Finally, a great LED bulb
586416
These Philips 40W LED candle-style bulbs with an E26 base are...well, outstanding. I bought these along with the similar 60W Philips models and are exceptionally pleased by the 2700K light color, the lacy pattern cast by the inner structure of the bulbs onto the frosted shades of my ceiling fans, and the quality of the build on the bulb itself. They come on quickly and have a pleasing two-second fade-out when switched off.

I am using these dimmable bulbs in non-dimmable appliances, so I can't comment on how well they dim and the nature of the bulb's low-end 2200K "warm glow" when dimmed fully. But since everything else about these bulbs has been great so far, I'm sure they dim fine.

The only gotcha may be the lumens. These are down near 300, which is about as low as is classifiable in a 40W bulb. So in other words, these may look more like a 25-30W bulb in brightness. This is not a failure of the bulbs, though, but a fact that most LED bulbs are simply not as bright as their equivalent incandescent or CFL counterparts. Some people who are using 40W bulbs in those types of lights might find the 60W LEDs give the lumen output they really need. YMMV.

Best LED lightbulb I have found. It is the warmest LED bulb I have come across. While not quite as yellow and warm as an incandescent bult this still has enough of a warm quality to it that it is very pleaant. I will definitely be making this by go-to bulb until a warmer tone bulb is made. If you've been seeking an LED that has a warm color to it this is a good choice.

Great Bulbs - if They Survive Delivery

I have been trying to find an LED candelabra bulb that has the correct brightness and color. Too many LED light bulbs are too bright and / or too "white" for my application - an outside fixture with 4 bulbs. I am pleased to report that these are indeed the right color and right brightness. I do not have an issue with the gray writing on the white part of the bulb (where else would the product info go?)  I hope to purchase more of these bulbs in the future.

Perfect! I was hoping that this bulb would be a bit dimmer than the one I had before in my lamp; and it is. I had a 25 W equivalent LED in a lamp that I keep on at night (on a timer); and even that was too bright, so I found this bulb from GE and was hoping it would be a bit lower in intensity, which it is. It is really hard to find bulbs that are 15 W equivalents in LED; so I am glad GE makes this one. Thank you!!

This is the second LED bulb I have purchased for my home. The first was the 10 watt Philips L-Prize bulb for use in my bedroom, and while that bulb is great, it's also twice the price.

I purchased a pair of these to replace a pair of 40 watt globe incandescent bulbs in a fixture above a large mirror in the master bathroom of my home. This fixture has spots for a whopping 10 bulbs, but I only use two to save on electricity. Initially I was concerned that these wouldn't measure up to the light levels of the old incandescent bulbs, but I couldn't have been more wrong.

These bulbs are bright and, according to the spec, energy efficient. When they're glowing they remind me of the X-Box logo. One observation about them is that when you turn them off, they stay dimly lit for just a second or two before going completely dark, but it's hardly what I'd call a deal-breaker.

I tried these out on a fixture with a dimmer and they worked reasonably well there, but if you dim them all the way to off, you can't slowly dim them back up. You have to turn them all the way on then work your way back down. (This is the only reason they didn't get 5 stars from me).

Overall I'm very pleased with these bulbs. They disperse light in every direction, they are bright, they are affordable, and I even like the "X-Box" logo look when they're lit.

I got tired of standard filament bulbs blowing up.  I have eight working bulbs when I moved into my home.  Two were LED bulbs.  The other six started to go out one by one the next few months.  I relocated two other GU10 LED from another room.  So I had four LED bulbs for said room to do the job of the eight for more than six months.

I'm a light fanatic like a moth.  From car's headlight to every room in the house, I want brightness.  I like a correct temperature color to feed the right hue to the room or road.  Our eyes technically "like" the 4300K range and see it as brightest.  I believe the four I had were 3200K.  So they were had a yellow tint.

I found these 6000K daylight LED and immediately saved to wishlist.  I'm so glad I finally ordered them.  These 6000K make day and night difference (no pun intended).  My kitchen looks nicer and bigger! Install was simple.  They don't heat up crazy like standard filament bulbs.  I'll update if anything goes wrong.  But I'm still enjoying them.

Finally some decently priced dimmable LEDS with some serious lumens!

These are great bulbs, I use them in my kitchen to replace some high-end CFL's - they look great and use less power -  highly recommended.

I was happy with this LED candelabra bulb. There are not many candelabra base LED bulb to choose from. None that I know of will match a 60W incandescent. This one produced nice light. It is not as soft white as an incandescent. The dimming feature works but only to a level that is not especially dim. Of all the 40ish watt equivalent bulbs I've tried I found this one to be the best. I would recommend it with the caveat that it did not dim as well as an incandescent. It does produce as much or even a little more light than a 40W incandescent.

