Is this light bright with the shade over it? Thanks.

It's not meant to illuminate a room by itself, if that helps to answer your question. Obviously, the higher the lumens/watts. the brighter it will be. Hope that helps?

Yes it is. More often that not we use this lamp to illuminate our entire living room. Rarely do I feel the need to turn on recessed lights or a lamp.

It's probably bright enough, but it is a cheap China made product. Mine has not had a problem yet,but I'm sure it will in time. If you want it to last buy a more quality product. I have mine just for fun and it works well! Hope this helps.

The shade is more of a tan, but light and very neutral. It is really nice and the lamp puts out very pleasant light. It is bright enough but not overpowering.I am very happy with it.

I find it bright enough. It's got that incandescent warmth. If you want super bright this isnt it. It is very quiet.

It is relatively bright. I bought 3 but 2 bulbs are more than sufficient to light up the dining area. I used to have 6 40-watt bulbs and 6 7- watt bulbs on the chandelier. As far as I c an remember I did not buy a dimmable bulb because I don't have a dimmer switch.

I would say it depends on how high they are mounted. Mine (only ONE light fixture) is over a kitchen sink/counter in the garage and is mounted only about 7' high. In my setup, it is plenty bright. I like it.

It is bright. I put a small piece of electrical tape over the light and it's perfect.

The dim light is wonderful it's like moonlight. I enjoy it when I'm sitting outside on my back patio, it is really nice. But as soon as I step off the patio I can see the whole back yard. The yard is well lit and it is as bright as a conventional floodlight.

Yes, I've put it under the roof overhang and elsewhere, facing North, where there's no much light. It will reflect anylight you have.

Yes. The only problem you would have regarding a shade is diminished light. But the bulb is plenty bright. Don't use a shade that gets too close to the metal part because it does get hot

sorry for the delayed answer, no it is not like a shade, it is clear and reflects the light.

Yes it is. It is a very nice light. When the sun shines in it sparkles up the room.

Nope, it is still plenty bright. I'm using my macbook pro to answer this and looking at the backlight, it is fine. It's clear, so it doesn't really obscure anything.

No the lighting is just fine. We love the lamp and get lots of compliments.

Yes. The light is very bright for its size. If you don't think its bright enough add a second light.

No it is not bright, not nearly as bright as it appears in the photo. It is beautiful and relaxing.
