“The lantern is just as described on the website on the website. It mentions that it needs AAA battery and unless that was changed since the website neglected to mention that it should be a rechargeable battery. The glow it casts has a decent brightness, with a good medium-to-warm color temperature. The crosshatch pattern made by the thin metal bands that compose the lamp casts a nice, interesting pattern. I have it placed in a flower bed that gets morning sun that at this time of year is in the shade by about one in the afternoon. I was surprised to see that the lamp has been glowing pretty much all night. When I look out the window at like three or four in the morning, it was still on. I am very pleased with my purchase.”
