Product Description
A versatile, space-saving light source for a variety of settings, this torchiere floor lamp works well for small and large rooms alike. With its sleek, stylish, stay-cool housing, the torchiere makes a nice choice for general lighting in a bedroom, living room, dorm room, or small apartment or for accent lighting in an office, waiting room, boutique, or hotel lobby. Like other torchieres, the unit directs light upward, reflecting the illuminating glow off the ceiling and surrounding walls. The torchiere's plastic off-white frosted shade directs most of the light upward, but its half-shade design also allows for some downward light, too. For added convenience, the floor lamp's three-way switch can be turned to adjust the light output from low to medium or high (18-, 26-, or 45-watt settings). On the highest 45-watt setting, the lamp puts out 2900 lumens with a lifespan of up to 10,000 hours, similar to that of a 175-watt incandescent. An 18-watt and a 26-watt GU24 warm white (2700k) fluorescent bulb comes included. Even more, the floor lamp offers instant start/instant bright (IS/IB) operation, accepts all wattages of bulbs with a GU24 base, provides a heavy-weighted base for stability, and carries an Energy Star rating, which means it runs efficiently, helping to reduce energy costs and impact on the earth. The UL-certified torchiere measures 10 inches in diameter by 70 inches high and carries a two-year limited warranty.

MaxLite ML1G4523ARBK 70-Inch 45-Watt Fluorescent 3-Way Torchiere Floor Lamp, Black Review
I ordered two of these lamps to replace a couple of very old torchiere lamps. They look quite attractive, and most importantly they get the job done. So far both work perfectly, giving light that ranges from soft at the lowest setting to very bright for my little living room at the highest setting. (I should note that I prefer my lights to be relatively low, so your mileage may vary.)Assembly was very easy, basically just screwing the segments together while pulling the power cord out from the base. I had no problem at all doing it alone. I did find it easier to start with the top of the lamp and work downwards, rather than starting from the bottom as the instructions said. They come with one 18 watt and one 26 watt bulb. Replacement bulbs seem to be widely available online, including from Amazon, for a reasonable price.
The only potential problem is that the two bulbs seem to have a noticeably different color temperature - I'm far from an expert in these things but I do notice a difference in the quality of light when using the 3-way switch. This doesn't bother me but it might annoy some people. **Edit: I now realize this isn't true - the change in light that I noticed was because of the positioning of the two bulbs. Sorry about that!
