Although I was expecting a much brighter light than the original bulb, I saw a much whiter light with a pattern that spreads better across the canvas. The area at the base and needle appeared a bit dark compared to the incandescent lamp. That's the only reason I didn't rate it 5 stars. This is my mom's sewing machine and when she tells me that the LED is way better than the old incandescent bulb I give her 5 stars.
