Review: Works great - Fit the like I bought at a garage sale perfectly. We bought a soft light and love it. Was easy to install but did have to push it in hard.
Review: Bright, works well - I bought two of these for the old light fixtures in the bathroom which had soft white bulbs (3000K). I like bright white light. Since I could not find daylight bulbs of these type (which are in the range of >5000K), I got these 4100K lights. They are bright and cheaper than Sylvania bulbs of the same kind and they work well. I could not comment yet on the longevity. They arrived on time and I am satisfied!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bright, works well
*by P***E on July 25, 2023*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good price and works as expected
*by S***E on December 24, 2023*

I was in place to replace my burnt-out light for my bathroom. I did some research with other vendors but made my decision to purchase this product because of the price point. Looks and functions as expected. My only complaint is that the finish wasn't as nice (there was some glue or some sort on the plastic where the bulb is attached). I was a little nervous at first because I wasn't sure if it would work, but after installing it, there was no problem at all. Honestly, it's only been day two since I received the product but so far, it's good. If there's any issue, I'll be sure to update this review.
