## Description

The Lava Lamp has been around for over 50 years, creating just the right mood and ambiance in rooms for generations. The first motion lamp was designed in England in 1963. Known as the Astro Lamp it single-handedly created the novelty lighting category. In 1965, two US entrepreneurs bought the worldwide rights and created the Lava Corporation. They renamed it the Lava Lamp and a globally recognized icon was born. Watch the constantly moving molten wax as it flows, splits and combines while oozing up and down the glass globe. Experience the calming affects of this magical lamp as it adds a soft light to any space. It’s a conversation piece. Enjoy the vast selection of vibrant colors and base decorations that can match any desired decorating style. Works great as a desk light, home décor lamp or night light.

Review: Great - I have had this lamp for several months and used it extensively through the winter and spring (I don't turn on lava lamps during hot summer days). This lamp is great, it has an attractive finish that reminds me of a martian landscape. I have several lamps, this particular one is the favorite of my housemate, and he is picky! This lamp is a good quality for the price. It is, however, one of the smaller lamps. Classic lava lamps come in 3 standard sizes (not counting certain specialty lamps). So be aware the size of this is the 14 inch not 17 inch (17 inch is probably the more common size found in mall shops etc that one would expect if you don't have other lamps for a reference). The wax in this lamp heats up fairly quickly, same quality expected as other current model 14 inch lava lamps. If you want to be able to enjoy your lava lamp's motion effects the fastest, I would recommend getting a 14 inch lamp over the larger sizes anyway, as they are much faster to heat up and create motion. I highly recommend this lamp, it is a lovely orange colored glow and creates a beautiful atmosphere. Would make a great gift, especially for young men, or for anyone who likes lava lamps, retro lighting, or the warm colors.
Review: Be patient! Works wonderfully. - We bought this as a Christmas gift and when it arrived (a few weeks before Christmas), I inspected it. The wax at the base was tilted and not sitting in the base of the glass as it should. Read the instructions, said to give a gentle swirl of the glass until it fell into place - that worked. Kept it upright until gifted. The first two days, it seems to really have trouble getting warm enough to do anything. Day 1 took about 6 hours to finally shape into what looked like a stalagmite form just frozen in place. Day 2 it was getting closer to the top this time, but stayed at the top and didn’t come back down to continue flow. Note: I did not run the lamp longer than 10 hours in one day. Day 3, real “lava” movement happening finally .. slowly and still kinda of boring to look at. Day 4, the lava show presented itself. Flow of wax moving as it should and just nice to watch. My son is very pleased. Will update after having it a bit longer!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's great, but give it time
*by S***E on October 21, 2018*

All I have to say with this product is: It's great, but give it time. I thought it was a dud when I got it and left it on for six hours and nothing was working right. I did as the video said and rotated it while it was on. Turned it off after the 6 hour mark, then I turned it back on and it started working great. Looks amazing!
