Review on πŸ’‘ Vintage-Inspired 6-Pack Edison Light Bulbs - G25/G80 Globe Shape, 60W, 2100K Warm White, Dimmable, E26 Medium Base by Joseph Hernandez

Scratches in the lamps? Burn out in one day?

The packaging was fine (none was broken). Overall brightness and warmth are good, but every single bulb (each of the four packs tested) feels scratched and dirty. I tried wiping 2 of them thoroughly with a glasses cleaning cloth and it didn't make much of a difference to their appearance. I've ordered Edison style bulbs before with no problems, but I'm curious as to why they have all the scratches and marks on the inside. My lamps have transparent shades, so I ordered these lamps because I wanted them to be visually appealing. When they are off, they look beautiful. But when you turn on the light, the defects in the light bulbs really show themselves. UPDATE: I don't know if I received the wrong box? I've already burned out 2 lightbulbs, each in less than a day. Definitely disappointing for the dollars spent. No lightbulb should last just one day. The lamp is newer and I haven't had any problems with it in the past so I don't think the problem is with the lamp.

Pros
