Don't "Stock up" until you know what you are buying! April 22, 2008 37 out of 41 found this review helpful
Compact florescent(CF) bulbs are a great way to lower your energy costs,reduce heat and extend the life of your bulbs.That being said be aware that different types/brands have different Operating characteristics, some have harsh almost "Halloween" style light, some take a minute or so to warm up to full brightness, some take a split second to come on at all. Not every CF is going to meet your needs in a particular situation, so try different ones until you find the ones that say look good in the kitchen, although others might be better to read by,don't feel bad using a Halogen to read if the CF gives you a headache, and don't "Stock Up" until you have tried and like the light output.
So far so good!!! March 9, 2008 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
We love these bulbs and that we're helping the environment. The only "con" if you will is that it takes some time to get used to the lights taking a second to turn on after you flip the switch.
Good value May 1, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
These arrived a couple of days ago, none broken. Each bulb was individual boxed inside a Sylvania carton, this inside an Amazon box with 1 other item I had ordered. I was surprised there was no other packing material, the normal bubble wrap was absent. The basic Sylvania packaging seems quite adaquate for shipping.
I'm new to flourescent bulbs. Not sure if I want to use them everywhere. I ordered these primarily to experiment with replacing the lights in a bathroom vanity light bar that seems to eat normal bulbs at a high rate.
So far I'm very pleased. These bulbs are quite compact while still putting out a nice amount of light. And of course the price is hard to beat.
Almost enough for the whole house! June 7, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We use a lot of natural light in our home, so this 12-pack was perfect for replacing bulbs in the few fixtures that we use often. The warm white is especially wonderful in the living room and kitchen areas. I haven't noticed an 'on' delay when turning the lights on, but I do notice that there's a few-second warm up period before they brighten. The only lamp that we couldn't use these bulbs in is our 3-level dimmer lamp. My husband immediately noticed that it was "not as bright" in our hallway after we installed them, but we noticed our utility bill was a few dollars less. We freecycled our incandescent bulbs and are greatly enjoying our energy-saving lighting.
A cost-saving and long-lasting product June 9, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
