IKEA KNAPPA Ceiling Pendant Mood Lamp Modern Art Light

 (9 customer reviews)

I love this light from IKEA! It did not cost very much and looks amazing. The reason for the 4 stars is because it only came with a cord for plugging to an outlet. However, this did not work since I wanted to use it as a pendant light. But, I found a pendant kit on that works it also comes in white and black but I thought the nickel personally worked best; Westinghouse Lighting 7028400 Single-Light Mini-Pendant Kit with Nickel Finish. Also there is some assembly required but did not take too long to put together. Overall this light is worth the cost and looks great but if you want to use it as a pendant then I would also buy a pendant kit as well.

The item was *not* new. It was missing a key piece of hardware and one of its petals was stained. The company that sold it changed its name in the week between purchase and receipt of the incomplete/damaged item. There was and is only one company selling this item on Amazon, but the name has changed again. The item was manufactured for a major, Swedish furniture company--their logo and product numbers are all over the packaging and instructions, including the section for if you have problems with the item. When I called that company, they'd never heard of the company that sold it to me, under either of the two names. So far, I'm out over $50 (yes, somehow it was billed to me as over $56 and change, with only $6-7 of that shipping, how?!). I tried to rate the company, but Amazon's form glitched, and now they tell me you can only rate a company once and there's nothing they can do to provide my feedback or warn any of you. BUYER BEWARE!

This lamp is beautiful hanging in a once dark corner of my living room. It is not just functional it is also an art piece. I've gotten loads of compliments on it, everybody wants one! I have to mention that you have to assemble the lamp yourself, putting each "petal" on the base structure. Its not hard, just a little time consuming but well worth the time.
