Looks good
Looks good and seems a decent quality , I bought this to make a lamp from reclaimed wood and copper pipe and the brass is a good look , 1 downfall is the earth connection is on the top which in my opinion will cheapen the final finish

Could be dangerous
Seems like a dangerous design compared to others on the market, no safety feautures to stop the internal conductors being permanently live when there is no bulb inserted, another lamp holder purchased in store for the same price includes a kill switch which prevented the conductors being live when no bulb is inserted. Won’t be using the holders for this reason.

Well made, nice ceramic insert ............
.........so won't melt or crack with higher wattage bulbs or halogen bulbs which run very hot. Didn't use the lock screw as I worried about it creating a sharp edge and digging into the live cable, just locked it on the 10mm thread mount with superglue

Doesn't work
I bought a lamp wiring kit and a spare in case of problems. I wired everything correctly, I went to switch it on, nothing. I checked the fuse, I checked the switch, I checked 5 bulbs, I checked the cable. All fine. Do not buy, this product doesn't work

Renovate your antique table lights
Safely renovate your old lights with an authentic-looking light fitting. This has an earth point to allow the metal lamp holder to be earthed to comply with current regulations

Can't unscrew
Absolutely impossible to unscrew so you can actually wire anything up. Tried plyers, WD-40, heating the metal up, put it in a vice, you name it, I tried it and it would not unscrew. Metal bent before it would unscrew, and some of the coating has come off due to the brutal process of trying to unscrew it. Severely disappointed, should have listened to all the other reviews that said the same thing.

Don’t wast your money
Don’t buy this! Had mine delivered today. The bottom bit won’t unscrew for you to connect the wires to. Says to take the shade ring off and give it a sharp tap on a flat surface. Tried this and still won’t loosen up and the bit inside has now broken into bits. Don’t waste your money.So annoyed 😠
