Can you use a LED bulb instead of the CFL?

I don't know. I returned the item because it arrived broken. It looked really cheap anyway...was happy to return it.

Dimable CFL might work, or if at least one standard bulb is in the circuit it might also work

Yes. I originally used a 42watt CFL bulb in and it worked fine, however it was too bright for the room so I switched it out with a 23 watt CFL which is equivalent to 100w incandescent.

We have a 3 way cfg bulb in the top light and a regular cfg bulb in the reading light. I don't know if you can use an led bulb.

yeah, I have a 60w incandescent in mine, so I wouldn't see why a CFL wouldn't work.

I use a 23 watt CFL in my fixture with no problem. The limitation of the fixture is wattage so CFL and LED lights are ok if they will fit inside the globe.

They make an LED version, but I don't think you can replace the CFLs that come with it.

That is the great thing about LED bulbs, they us much less electricity and do not generate any heat! The answer is yes you can.

I would say no with one exception. CFL and LED bulbs are still rated in terms of the wattage an incandescent bulb with the same lumens (brightness) rating would consume. So, for example, a 5000K, 1500 lumems CFL bulb would draw 32 to 35 watts, well under 60 watts, even though it is consider equivalent to a 100 watt incandescent. I've used such CFLs with no problems.

No this is not an LED bulb, but no reason why you cannot use one. I notice there are more and more selection of LED bulbs now in the stores.

I'm sure you can use a 13 watt CFL bulb in this lamp (60 watt standard bulb equivalent). I have a 20 watt CFL (75 watt standard bulb equivalent) in mine and have had no issues. Have to turn switch 2 times to turn on since this is a 3 way 150 watt lamp, but that doesn't bother me any.

It should have no problems with CFL or LED bulbs, it does not alter the electrical current going through it. I use it for my home theater projector (connected as if it was the fan).

Yes you can. I have standard 60 watt bulbs in mine. They give off more mood lighting. They look great!

You can use any bulb that you prefer as long as it fits with the base, the fixture's dimension and the maximum wattage allowed. But, yes. I highly recommend if you'll use an LED because it doesn't heat up. What I use for this one is actually a globe bulb. I love it because the lighting is very pleasing in the eyes. Bright yet cozy. Plus, it's really durable and high quality. Hope it helps!

Yes, it suggests using LED, but we are using the older type incandescent bulb.

You can use standard incandescent bulbs. I use this with recessed lighting in my dining room. You CAN use the DIMMABLE CFL bulbs with these, (have tried it) though I don't really like them. I haven't tried the dimmable LED bulbs yet, but that's next on my list. I don't see why you couldn't though. The key word here is to make sure they're dimmable. Just make sure you don't exceed the rated wattage.

I do not own any LED bulbs yet so I am unable to answer this question. I do use an have put in a spiral CFL bulb with no problems. Thanks.
