PROS:
(1) DISPERSED LIGHT: The shape of and distance between the light fixtures permits light to be dispersed in a natural and appealing manner. Since the fixture disperses light, I found that it produced adequate lighting for my 10x10 foot room. However, if you plan to use the light for reading, you would likely need to adjust the angle of one of the fixture of achieve adequate lighting. But, for general use, the three fixtures provided sufficient light.
(2) HEAVY BASE: Though the actual light and fixtures are made of an extremely light material, the base is heavy enough to hold the light steady (even on an uneven surface). However, I have the light placed in a corner where it will not be bumped. If the light were placed in an area where it would be frequently bumped, I believe the base may not be heavy enough to protect the light against falling over.
(3) ADJUSTABLE ANGLE: The actual light fixtures are adjustable. The lights rotate to almost (not a complete) 360 degree turn. Thus, the light fixtures can be pointed down if you are reading or up to the ceiling if you are simply seeking to light a room.
(4) ON-OFF SWITCH ON ALL LIGHTS: There is an on-off switch on each of three light fixtures. The on-off switch is the located on the bottom of each fixture. To turn on a light, you simply rotate the bottom of the light clockwise.
(5) SIMPLE CONSTRUCTION: Putting together the light was extremely easy and self-explanatory. Simply twist together the metal rods. No tools were required.
--------------------------
CONS:
(1) NARROW METAL ROD: The central rod of the light (i.e., rod to which the fixtures are affixed) is relatively narrow and does not weigh much. This creates some stability issues since the three lights weigh sufficiently more than the rod. However, for $37 I believe this light is well-made; it did exceed my expectations.
(2) TOO SMALL FOR MOST FLOODLIGHTS: The fixtures appeared to be too small for most flood lights. The fixtures fit a 60-watt bulb up to 6-inches in length with a 5-inch diameter.
(3) NO CENTRAL SWITCH: Though each individual fixture has an on-off twist switch, there is no central on-off switch for all three lights. This is slightly frustrating if you are looking to quickly turn off the lights.
(4) BULBS NOT INCLUDED: Bulbs were not included. But, for a price of $40, I wouldn't expect bulbs to be included.
--------------------------
Overall, this is a great light for anyone looking for a cost-effective lighting solution.
