Using this table lamp is a breeze. First, make sure you've fully assembled it as required. Then, just find a nice spot for it, like your nightstand. To turn it on or off, simply give the pull chain a little tug. When it comes to maintenance, keep the lamp away from water and excessive moisture to prevent damage to the metal parts and the fabric shade. You can gently dust the lamp with a soft cloth regularly to keep it looking its best.
