make a cross instead of a round base – both to save material and to make the lamp dividable. The cross also adds a unique design element.” The lampshade is made of soft plastic and rolled up like a tube in the packaging. When mounted on the lamp base, it spreads the light both evenly and beautifully.

Low price challenges creativity

A lower price must never mean compromises with quality. To secure stability and that BARLAST fulfils all legal demands, we made thorough calculations and tough tests. “The products with the lowest price are often the most challenging to develop. All our specialists need to be onboard from the start, and we have to think through the whole process step by step. But, they are also very creative projects that we learn a lot from. And when it comes to BARLAST it resulted in a really nice lamp in a small package,” Cecilia sums up.

Material

What is steel?

Steel has unique characteristics when it is stretched and shaped since it remains strong. It provides strength to everything from skyscrapers and cars to bed frames and outdoor furniture. The steel industry is moving in the direction of more energy-efficient production and stronger steel qualities. It doesn’t lose any of its properties when recycled and today steel is one of the most recycled materials in the world.

Form design process

Big design in a small package

Wonder how BARLAST can fit in that small package? Well, that’s quite a reasonable question. A part of the explanation is the cross-shaped lamp base, which makes it dividable, along with the lampshade that is rolled-up like a tube. When the package takes up little space and can be transported efficiently which makes the cost and the price become lower. It also makes it easier for you to bring your lamp home where it can spread an even and beautiful light in the room.
