Review on πŸ’‘ Bulbrite Frosted KX60FR/E12 Candelabra Screw Base (E12) Light Bulb, Pack of 1 (1 Count) by Jarrod Zuvers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Incredibly Bright for my opinion

Bought three of these for a new pendant light hanging over our dining room table. They're supposed to take 60-watt bulbs, but if we used normal bulbs as we have with all the ceiling fans in our house (because those came with their own standard 60-watt bulbs) the room would be not be very well lit.With these magical little bad-boys, however, when our new dining room light is on it lights up the entire house. (That's because the dining room, kitchen, and living room are all kind of one connect "great room.") We didn't expect that kind of a difference at all, but we now often turn on our dining room light just to make the experience of being downstairs feel much more alive.As all my ceiling fan lights burn out over time I'm only going to buy these incredibly bright bulbs to replace them. At $10 a bulb, they're pretty pricey, but their quality and amazing brightness totally make it worth the expense.Some people complain of broken filaments upon arrival and if that happens you're supposed to get a replacement. (Some things are defective or break in transport. That's life.)Others complain about a short lifetime for the bulbs. My three have been in for only about 5-6 weeks, and all I'm hoping for is that they last at least a year, especially with how often I use them. If I can squeeze a year out of each bulb, the $10 (each) will still be worth it to me.

Pros
  • Light Bulbs
Cons
