Inexpensive but worked like clockwork

Compared to other similar products this is deceptively cheaper so I decided to give it a try despite the negative reviews. I used a broomstick to attach the device and tried it out by replacing a high ceiling light on our staircase. It worked like a charm the first time. The task took less than a minute.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Nothing here

very persistent: incandescent bulbs

I've tried using it in my hands - to change the bulb - before installing it on a pole and it really helped me get to know it before I put it on use a pole . Tires are VERY sticky. It's like having eight fingers with grippy rubber on each of the eight fingers. The rubber rubs off easily so dust/dirt won't affect the grip. I'll try to keep it in a zip tie so the rubber fingers keep the grip.

Pros
  • decent performance
Cons
  • working speed

Good tool but not perfect

The device holds the light bulb in place. If you do not tighten the thumbscrew sufficiently, it will loosen and the device will hang on the lamp. According to one review, overtightening can cause cracking. Luckily I pulled the bulb out, but putting in a new bulb wasn't easy. I finally threw my hands up and my wife did it for the first time. One of the other reviews mentioned a broken lightbulb. The answer is potatoes. You put the potato in the lamp changer and spin it. Works great.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Modern

perfect for tall lights

I was concerned it might be difficult to use. As it turned out, it worked great, making a previously impossible job (a tall fixture out of reach of my ladder) safe, quick, and easy. I already had an extension pole with a standard broom thread, so all I had to do was screw on this part, lengthen the pole, slide the basket over the bulb, unscrew it and reverse with the new bulb. The gripping rubber fingers were strong enough to mount and remove the lamp, but not too strong to prevent the tool…

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • No instructions

One of the greatest tools ever invented!

I bought this to replace outdoor lights that are in tight spaces. When changing out, I used to have to twist my arm to reach a narrow spot and pray to God the lightbulb didn't fall off and hit me in the face. My husband was never able to bend his large arm enough to change these lightbulbs. This tool is coming and I'll never have to change a lightbulb again if I don't want to. My husband can use this tool and I can stay home where it's warm and just enjoy the glow of the lights. I don't know…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Obsolete

Product works exactly as advertised

This is a very handy little device. I needed to replace 4 light bulbs in a 12 foot ceiling fan. I screwed the lamp changer to the end of the telescoping rod and secured the wing nut so it wouldn't turn when unscrewing the old lamps. The gadget worked like clockwork. It easily fits over the A19 bulb and holds it in place. Unscrew the old lightbulbs in a few minutes. My spare bulbs were clean. LED lamps A19. They went in just as easily as the old ones came out. This product works great. Of…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Has flaws

This product has worked very well for me

Bayco LBC-100 Standard Bulb Changer This product works very well. I've used it in high places and in very tight spaces. This product solved all my problems. For high spots, I attach a broomstick to an adapter and easily remove lightbulbs 10 feet up. Fantastic grip. lightbulb and there is a high possibility of breaking the lightbulb because you have to use excessive force to grab the lightbulb. It's so tight that you can't put on protective gloves if the bulb breaks. This product worked great…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Good but not great

Great inexpensive solution to keep in mind

As mentioned in the description this tool has threads that mate well with threaded handles for things like brushes, mops etc. Properly tightened, it almost eliminates the need for a set screw to keep the tool from twisting on the handle. If rotation becomes a problem, drill a small hole in the handle to tighten the set screw, which will instantly solve the problem. Wrapping the threads on the handle with tape will also solve the problem. Do not tighten the locking screw so much that it deforms…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some small things

Best choice for standard lamps

After looking at all the available lamp replacements this was the only one that worked. The vast majority of them are designed for radiators. They expect the face of the lamp to be flat, which is why you see so many changers using suction cups. But that's not my application. I just had to replace the stock A19 bulbs in the tall ceiling fan. However, none of the products have indicated that they will work with A19 bulbs and only a few have indicated that they will work with regular…

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are more interesting options.

Worked well, replace ceiling fan bulbs at height

I first bought a whole set of these with three different sized fittings and a support from our local hardware store. However I really only needed one size of lamp changer so I returned the kit and bought this one. There were no individual sizes in our hardware store, just a set. The lamp changer can be easily screwed onto our telescopic rod. Turning the screw on the changer will keep it from coming out when you try to screw in the bulb. I was able to easily remove the mini CFLs from our 20 foot

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Great Price
