I can not recommend any Tensor or Catalina lighting product due to their horrendous customer service! If you attempt to contact them about a warranty issue, they promise they will take care of it, but they never send you the paperwork necessary to process the return.When I called their customer service department in Canada to complain, they got extremely nasty saying "its only a light" and "I do not get paid enough to deal with these problems" In summary I believe that Catalina/ Tensor products are poorly made, and the company does not stand behind its products

I bought two Tensor floor lamps which had Mica-like lamp heads. I used only the specified 50-100-150 single bulbs. We noticed a smell and hint of smoke and discovered that the bulb was melting and had blackened the lamp head. We had a hard time finding how to contact Catalina Lighting (no phone number) but finally contacted the customer rep. After many days, they acknowledge the issue (sent them pictures) but will no longer respond. We complained to the South Florida BBB but they already have may complaints against them and never respond (according to the BBB). My opinion, it the products say Tensor or Catalina Lighting, move on to another product that won't catch fire and with a vendor that will stand behind their products!

I purchased this and 8 other Robert Abbey lamps a few years back on uber-clearance for just under $300 TOTAL. I have mixed style tastes but generally go toward classic as opposed to modern but I love these lamps. They are large, have a built-in dimmer, haven't tarnished (5 years later) and are simple to clean. I have 4 of these in nickel--3 short and 1 floor. I also purchased the brass options for another home with a different style. I also have 2 of the black gourd lamps. I happen to love Robert Abbey after scoring on product. I can now appreciate a nice lamp also.

I got my lamp this morning and am so very pleased! The picture is good but it's even nicer in actuality! Aside from it's beauty, this lamp is well crafted and was very easy to assemble. This product came with the light bulbs included which is always a big plus for me. It was very well packaged and all components needed were included plus an extra screw fitting which I appreciate. The best part of course was upon plugging it in: it works perfectly as I expected it to and puts out just the amount of light I wanted. It has three levels of of light with just a light touch on any of the metal surfaces, again just what I wanted and expected. It works great on my beside table which is what I ordered it for although some folks might like it elsewhere as it's not a small lamp. (If you note the dimensions from the description and measure it out as I did, you will have a very good idea of the actual size.)

Back to the beauty of it, when in use the etched flowers have a subtle sparkling effect to them which just enhances the elegance of this lamp. Truly pleased with my purchase of this lamp!

This is a quite nice small lamp, well constructed and of pleasingly modern design. I use it to light a small, two person dining table in an otherwise dark corner of the room. It provides lots of light, yet does not dazzle the eyes. It would be good, singly or in pairs, on a hall table or sideboard. It is controlled by a switch on the cord, which might be a problem in some locations.

The pictures represent the lamps accurately.

The lamps worked fine.

They were well packaged and arrived in good condition. In fact, it was kind of a pain to get them out of the box. All the Styrofoam pieces are taped together inside the box, so removing the lamps produced a bunch of static-clingy Styrofoam snow.

Shipping was timely. They were delivered one week after the order was placed.

Philips 424895 10.5-watt A19 LED Household Bright White Light Bulb Reviews

Philips 424895 10.5-watt A19 LED Household Bright White Light Bulb, 2-Pack
Customer Ratings: 3.5 stars
Buy Now
I purchased a number of different LED lights to compare, including this 10.5W Philips LED. It seems like almost every LED light has some limitations and works better in certain scenarios than others. I personally found this little light to be quite versatile though. Its main limitations are:

1) It cannot be used with a dimmer. Most of my lights are not on dimmer switches anyway, so this wasn't a significant limitation for me.

2) It is somewhat directional, as it directs more light away from the base and somewhat less light to the sides (though it's not as directional as some other LEDs I have tried). One thing to be mindful of is that it may look a little funny in certain scenarios (e.g. when inside of a globe fixture that you want illuminated evenly in all directions). In those types of scenarios, it may be better to go with a light like the Philips 424382 11-Watt A19 LED Household Soft White Light Bulb, Dimmable (which is a light that has neither of these limitations).

With those limitations stated, there are many things I do like about this little light.

1) It puts out a lot of light supposedly equivalent to a 60W light bulb, though I think it looks brighter.

2) It's small and doesn't put out much heat. Many LED bulbs that I purchased are somewhat large and put out lots of heat. This is the smallest light of the 5 types that I bought and actually slightly smaller than a standard incandescent bulb.

3) It's quite efficient at 10.5W, and it has a good Color Rendering Index (rated at 80).

4) It comes on instantly when you turn on the light switch. Half the LEDs that I've purchased have about a 1/2 second delay when you turn on the light switch (which makes me second guess whether I hit the right switch sometimes), but not this one.

5) It has a 6 year warranty. Some other LED brands have much shorter warranties. If I'm paying this much for a light bulb, I want a good warranty.

6) For an LED light, it's pretty reasonably priced at this time.

Some final thoughts: This light bulb has a color temperature rating of 3000K. Incandescent bulbs are around 2700K. So, this light will look a little "whiter" than a standard incandescent bulb. Whether you like or dislike this is largely a matter of preference. I generally like the color.

I have one of these bulbs mounted pointing upward in a lamp fixture that directs light towards the ceiling in a room with tan-colored walls. Items in this room and skin tones look natural to me. I have another bulb mounted pointing downward in a ceiling globe in a room with baby blue walls. I feel like skin tones in this room look a little off to me. That's my subjective opinion though.

I generally like this light and will find uses for it in many fixtures in my house.

