can I use CFL bulbs with this lamps?

I don't see why not. As long as they are small enough to fit- a majority of all light bulbs that are made now are energy saver of some sort. They do come with light bulbs included.

I'm going to say I don't know because I couldn't find CFL bulbs to fit. This uses a short bulb which are provided with the lamp. I wanted something frosted, so I purchased regular bulbs.

I'm not sure, probably ok since they are small & do contain mercury, & but you can use the dimmer. I bought LED daylight bulbs & love the lighting, we just dim during tv time.

You should be able to. They even kinda work with CFLs; although I don't recommend it.

I don't believe they make cfl in the size u need. It takes a size Ca bulb which is a smaller size base made for some fans and lights.

Only use CFL (curly Q bulbs) that are designated as "dimmable". LED and standard incandescent bulbs should work fine.

Namely's comments made me reply that this switch is NOT being used with a CFL! It is a ceiling mount light fixturewith regular 40 watt bulbs.

Yes, but CFL worked better for me on this fixture. I'd really recommend using a 100W equivalent CFL bulb. It worked best for me in terms of lighting (that is, if you want your light to be bright but also very relaxing for the eyes) and this bulb, specifically, is really durable and energy efficient.

Yes, you should be able to. The sticker on the lamp says "100 watt maximum". I have a 13w CFL bulb in mine, and it works just fine.

I have not tried on CFL's only in use on chandelier lights with 25-60W candelabra standard bulbs.

I don't think you would have any problem using CFL especially with the low watt like that.

Yes, They use regular light bulbs. I currently am using the CFL energy efficient bulbs.

I currently use a CFL bulb in mine. Only limit would be the size of the bulb (higher wattage = bigger bulb)

The CFL/LED designation means it will work with low watt lamps, regardless of the lamp base. There should be no problems.

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.

Yes, the CFL bulbs won't make any difference however mine didn't work at all so I'd be a bit hesitant to make the purchase if I were you. Had nothing to do with the type of bulbs it just wouldn't work.

I do not know if CFL flood bulbs can be used, but I highly recommend you buy another option. Two months after I got this it fell apart on the middle portion of the pole and could no longer be used.

To my knowledge, I don't think so.There are cfl bulbs that are specifically designed for dimmer operation.

You need dimmable CFL's but I would not use these as you will not find the range of dimming very good and there is a hum sometimes. I would get energy efficent LED bulbs or just stick to incandescent.
