This lamp is terrible! I purchased two and returned both! the first one had a thread issue and got stuck and the second one the lights flickered! I gave it two stars for the look of it and the idea but it is very poor quality.

Agreed with comments about poor quality. I have one lamp, it’s been good, bought another to match. Couldn’t assemble due to misaligned threads. I read reviews and was like hm well my first one is fine. It’s so easy to return to target that it’s not a huge problem but tbh not worth it.

The glass lamp shade was shattered into many pieces on opening - not well protected in the box. Don’t love that it’s glass - seems a hard plastic would be safer and just as aesthetic. The complaints about thread screws - it take a lot of perfect alignment but I think u can get it working okay if you’re patient.

I love the look of this lamp, but the threading is absolutely awful. The main light switch completely came off and I have found no way of putting it back on because of the way the threading is. I just have to push it in to be able to twist and turn on the light. So it sits there, but will always fall out after I let go.

We bought 2 of these. On one the dimmer switch lasted a couple months. I replaced it with a basic on/off (non-dimmer) rotary switch and it's still going strong. The dimmer on the second unit lasted a few years before it went bad. The switch doesn't just stop working. The lights (LED bulbs) in the top unit start flickering randomly. It was a bit harder to remove the dimmer module from the tube on the second one. Let's just say it didn't come out in one piece, as the pic shows. Would I recommend these? Only if you like flashing lights or you're able to do the minor electrical work to replace the dimmer switches.

one of the two "mother" lamp sockets doesn't work - disappointing

I was happy with this purchase until the lamp suddenly stopped working with 10 months of use. The lamp was plugged into an outlet with a wall switch. Even without it being used to control the lamp, the main dimmer switch on the lamp has failed. The top lights on the lamp no longer work.

Top portion of lamp stopped working not long after purchasing. Unfortunately it was past the return window. Such a waste of money.

I've bought and used these Threshold mother-daughter lamps for a few years now. My first one was bought in 2019 and, over the years, I've acquired 3 in total. The first two older ones are still going strong, but the newest one that I bought 10 months ago - in Jan, 2022 - suffers from the same issues other reviewers have posted. I do use dimmable bulbs in the lamps. The newest model has a noticeable buzzing noise when the dimmer is used below full power. Also, I had an incident where the top lamp wouldn't turn on. I tried multiple times turning it off and back on, nothing. I waited an hour and tried again and it finally worked again but now I don't trust it not to recur.

Arrived shattered. Not packed properly for shipping. The lamp box says to keep upright but it was shipped on its side in the Target box.
