Using your Tamiko table lamp is easy. First, you'll need to assemble it. It should take about 5 minutes. Once it's put together, find a nice spot for it like a nightstand or console table. Plug it in and use the in-line on/off switch to turn it on. The lamp comes with a single 4-watt LED bulb that gives off 450 lumens of white light. When it's time to clean the lamp, always disconnect the power first. Then, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the lamp and shade. Don't use chemicals or household cleaners as they can damage the finish. Also, be aware that the lamp contains DEHP and lead, which can cause cancer, developmental, and reproductive issues according to Prop 65.
