I love the brightness

The best thing about this bulb is its white color and brightness. Ours was changed last year and suddenly they all break at about the same time.

My husband made a homemade tool to help him unscrew the old lightbulb, but it still takes a while and all the toxic white stuff falls on him when he takes out

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Expensive

The last bulb I replaced had the glass bulb partially ripped off and I had nothing to grab hold of to pull the bulb out. I ended up having to turn off the circuit breaker and grab the…

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • I will add later

The lamps dim when the light is turned on. You can hardly see them at first. They take a considerable amount of time before they lighten. This is unacceptable and involves some risk. They just started to darken on startup after a few weeks of use. The lamps (Eiko) that came with our new home have lasted over 7 years of continuous use and many of them are still good. They never dim when you turn on the switch. This Circle brand does not have the same quality as Eiko. Also, these tubes don't feel

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some small things
