Troubleshooting
Shade does not fit securely.
Ensure the lamp holder ring is correctly screwed back onto the bulb socket to grip the shade's gimbal. Check that you are using the correct type of light fitting for the shade's intended attachment.
Light is too dim or too bright.
If the light is too dim, ensure you are using a bulb of sufficient wattage (up to 28W) and that the bulb is functioning correctly. If too bright, consider using a dimmable bulb with a compatible dimmer switch or smart bulb settings.
Shade appears crooked.
Adjust the reversible gimbal to ensure it is sitting evenly on the bulb holder or lamp base. Check that the shade is centered on the bulb.
Bulb is visible through the shade material.
Check the length of your bulb; it should not be excessively long for the shade. Ensure the shade is properly seated and centered over the bulb.
