My Natalia Steel Floor Lamp takes two 150 Watt or dimmable LED bulbs at the top for ambient lighting, but doesn’t stop there. The adjustable gooseneck reading light will accept a 60 Watt incandescent or equivalent for task lighting. The black pole body and gooseneck are topped with white acrylic shades. A patented 300 Watt Double Socket construction allows for two crisscrossed sockets, each holding on/off 150 Watt incandescent or LED bulbs which provides approximately 3 times more light than a typical torchiere. A simple 4-Way rotary switch is located on the pole, adjusting the light as follows: Uplight on, reading light on, both lights on, off. This lamp has a black cord and is smart outlet compatible. Bulbs are not included. NOTE: Use incandescent bulbs up to 150W or dimmable led bulbs (DO NOT USE: 3-way bulbs or CFL’s). We recommend using incandescent bulbs for best results achieving both settings of 50% brightness and 100% brightness with no flicker. When using LED bulbs, it is common to see some flicker on the low setting (high setting will always have no flicker). A dimmable LED will minimize the low setting flicker, but may still occur.
