Since the same company made and advertised both the lamp and stand, I assumed they were made for each other. However, I am sending the stand back because the light bar has slipped off the stand several times. And I'm even afraid to leave the rug on the stand unless I'm in front, otherwise it'll slip and fall. The stand needs a larger edge as it is only about half an inch tall. Too bad, the stand is a quality thing apart from one design flaw.
