I find the glass shade to be pretty proportional with the rest of the lamp, since the stand is so slender. It would be nice if the whole thing was bigger in general, but since I like the style I'll make do. Visually, it's very unobtrusive.
While the base is solid and has a decent heft, the stand wobbles a bit back in forth just from the air of a fan, so I wouldn't recommend using it in a spot that gets a lot of traffic, or where there are kids/animals running around. Right now it is behind my couch so I don't feel that it is an issue.
Putting it together is simple in theory, but getting the shade on perfectly straight while cinching down the inner clamp is quite difficult. If you're anywhere near as neurotic as I am, expect to spend 10+ incredibly frustrating minutes fiddling with it. The inner rim of the glass is a tad rough in places, but I don't expect anyone to notice, especially not when it's on.
Lastly, I've got a CFL 100 watt equivalent bulb in it and I feel it does a decent job of illuminating half of my living room (approx. 10'x12') but I wouldn't want to read a book from more than a couple of feet away if it was the only light on.

After receiving a replacement lamp( which was a pleasure with Amazon, so simple) as the 1st box came without the top globe, I was a bit disappointed as the size of the globe seems a bit too small in scale for the lamp height. It worked fine for the space I was using it in which was a display room but I felt it would look out of scale in a normal room space. Being that the floor lamp fixture itself as narrow it may not have been able to support a heavier size glass globe.
