I got a few of these to use in my 6-bulb bathroom light fixtures. I'm very please with the soft but bright light they put out. Exactly what I needed and at a great price!

Excellent value and superb light!
I loved the quality of light emitted from these LED light bulbs so much that I replaced all the CFL bulbs in our house with them. Compared to how CFLs take time to reach full intensity, these LED bulbs achieve full intensity as soon as you flip on the light switch. Nice. At about $2.50 apiece, they're a bargain, especially when compared to LED bulbs offered by other companies. Great job, Philips!

Great price good product
Excellent price $2.5 for a not dimmable LED bulb. Work very well in most places.
Do not work properly with motion-sensor wall switches in my house (no expectation here knowing they are not dimmable).

Can not go wrong with these
Very bright and like them because the light lights up cool to the touch so it doesnt give off any heat, barely gets warm. Highly recommended.

Noticed an Immediate Drop in Energy Costs
I purchased a total of 30 (15 packages) LED bulbs to replace incandescent and CFL bulbs already in use. With every replacement I noticed the light was brighter than the original but also less harsh than the CFL bulbs. These bulbs also fit our ceiling fans as they're smaller than many CFL bulbs.
One bulb failed in a couple of weeks, I kept it to return if another failed, but after 6 weeks there have been no other failures.
FPL installed a new house meter a couple of years ago, and until this month their estimates for the next bill were pretty much on the money. This month the bill was 14% less than anticipated, a drop I feel was caused by the switch to LED bulbs.
These bulbs are cheaper than competitors, and are warrantied for only 10 years. But in 10 years I expect I'll be able to buy bulbs for less with longer warranties. I have no regrets with this purchase.

LEDs
These LEDs are similar in appearance and weight to incandescent bulbs. They are attractive and easy to handle.

Easy way to save money and environment.
Good light color balance, instant on, went from 100 watt use to 13 watts with same (total two fixtures) brightness.
My home is now 80% LED lighting with the addition of these bulbs.
Couldn't be happier with the switch over.

Best bulbs ever!
These are the first LED bulbs I tried. They give off a nice light at barely any cost. I leave them on when I am out without thinking about the usage.

Philips LED 60W equivalent
After purchasing 20 bulbs I purchased another 20. The soft white is easy on the eye. I have can lighting throughout the house and other lights that are used regularly. As the overall wattage is quite low they do not perform as well on the dimmers as an incandescent bulb. I actually found one dimmer switch that did not turn off and as the LED's use so little voltage they actually stayed "on" when the the incondescent bulbs were visibly "off". Needless to say that dimmer switch no longer exists!
Great product would buy for them as Christmas presents everyone if they are on sale again near the holidays!

Good color, loud buzzing
The Good
The color is spot on. They were also a pretty good deal (@ $2.50 each).
The Bad
Unfortunately, the buzzing is too much. It would be fine in a ceiling fixture if it were far enough away, but I bought these for the bathroom vanity. Also, I tried using these in my ceiling fixutre and they only flickered. They work fine in other fixutres, and other bulbs work in the fixture that flickers with these, so I'm not sure if that issue is the bulb or the fixture.

good purchase
I purchased in store while waiting as the price was same. I like that the bulbs are LED and hopefully will last a long time. The light is fine for my needs @ 60 watt.

Great Deal For LED Replacements
These were a great deal on LED replacement bulbs. They are in expensive, and are quite a cost savings even when swapping out compact florescent bulbs. I have changed out every bulb in my house with these. There are no dark spots even directly under the bulb.

Bright and instant on!
Unbelievable that a two pack of LED bulbs costs $5. I switched out the living lamps, and bathroom bulbs. 16 of these at 8.5W vs. 16 bulbs at 60W. These LED's are nice and bright...but not super white. Warm color is pretty close to the GE Edison bulbs I've had for years. Hopefully, these LED's last just as long if not longer. Note, these are not dimmable.

Very good bulbs at an excellent price
These bulbs produce a very nice hue of light, are plenty bright and don't seem to get hot. Plus, the price is great. I have used them to replace my incandescent bulbs and even some CFC bulbs. In the case of the latter, I like the instant full brightness. (My CFC bulbs were "instantly bright" but had an annoying dim after 30 seconds or so.) We don't use dimmers in most of our house, so these are perfect. I'll probably buy more. I really do like them a lot.

Great price for 60W Equivalent Light
I bought this lamp because Home Depot was selling it for five dollars for two bulbs. That is a great price for 60W equivalent bulbs.
Pros:
* Instant brightness
* Good color rendition
* Inexpensive
* Saves energy
Cons:
* Not for enclosed fixtures
* Slight buzzing from the bulbs, not completely silent like other LED bulbs

Lowest priced LED bulb
The pros for this bulb are many:
-Current price - 2 for $4.97 is the lowest price I've seen for any similar LED bulb.
-Instant on- no delay and no warm up time.
-No flickering
- Nice warm white color, just like an incandescent.
-800 lumens at 8.5 watts = 94 lumens per watt. That's higher than most other LED bulbs. So this bulb is very efficient.
-No buzzing or humming
The cons are;
- Life expectancy is 10,000 hrs. That's less than many LED bulbs rated for 20,000 to 30, 000 hr.
-They don't work on dimmers

FYI! The reason these bulbs work randomly
I keep reading that: "these bulbs don't always work", or, "these bulbs work only in some fixtures". I've experienced the same problems. So I did some research. It seems the positive contact button (the button on the bottom of the LED bulb) is FLAT, not slightly rounded as in the soldered base of incandescent bulbs, which limits contact (which can be overcome by SLIGHTLY bending the center contact up in the fixture AFTER UNPLUGGING the fixture.) That does not always work due to the fact that the bottom section of the [LED] bulb (the "plastic" part) is slightly wider than the normal [glass] bulb, and limits the amount it will screw down into the fixture (it binds). You think you screwed the [LED] bulb all the way down, and for the most part, you did! It bottoms out on the "lamp socket" before it makes contact & is just not gonna work in that fixture!!! Remedy? Try a different bulb, replace the lamp socket housing, or use the bulb in a different fixture...
Hope this info can/is of use to some of the frustrated folks out there.
Oh, by the way, I haven't used these bulbs long enough to give an accurate rating, but what I've experienced so far I'm okay with them. I have them in the garage door opener(s), in the machinery in the shop & in the furnace/utility room. They beat CFLs by 1000% (At least!) 1000%, not a typo.

I purchase 40 of these to change my whole house over to the LED. I was impressed with the color and amount of light produced from these bulbs. On top of the energy saving they will introduce. Every bulb is working and working great!

Great Bulbs and bright enough!
I bought these when they were 2 for $4.95. They are instantly bright and do not take time to get bright like CFL bulbs. I've only had them for a few months, so I can't attest to life sustainability.. I wish they made dimmable bulbs to replace recessed lights in basement. Will only buy more when needed.
