Room×Lab Review · Review updated August 28, 2026
Owners praise the textured base and large scale, but repeated reports describe flicker and switch or socket failures, some within weeks
Room×Lab read all 111 distinct written guest reviews on Target's listing for this lamp (listed there as the Tan resin table lamp from Threshold designed with Studio McGee), posted between August 23, 2020 and June 20, 2026. They cover only this lamp, not other colors or versions. Target separately displays 173 total star ratings. The reviews below show two accounts of the praise for the look and scale, then four accounts of flicker or electrical failure.
Room×Lab rating: 7.0 out of 10 (limited confidence). Owners of this lamp praise its textured base, substantial scale and designer-like look for the money; the main caveat is recurring flicker and switch or socket failures, some within weeks or months.
- Textured look and substantial scale: 26 favorable finish mentions and 19 favorable size mentions in the 111 written reviews — Owners often described a neutral, pottery-like look suited to larger nightstands, consoles and desks. A few owners raised size concerns, and one found the color duller in person.
- Dimmer draws far more complaints than praise: 4 favorable mentions of the dimmer and 22 concerns about it in the 111 written reviews — A few owners reported smooth nightly use with a dimmable bulb. Among the concerns, owners describe flicker below full brightness or through two different bulbs, a lamp that flickered at maximum brightness and then died after three months, a unit that never worked, and switch or socket failures within weeks or months.
- Value depends on receiving a sound unit: 29 favorable value mentions and 28 concerns in the 111 written reviews — The look and scale drew comparisons with costlier designer lamps; perceived value fell sharply when owners encountered electrical failure, shade damage or finish defects.
Before buying
Check the 23-inch height and 17-inch shade width against your table. Use a dimmable E26 bulb of 60 W or less and test the dimmer across its range in the first weeks; recurring reports describe flicker and switch or socket failures within weeks or months.
