how do you adjust the height of this lamp the arc sits too low?

It's telescoping, you push the last section (one closest to the shade) into the section closer to the base and can tighten it. I agree that fully extended is too low so I've brought mine in higher so it sits about 6ft high off the floor instead of 4 or so fully extended.

We assembled the lamp according to instructions. Ours is 66 inches from the floor to the bottom of the shade. We have never tried to change the height.

You simply slide one connector tube into the other, and this brings it up (at the expense of decreasing the distance from which it hangs from the base)

You can unscrew the tube from the unions and pull the tube apart so that the height is raised. The top of the arc on mine seats at Aprox. 7.5 feet.

The arc is two pieces and telescopes at its highest point. You can adjust the lamp height by shortening the second portion of the arc.

There is an adjustment midway in the arc of the lamp that you can adjust the arc of the lamp.

It's approximately 6 feet fully extended. You can adjust the arc so it can be higher. The lamp is a great quality for the money!

I have this light and have the legs extended wider to allow the light to sit lower, just above the glass. This seems to work well.

Make sure the plug in the back of the lamp is securely plugged into the base. It can become loose sometimes and I just push the little plug in so it is a better fit. Good luck with this problem.

I have my lamp sitting beside my sewing table. With the arm slightly bent over my working area, it is 4' high. When I straighten the lamp in a vertical position, it stands about 5' high.

Yes there is some ability to a adjust the Angle of the very top of the lamp no by height adjustment though. Our experience has beon quite positive

I adjusted the height of my tube. I cut the threaded insert down to about 1 inch and completely removed the pole. This allows the light to sit close to the ceiling, but not flush, that way light can go up onto the ceiling. I posted pictures of this on my review.

The arc extends approximately 25" out from the pole. What had concerned me was that the bottom of the lamp shade extended down too low. From the bottom ofthe shade to the floor is 52". It worked out perfectly for me, since I put the lamp behind a recliner in a corner and the shade ends up focusing the light over your lap. reading.

The bottom of the shade on my lamp is at about 72". The arc of the extension tube goes higher. There are two possible adjustment locations, one on the base and one on the tube, but I don't know how that affects the height.

Simply pull the mental bars protruding on both sides of the light. It is designed to be adjustable. Might need to apply more force if it feels too tight to pull.

Yes. Each segment can be inserted in the previous one, to a certain point. This will change the length but also the height of the lamp.

The lamp reaches pretty far out. The arced portion at the very top is adjustable. You can have it like in the picture, or you can have it reach out even farther than that, but eventually the lamp shade portion gets lower if you extend the arc far enough. I'm sorry I don't have the exact measurements right now, but it's quite adjustable across a pretty wide range.

Yes-- the lamp that I received can be adjusted. But, it looks a little strange when its not fully extended...

My experience is similar to that of JMG. I have my arc lamp extended the full 35 inches. It looks really good and is fully functional. I placed mine next to a chaise lounge where I do a lot of reading. I have had no problems with the base. If I extended the lamp less than 35 inches, it would not direct the light to the right place.

It's very easy, just use a couple fingers and turn the shield upward. Just tried it to be sure and it works OK.What's not so easy is tightening the knob holding the lamp height adjustment. Almost needs a pair of pliers.

Yes, it could be adjusted from approximately 30-45 inches. Just a suggestion, tho: I'd really recommend that you use an LED bulb for this lamp since it doesn't heat up. Also, using a 40W equivalent LED Globe bulb worked best for me in terms of lighting (that is, if you want your light to be bright but also very relaxing for the eyes) and this bulb, specifically, is really durable and energy efficient.

Where the lamp starts to bend at the top, there is a section of the lamp pole and base pole with a twisting "cap" in the middle. All you have to do is loosen the twist component , and then pull the lamp pole out as far as you want it and then Tighten the twist part again. I made it sound a whole lot more complex than it is lol- it's really easy/ common sense.
