Not the one I received. Definitely a cheap aftermarket lamp made in Mexico.

I concur with Havilla. First time I replaced the bulb for my Sony TV, I bought it directly from Sony although the bulb shows it was made by Phillips and cost me about $160. It lasted about 5 yrs. The second time I need to replaced the bulb again, I got cheap and bought just the generic bulb which I realized has 2000 hrs life for $29.00. The bulb lasted less than 2 yrs. Third time the same TV needed to replaced the bulb, this time I chose a Phillips brand (just the bulb), per the maker, its has 6000 hrs. Hopefully the warranty speaks for itself not the Amazon.San Juan

I recently purchased this item (1-2 months ago), and it was both the bulb and the housing - original sony parts. Not the cheap knockoff. The last one lasted us 5 years.

I'm not sure who the manufacturer is because I am not home at the moment... although the lamp works great, it comes with both bulbs and the mount is great too!

It should be, but there is a new LED & infrared light out. Might be better. Look at the Sony.com website.

Yes, it is a genuine Sony part. My tv wasn't very old, and I was not happy when the screen went bad! I bought another tv because I thought it would be expensive to fix. A friend of mine told me I just needed a lamp and after finding it on the Sony website, someone told me to get it on Amazon. That was over a year ago. It took my friend about 5 minutes to put it in, and my tv has been working great ever since! Five stars!

I am not sure, but I know that it works great and looked just like the original lamp that cost me almost $100. This lamp is mich better deal and works just the same.

Yes, the replacement lamp I purchased from Projector Nova did come with the housing. Note that the housing did not fit my Sony. The connector was not exact and did not connect. I took the lamp out of the original housing and replaced the lamp. The instructions and Sony does not recommend the consumer to do it due to mercury in lamp. However, it took me less than 10 minutes to replace the lamp in the original housing. If you have more questions let me know.

Yes, housing is included. Mine came in a box that made it look like it was for a projector instead of a TV, but it was the correct bulb and housing.

Look up the lamp in your owners book and if it matches then order the Sony.. its so simple to change it.. If you do not have the owners manual then go on line and it will be there.. I bought two lamps because if I sell this tv for a new one, its a great selling point to have the second lamp.. Good Luck Gene

It IS made in China! And, I haven't figured out how to update my review of this lamp on Amazon, BUT - no, the first one didn't work at all, BUT the replacement was sent with no problems in getting it AND works beautifully! I love the sleek, modern design and it's thin enough to be placed exactly where I need it, with just exactly the right amount of light. I am VERY pleased with this lamp now.

I don't remember, I returned the lamp. It looked much nicer online than it did in person.

I didn't see a line on my screen after replacing the lamp & housing. I will speak to the other comments though. The OEM lamp & housing did not have SONY printed or etched anywhere on the unit & I suspect SONY contracts these out to the lowest bidder anyhow. My replacement has performed flawlessly & is much brighter than the OEM part, as I would expect from a 8-9 year old part. I have had the replacement for about 2-3 weeks, so I can't testify about longevity yet. I'm completely satisfied to save $200 on a bulb!

I have had poor luck with the filters being included unless the seller is identified as Sony directly. Filters are included with genuine Sony parts. Otherwise it is an OEM equivalent lamp, which generally do not last as long.
