the light is baeutiful and very trendy and looks exactly how its pictured. the only thing that I would advise anyone on is that they wear gloves when assembling the light BC the oils on your fingers could stain and show on the light...

I am quite dissatisfied with the whole experience. The construction (visible tabs on interior of fixture), material, finished product (balance issues), quality (make sure you don't bend a piece, it will permanently crease), and overall concept of this lamp. Hindsight being 20/20... I should have put up the extra cash and gone Le Klint. This lamp was a total pain to put together, countless folds, countless "insert tab a into slot B" repetition, uninspiring construction. It does not come with a lamp pendant / cord, etc... which took a Lowe's and Home Depot trip to find a compatible fitting. Instructions are vague and not comprehensive (particularly in the "mounting / installing" area) The experience with this lamp just fell short for me in every way. I have low ceilings (7'5" i believe) hanging above a "bar height / pub height" table this lamp is on a 3" drop... (I have the medium model) and looks strange. It has some symmetry problems and does not "self balance" as one would presume.. I had to use some cardboard for a work-around and a hour of "futzing" to make it "level" (center the cord in the fixture). I wouldn't say DONT buy it... but hopefully you will find this helpful for setting expectations when you hit the buy button.

We replaced our dining room chandelier with this stylish and modern light. First, the reason this light is getting 4 stars and not 5, is because it took about 3 hours to put together. Of course, if you could purchase it assembled it would probably cost 5 times as much. My wife loves this light!

Looks great, client loves it. Of course, I had to pay one of my guys to put it together. I probably should have known, and I'd buy it again, but didn't realized just how long it was going to take to assemble. Great looking lamp, but be warned.

The shade was easy to assemble - very Ikea-ish in terms of projects. Give yourself a couple of hours for assembly, you don't want to be rushed. It's like origami, there's lots of folding involved.

I'm very happy with the Norm 69 lamp. It looks great, and I have a sense of pride from assembling it myself.

Note that this is only the lamp shade; you have to buy a light fixture to put it on.

I would definitely buy this product again, and I would recommend it to anyone.

I bought the "small" Norm 69 lamp shade. The instructions don't go into too much detail. I nearly had the whole thing together when I realized the pieces needed to be connected in two places (top and bottom). I took it apart and assembled it again but the amount of time spent unsnapping weakened the integrity of the plastic pieces. It started coming unsnapped as my normal size man hands tried to fit the narrow end of the cool looking lamp shade together. I dropped it a few times (it came unsnapped) I cussed out loud and yelled this is “fxcking bullshxit” a few times when I thought it’s time to buy another one. I really like the look. I'm buying a “Large" Norm 690 lamp and will tape the small one together and flip upside down and go on another lamp. The large will hang pendent style from the ceiling. No issues with ylighting. The piece came fast with friendly service. Norm 69 can use some improvement on instructions and product quality/design and I could probably use some anger management courses.

WOW - the assembly is not for the impatient! Take quite a while to put together and small hands help. The directions are minimal at best. And, FYI - it is NOT a lamp...just the shade. You have to buy the light assembly and there is no guidance on that either. TIP: warm the parts on a heating pad so they don't 'crack' when trying to bend them!!!

Not that easy but fun to assemble. Would have better if the lighting kids are included and the material used is hardier. Find the material flimsy and prone to tearing. Overall still a lovely product. Delivery by YLiving was very prompt as well.
