Waste of money

I installed 2 of these 3 way bulbs and both worked. Fast forward to the next time they need a replacement. The other 4 bulbs didn't work! When I last ordered them all 6 bulbs worked so I didn't have to bother checking them when they arrived. This was a major inconvenience when trying to be proactive in ordering a good stock. Very disappointed.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Some minor things

Great Price Genuine GE Bulbs

Incandescent lamps like those sold by this supplier, which are becoming increasingly difficult to find commercially, remain the safest and best indoor light sources. The lamps I order from this seller are genuine GE items and they arrived quickly and intact, none broken which makes me a happy backpacker with the purchase.

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
  • Operating Speed

These lightbulbs are garbage. I'm 3rd in this.

These lamps are rubbish. I am already the third in this lamp and only received it at the beginning of February (2018, still February). Either the 40w phase or the 60w phase will burn out within a week of use. Don't buy this. Sylvania is more reliable. I wish I had bought 3 packs of these. Well, it's up to me.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Only available in black

Durability and potential safety hazard!

Even when it was reinstalled it made a strange popping noise when turned on. I had a feeling these bulbs were junk and wouldn't last long and could pose a fire hazard. I read about the Hungarian made lightbulb and figured it wouldn't last long and could pose a potential fire hazard oh my god. The first bulb burned out after 5 months, that's garbage and can be dangerous!

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Expensive

two of the six only work one way - darkest setting

They appear to be good but based on previous experience ordering lamps from Amazon I tried all the lamps on the day they arrived (today). . Two of the six pears are not triple, although they are clearly marked as such. They turn on at the lowest setting, but then turn off instead of ramping up to 60W and 100W. Too much pain to go back so I use them where I need a dim lightbulb. I hope the other four hold up - they still work out of the box.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Compatibility

Very disappointed - bulbs

Very disappointed with these bulbs. I have 2 lamps that I put them in. I have replaced 2 bulbs 3 times each and in one of the bulbs I had to change it back to a normal bulb because it burned out last night! Using a regular lightbulb I typically get months if not more from a single lightbulb. I used 5 lightbulbs in less than a month! With 2 lamps, that's ridiculous. I am very disappointed in the quality of these lamps!

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Can't remember

two out of six only work in one direction - darkest setting

They seem good but based on previous experience ordering lamps from Amazon I got all the lamps the day they arrived (today) tried out ). Two of the six pears are not triple, although they are clearly marked as such. They turn on at the lowest setting, but then turn off instead of ramping up to 60W and 100W. Too much pain to go back so I use them where I need a dim lightbulb. I hope the other four hold up - they still work out of the box.

Pros
  • Best in the niche
Cons
  • I will add later

The best price you will find for a three way light bulb!

That's a great price! If you're reading this, you're also looking for 3-way light bulbs, which means you know how much they cost at Walmart or the grocery store. I thought it was a scam or they are broken or something because the price was amazing compared to Walmart. All my bulbs were intact, all work and I am very pleasantly surprised. I had these not long ago so obviously I haven't even survived a lightbulb so can't speak to durability, but even if they only last half of what they're…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Expensive
