Review: Blast from the past! - My daughter decided that she wanted a lava lamp for her 9th birthday - she saw that one of her classmates has one while they were having a "Zoom" school-day class (Coronavirus social distancing times!) and thought it was super cool. I picked this one based on the reviews and the price, and she loves pink and purple so the colors were perfect. It was packaged well, arrived intact, and works great! Yes, it does take a WHILE to get that lava going, but that's what happens with any lava lamp - the lava is wax and has to heat up to a "liquid" state, and it's just a small incandescent bulb in the base of the lamp that provides that heat, so of course it doesn't start up right away. But once it gets going... wow. When I was a super cool teen in the early 90s, groovy 60s and 70s stuff came back into pop-culture popularity, and I sooooo wanted a lava lamp but never got one (no one-click online shopping back in 1993! :) ) so now I sit with my kiddo and watch hers and oooh and aaahhhh over how cool it is. Maybe I'll just have to order one for myself!!! So: great price, great product, LOTS of fun!!
Review: Like a crapshoot - You know, I've gotten 4 lava lamps from here over the past 11 months. 1st one, this particular one, is and will be awesome! Works perfectly, looks perfect, you get it, the thing is perfect! 2nd, and 4th lamps are pure shit, threw one in the garbage that's how pure the turd is. Turd Uber alles one could say, I am that one. First was just a cloudy mess no matter what I did short of opening it. The 4th ordered another cloudy POS, less cloudy, and I could see the improvements to the lamp frame, etc, yet the internals still fell short. Lastly is the 3rd one I bought, was slightly cloudy with one solid chunk of wax, but still pretty when she cleared up. What am I trying to say in this review? Just that it's a crapshoot buying one online apparently, mine were packed right, unopened, yet still sucked.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the percentage on the chances of getting a good juan?**
A: Juan, heat the milk and the butter together in a medium saucepan, until the butter melts. Remove from the heat and add them warm water, Juan. The mixture should be around 110° F (43° C). Bake in a preheated 350° F (175° C) oven for about 35 to 45 minutes. Then, Juan, remove from oven let cool slightly then brush the bread over the top (while still warm) with glaze. To make glaze, Juan: In a small saucepan combine the 1/4 cup sugar, orange juice and orange zest. Bring to a boil over medium heat and boil for 2 minutes. Brush over top of bread while still warm. Sprinkle glazed bread with white sugar. Juan.

**Q: Does it get very hot? Wondering about putting it in a child's room.**
A: Yes it gets pretty hot. We never turn ours off. Depending on how old your child is...you may not want to put it in their room.

**Q: The wax is described as "yellow", but it is mostly orange/red in the photo. Is the photo an accurate representation of the actual color?**
A: The color changes as the wax progresses up and down the lamp. It is yellow at the bottom, and orange/red at the top.

**Q: Do I need to open the bottle cap on the top? I'm afraid that it will blow up, and I see there is a bottle cap inside the top lampshade.**
A: No, don't open it

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I engineered mine a little and I love it! I've noticed if you see a display ...
*by A***R on May 6, 2016*

I see people have problems with bulbs. I engineered mine a little and I love it! I've noticed if you see a display with multiple lights going, they are all different. Some rise slowly, others are perky, bubbling away. This lamp is a little science experiment: heated liquid rises, cools and sinks back down. The problem is, its all thermal. If the bulbs are not consistent, they give off differing amounts of heat. The temperature of room air affects it too: in warm air it bubbles more, less with cold air. For starters, the bulb is a simple appliance bulb, sold in hardware stores. If the lamp is too slow, replace it. No need to order them. Second, I put a table top dimmer on mine (yea, another $12). The lamp plugs into the dimmer cord, then into the wall. The dimmer slider sits on the table next to the lamp. If it gets too perky, I dim it and slow it down. I keep it on my desk at work, and dim it so it is VERY lazy. I find it calming. Third, maybe I shouldn't recommend, It might cause a fire or something. However, I put the next higher wattage bulb in mine (yea, another $3), so it warms up in like 20min. Then I turn it down. Who knows what will happen if I forget... I wanted to share this because I love mine. Its totally adjustable. It might even be fun to keep it perky or quiet on your desk to match your mood. If someone comes in and that thing's bubbling away, just quietly tip toe out! Coming from CO, it reminds me of tending a wood stove: keep adjusting it so the flame is lazy and mesmerizing. No chimney required!
