FAQs

Do I need an electrician to install this shade?

No, the Kane Bamboo Easy Fit shade is designed for tool-free installation and does not require an electrician. It simply clips onto your existing pendant fitting.

What type of bulb do I need?

You will need one bulb with an E27 (Edison Screw) fitting. The maximum wattage allowed is 10 Watts. Please note that the bulb is not included.

What are the dimensions of the shade?

The shade has a diameter of approximately 36.5 cm and a height of approximately 10 cm.

Is this shade suitable for a bathroom?

While the shade adds a natural aesthetic, it is primarily designed for living areas, kitchens, or bedrooms. Ensure it is installed away from direct moisture.

Can I use this shade with a dimmer switch?

The compatibility with dimmer switches depends on the bulb used. If you install a dimmable bulb (within the 10W limit), it may work, but the shade itself does not have dimming capabilities.

How do I clean the bamboo shade?

Dust the shade regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For light cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth, being careful not to saturate the bamboo.

What is the weight of the shade?

The shade weighs approximately 0.78 kg.

Troubleshooting

Shade does not fit securely

Ensure you are using a standard E27 bulb holder and that the shade's inner ring is correctly aligned before pushing upwards. Check for any obstructions around the bulb holder.

Light appears too dim

This shade is designed for mood lighting. Consider using a bulb with a higher lumen output within the 10-watt limit or pairing it with additional light sources. Ensure the bulb is clean.

Shade is uneven or wobbly

Gently adjust the shade's position on the bulb holder. If it remains uneven, check that the bulb holder itself is straight and securely attached to the pendant cord.