I've cycled thru several non-Philips LED choices, even ones with a 5-star amazon review. Bottom line is that to my eye, only the Philips branded bulbs come close to emulating the warm, yellowish light of incandescent bulbs. I'm very happy with this bulb, highly recommended.

I am really happy with this bulb.  I love LED Bulbs.  This one is no exception. It delivers the warm light I am looking for.  It saves energy and is long lasting.  I am currently replacing all the bulbs in my house with this bulb.  I recomend you do the same.

Finally, an LED bulb that's not dim! Plus it has a nice warm color, and dimsway down, to an amber just like incandescent. Side-by-side to incandescent, comparing the 60w bulbs, it was the same or maybe a little bit brighter, and the dimmed amber color was very close. The incandescent dims a little farther down, but not all that much.

As someone who did not receive these light bulbs for free or at a reduced price in exchange for a review, and who was concerned about the number of such reviews posted on this item in relatively short period of time, I wanted to make sure I posted a review of my own.

I can confirm that these are good quality LED bulbs. The packaging is very good and none of my bulbs (8) arrived damaged.  They function well, lighting instantly, and the color tone of the light is very pleasing, slightly whiter than a standard "soft" white bulb. They are also noticeably brighter than the incandescents I replaced. I plan to purchase at least 20 more to replace the other incandescent bulbs in my new home.

These "Warm Glow" LED bulbs from Philips are amazing. At long last, we now have an energy efficient bulb that emulates the comfort and warmth of a traditional incandescent 60W lightbulb. On my Leviton dimmers, there is no buzzing or flickering as the bulb is dimmed, and these have a slight "soft start" just like an incandescent gently coming on instead of the abrupt snap on/off of other LED bulbs. At full brightness these bulbs have an near-perfect incandescent color temperature - not even a hint of green/blue/pink cast common to other LEDs. Dimmed down, the bulb drifts towards a lovely candlelight color we're are familiar with. It is perfect for intimate dining or a bedside lamp. Color rendering is also very good giving natural looking flesh tones and depth to wood furnishing.

Downsides? If you currently have a fleet of standard non-Warm-Glow technology LED bulbs in your home, the incandescent look of these may clash against the stark white of your other dimmed LED bulbs. These bulbs are also not controllable via Philips Hue, but bring the impressive light quality of the Hue bulbs to conventional dimmer circuits. I'm starting to look towards Philips, now, as a leader in LED lighting that actually cares about the quality of the light.

The A19 LED filament bulb is the best LED bulb I found, I measured them with good results consistently as advertised, as 3.5Watts power drawing, same lumen/brightness as a 40W traditional bulb, and as warm color, and the best thing is the bulb is not even warm, saving lots of cooling energy in hot summers (the traditional was too hot to touch), I expect this bulb will last a very long time, other LEDs are much warmer and hot, and electronic components inside the bulb do not last with heat. I bought 15-bulbs, three not lit-up, vendor LED2020 replaced them with three good ones during busy holiday. At this point, I have these LED bulbs all over my house. I will buy this product from this vendor again, w/o 2nd thought.
Thanks to vendor LED2020.

I've been through the mill on testing MR16 LEDs for Halogen replacements in our kitchen.  The problem we have is that we have like 30 bulbs to replace.  So I wanted a bulb we could gradually swap out for LEDs over time without noticing a big change in the light.  All the other bulbs we tested were too white, too dim, too narrow, too pink.. except these.

Let me just say, THESE ROCK.  They are near perfect.  In fact the only thing that seems different is they lack pink which the halogens tend to contain.  I don't mind that and don't notice.  If you do the white paper test under the lights and compare existing halogens to these, the light is almost identical, if not (in my opinion) better.

I have not testing them on a dimmer - but that will be my next test.

I felt it was worth writing a review for these bulbs as I searched everywhere to find something that looked good and worked as the original bulb in my Dacor Hood.  For anybody that has pulled their bulbs out of a Dacor hood, you immediately notice that this is a very unique bulb.  My specific hood is a 48" with fully variable lights and fan.

The bulbs produce a crisp white, I would say around 3000k.  I prefer the color to the original bulbs.  These bulbs are made very well.  The housing seems to be aluminum but is finished well enough that it looks nice next to the stainless steel of the Dacor hood.  The biggest thing is these bulbs are truly dimmable, better so than any other claimed dimmable led bulb I have had.

The three pictures show the light off, the light on, and a broad picture of the light color.

Even though $30 is expensive for two bulbs, it is worth it.

Finally!  A truly dimmable LED bulb, no humming or flickering even with my dimmer (not LED specific).  Good price, nice warm color.
