Sticky residue finally removed
My silver lamps became very sticky and dusty. I tried a few things without effect until I made a poultice of hydrogen peroxide and baking soda and let it sit for about 20 minutes. Then I used an old toothbrush to scrub it and wiped it with a damp rag. Good as new, but a minor hassle.
Very difficult to clean
I have an orange one and love the look and function but it is extremely difficult to keep clean. The finish is like some kind of rubberized paint which attracts dust and and any oil in the environment like a magnet (especially the base) so not recommended for any where remotely near a kitchen. My desk is one the other side of a low wall next to the kitchen. Soapy water, vinegar and water, and Goof Off will not clean the the oil and grime. The only thing I found that worked was rubbing alcohol. When used though I could see orange on the paper towel which meant the finish was slightly coming off. Left the finish a little uneven looking. Maybe if the lamp is far away from the kitchen and you wipe it down every other day with a paper towel soaked in warm water it would stay nice.
Big, but nice looking
Bought the small size, yet iy looks a bit big. It is pretty good looking, nevertheless. A couple of days later it needed some adjustments with a screwdriver and that was it.
Love this lamp!
