I love the vintage look. Are Edison bulbs a good choice for general lighting?

<a href="https://www.homedepot.com/b/Lighting-Light-Bulbs-Edison-Bulbs/N-5yc1vZ2fkol7b?catStyle=ShowProducts?emt=plpfaq_2508_lightbulbs" style="text-decoration: underline;">Edison bulbs</a> are fantastic for adding a warm, decorative touch to your home with their visible filament design and amber glow. Still, they're generally not the most efficient choice for primary lighting due to their lower lumen output. Consider using them in fixtures where the aesthetic is as important as the illumination.
