Tools and Hardware Reviews of GE 97659 13-Watt (60 Watt equivalent) Energy Smart Soft White Spiral T3 Light Bulb 6-Pack
Customer Review: Great bulb, no problems....
Summary: 4 Stars
I use these in most places throughout my house, and they do save money. I have not had any break, and they last a very long time, much longer than a regular bulb. This price is very good, and less than my local "wholesale" club. Also, you are doing a little extra to help the environment. Keep in mind that this is a fluorescent bulb and so cannot be put on a dimmer (there are some CFL's that are dimmable, just not this one). I find it takes just a few seconds for the bulb to come to full power in the cold and in the house it comes up like a regular bulb. One last note, the end of the bulb is not as rounded and may not fit in some fixtures. It is not much different, but worth noting for those rare fixtures. The last two are my reason for 4 stars. I would have been happier giving it 4.5 stars, but that isn't possible.Customer Review: Not a quality product
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought these bulbs with the idea of going green... little did I know it was going to cost me green.
Within a week and a half two out of the three bulbs I installed have burned out. I double checked and tried screwing them in a bit more just in case they somehow became loose in the fixture. They burned out far too quickly.
2 out of 3 is not acceptable.
I would suggest these are not the bulbs to buy.
Customer Review: Energy & electric bill saver!
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this 6 pack of bulbs because the price was just to good to pass on. I had recently purchased some "smart bulbs" and paid a lot more for the 3 count pkg. I must admit I was a bit hesitant but upon receiving my electric bill I am convinced!! I have saved over $50.00 a month so far! I am looking forward to the continued savings. The bulbs put off great light for a fraction of the coat. Thank you, Amazon!!Customer Review: Nice, But very expensive.
Summary: 3 Stars
It used to be that GE was one of the only companies with a CFL that had a nice color. This soft white bulb is very nice in fact, but recently the el cheapo lights at the big box home stores have become just as good, for only a dollar or two per bulb. So... this is a good light but costs what it did 3 years ago, not market value.Customer Review: 1 broken bulb in the package
Summary: 3 Stars
Well, they are light bulbs, they either work or they don't. Or, in my case, one bulb in the package was broken. The package wasn't crushed during shipment, and the tip that was broke off wasn't in the box, looks like it was packed that way. The only good news here is I found it before I got to the last bulb in the carton.
