Received everything broken

Bought 6 pieces. They were wrapped in bubble wrap. All but one were broken and unusable. Couldn't go back because I didn't know until I used them. Check them out next time you get them.

Pros
  • So far satisfied
Cons
  • Expensive

Halogen bulbs at a great price

I always have spare bulbs so I don't have to go to the store when I need to change a bulb. The price of this multipack is better than any retail store where I buy physically. They are also energy efficient.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

Damaged bulb quickly replaced

I have over 20 of these bulbs at home. Not very impressed with longevity, but brightness is fine for my use. My last order of 6 had a damaged base that would not screw into the socket. I'm glad it was the first one I opened or I may not have found it for months. He was promptly replaced.

Pros
  • Heavy duty
Cons
  • Faulty

I actually like the GE bulbs better

These bulbs are dimmable so I chose them over the par 30 GE bulbs. I actually like the GE bulbs better as they give off a warmer light, but they weren't dimmable. This seller packed the bulbs to ensure they arrived safe and sound. Thanks very much! I recommend this supplier and will definitely buy from them again.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Negative

Disappointment: bulbs

The first bulb I tried didn't work, I could hear the inside rattling. The remaining 5 separate boxes were damaged; torn, multiple cuts with a box knife, crushed. All packaging has been treated very roughly. I was wondering how the product was received. Decided I couldn't trust the durability of the remaining bulbs. Great service from Revain. compliments to the staff.

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • quality

Please do not order this 6-pack

Bulbs are fine. The problem lies in the packaging. When I first ordered they arrived in a thin plastic bag with a layer of the thinnest bubble wrap ever made. Four bulbs were broken/cracked so I sent them back with the (pathetic) original packaging. I rolled that the packaging (transport robot? computer? warehouse worker?) would be better suited for six GLASS LAMPS. But no. The replacement package was exactly the same. A couple of badly dented boxes, but no cracks (yet), and I needed two…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • disappears

Sucking pears lasted only 6 months.

These lamps were purchased and installed in August 2018. Decommissioned February 2019. Ooooh, Sylvania makes a lightbulb that lasts 6 months. Woo dee doo. I believe the first Edison bulbs lasted over 6 months. (Probably not really). But really? What happened to the production of light bulbs? Maybe Sylvania should have stopped making giant CRT TVs, I think they succeeded. But Sylvania definitely can't make a lightbulb. The product is called Capsylite. Should be called Crapsylite.2/3/2020 Update.

Pros
  • PAR30 dimmable halogen lamp that provides bright white, high quality halogen light with a lifespan of over 1500 hours.
Cons
  • Available in black only

Bulb burned out after only 6 weeks

I was very pleased that these bulbs were available. I live in an apartment with track lighting and those bulbs can be quite expensive. I really don't want to spend a lot of money replacing lightbulbs that I may not use in the future if I eventually move house. I replaced two lightbulbs 6 weeks ago and one of them blew today. I'm pretty sure this was one of the replacement bulbs recently purchased as all the previous bulbs were the same before I replaced them with this other brand. I am very…

Pros
  • PAR 30 halogen bulbs offer excellent quality of light - emits a flat and round beam at a wide 50° angle
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Best in class but I found a replacement

I have been using these bulbs for years and have learned never to leave fingerprints on them - this would damage the bulb and they will burn out much faster. Who knows what other reasons these bulbs last from 6 months to a year in our kitchen. Unacceptable. The second thing I learned was to use less power as 75 watts might not work well in a lamp. Angle in degrees or spread of light. Now we are testing these LEDs for efficiency but have no idea if the performance will be above the promised…

Pros
  • Includes: 6 Dimmable PAR 30 Halogen Reflector Bulbs / 39W / 2850K / 120V / E26 Medium Cap / 550 Lumens - Warm White Halogen Bulb.
Cons
  • No power
