 Caution about these bulbs July 5, 2008
2 out of 9 found this review helpful
Just a little caution on CFL's in general. They are made using the element Mercury. If one of these bulbs breaks, it's going to cost you a small fortune to get the mercury cleaned out of your house. If you have small children, don't put these bulbs in any place that might be in danger of being broken. Sure they'll save you money on your light bill and the companies make you think you're saving the planet, but you're hurting it really. In 5 years, when these bulbs start to burn out, our landfills will be full of mercury. I wonder what the autism rates will be by then?
 Energy saver June 29, 2008
This is a great energy saver and a great package price. The light from these lights a satisfactory.
Gives a nice warm light and a warm fuzzy feeling June 13, 2008
I bought the 12 pack of these bulbs and replaced every incandescent bulb I could with them. They give off a nice warm light, not harsh at all. There is a brief pause between flipping the switch and the light coming on but that's the way life is in the non-incandescent world. At least you get a warm fuzzy feeling knowing you're being a bit kinder to the environment... and you're saving money on the power bill.
No complaints here.

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.
