Nice and heavy so the wind don't blow it over works great just put a new bulb and switch on it I hard wired it into my porch light so if you want a plug you will need to get a new one it has a 300 watt bulb this thing lights up the night also raises and lowers the height with a set screw on the side of the pole cash only I don't have them other accounts looks like lead on the bottom of the pole for more weight and has a long cord I'd say 15 ft or so looks like somebody made it not factory
