Review on 6-Pack Ascher 60W Equivalent Warm White 2700K LED Filament Light Bulbs - 80+ CRI, Non-Dimmable, Classic Clear Glass A19 by Justin Munajj

I bought these bulbs to replace some old energy-hogging incandescent bulbs around the house. They certainly look nice, and give off that familiar incandescent warm glow, at a tiny fraction of the power. In fact, I've so far reduced my lighting power consumption by over 200 watts--and I still have two more!Especially when replacing old-style incandescent bulbs, these are a direct drop-in--and people will be none the wiser! They have a nice even light that's a lot more natural than cheaper LED bulbs. While their CRI isn't the highest (80+), it's good enough so that colors don't look too pasty or harsh.These bulbs even do well outdoors--when it's cold, LEDs don't need to warm up like compact fluorescent bulbs. Unlike other LED bulbs, these "filament" style bulbs don't have any exposed electronics (if any electronics at all), so they're likely to be pretty resilient.Unfortunately, these fantastic bulbs don't have equally fantastic packaging. My first pack showed up as a box full of broken glass shards (Yes, these bulbs are really made out of glass!)--immediately returned as glass had made its way out of the box. It didn't look to be handled roughly during transit as the shipping box had no signs of rough handling. The replacement arrived intact, and I discovered why the original pack was smashed to smithereens: the plastic clamshell packs inside the box come open with no effort whatsoever. If that were to happen in transit, the bulbs would be free to loosely knock against each other and play "bumper bulbs" on the way home. For all I know, this all could've been a fluke and I just got unlucky the first time. But a bit of tape around the edges of those plastic packs would've been nice.All in all, the bulbs worked pretty well and look good both indoors and out. However, the packaging doesn't inspire a great deal of confidence.