I generally think this is an AMAZING price for this product. I would preface it by saying that the color temperature of these lights are 3000K! This looks (in my unprofessional opinion) like 5000K or "daylight" CFLs. I enjoy the 2850K GE Reveal light bulbs and I really like the L Prize 2700K from Philips compared to these 3000K ones, but they are half the price. Be very aware that this is 3000K, I believe 3000K looks really nice in the bathroom / tiled room, but somewhat off putting on its own. I use a combination of the L Prize 2700K and 3000K in my apartment (12 bulbs = 10_3000K 2_2700K) and it really works for me. If you are used to "daylight" CFLs, go for these ASAP as they use a lot less energy and are suitable for rapid on/off.

//Not sure if Amazon will delete this, but I paid ~$27 for a 2-pack at HomeDepot [if you delete, please just change to "Other Retailer"] for these, which is by far the cheapest I have seen LED lightbulbs so far. These are NOT rated for closed light fixtures, but I put them in there anyway just to see how fast they would degrade (Hoping to upgrade to newer LEDs as the tech evolves).

Economics:

$14 per bulb @ 10.5 Watt vs 60 Watt. ~ 83% lighting energy savings.

Long rated life and rapid on/off makes this a no-brainer for bathroom application.

Style:

Color Temperature of 3000K much worse than 2850K or 2700K.

Beautiful Spherical Incandescent Style (vs. buglight LED design or nasty coil CFLs)

Performance:

Enclosed Fixture (TBD) So far, glass is barely warm to the touch, seems fine to me. Even if it loses its life in 3 years vs its ridiculous 18 year rated life, I will be perfectly happy. Plus I want the new color changing LED tech from Philips Hue and LIFX in the future anyway.

Cheap ceiling facing IKEA lamps seems to run as cool as my L Prize 2700K bulb, although I have no fears for the L Prize since it is torture test rated by the US Department of Energy.

Brightness:

800 Lumens means nothing to me, I think you need at least 4 of these lights to really brighten up a room (~300 sqft).

Tips for Philips:

Please explain the difference in manufacturing process vs. the L Prize bulbs. Is the only difference color temp & these are made in China (vs. L Prize made in USA)?

4 stars for being the cheapest LEDs around.

Best Deals for Philips 424895 10.5-watt A19 LED Household Bright White Light Bulb

There are a lot of different LED bulbs out there and the differences are not captured well by comparing lumens and color temperatures. The key attribute to these is they are a little short and their light comes from a half sphere at the top. This dome is evenly lit but bright enough you still don't want to look at it directly. Relatively little light goes down toward the base while much more goes up. This orientation makes it nice for a fixture pointed at the ceiling as more light spreads through the room and less gets caught up in the lamp shade. Other bulbs send more light to the sides.

These bulbs do not dim but are slightly more power efficient than bulbs that do. LED efficiencies are high enough this difference is more a matter of how hot they become than how much money you spend. All are expensive to buy and cheap to power while these are just a bit cooler.

I like the 3000 color temperature. To my eye the tungsten 2700 is a bit long on yellow, 5000 daylight is harsh, 3000 just right. Still, there isn't an awful lot of difference between 2700 and 3000. I remain puzzled by my own reaction to 5000 bulbs despite having confirmed their color balance is indeed similar to natural light coming in a window. I like the natural light and dislike the daylight bulbs, not clear why.

Pick these if you want the light in an even top dome of 180 degrees and don't need dimming.

Honest reviews on Philips 424895 10.5-watt A19 LED Household Bright White Light Bulb

Two of my outdoor 14 watt CFLs burned out. So I replaced them with these Phillips LED bulbs. I was not sure how well they would work, but they ended up working great and have the same brightness as my 14w CFLs.

Phillips usually puts accurate information on their lighting products (unlike many other bulb manufacturers). These are 3000k color temperature. Don't confuse color temperature (kelvin) with brightness (lumen). Incandescent bulbs are usually about 2700k, where daylight is 5000-5500k which is a true white light. That spaceship blue light you typically see with LEDs is about 6000k and above. 6000k is not anywhere near a natural light color.

A 60 watt incandescent bulb relates to the brightness (lumen) of a 14w CFL bulb. LED wattage does not have a direct lumen comparison to incandescent or CFL bulbs because the light emitting diodes in LED bulbs come in many different variations. The lumen scale is the proper way to judge brightness between all of them. Here is a chart for comparison:

40 watt incandescent = about 450 lumens

60 watt incandescent = about 800 lumens

75 watt incandescent = about 1,100 lumens

14 watt CFL = about 800 lumens

15 watt CFL = about 830 lumens

This Phillips (424895) 10.5 watt LED bulb = 800 lumens (180 degree light spread)

Phillips (409904) 12.5 watt LED bulb = 800 lumens (330 degree light spread)

Phillips (423244) 10.5 watt L-Prize LED bulb = 940 lumens (330 degree light spread, close to 70 watt incandescent equivalent)

At the time of this writing, a 10.5 watt LED that puts out 800 lumens, like this bulb does, is pretty darn good.

I am not sure if these bulbs are rated for outdoor use, but I have them installed outdoors where my non-outdoor rated compact florescent light (CFL) bulbs were installed. Both the CFLs and this LED light have worked great in our northern temperature ranges of 90 degrees to -3 degrees Fahrenheit. We also have high humidity.

I have these bulbs set up on an automatic timer switch. It leaves the lights on for about 9 hours a night for 7 days a week. Even in the cold, they light-up instantaneously; where the CFLs needed about 15 minutes to get at full brightness. My CFLs lasted for 4 years in this environment, so I hope these LED bulbs will last for 6 to 7 years.

The size of this LED bulb is perfect as an incandescent replacement because it is the same size.

The only negative I have about these bulbs is the narrow spread of light. Because of the long base, it leaves only half of a dome to disperse light to only about a 180 degree angle. I would prefer a 300 degree spread to shed more light around the area. If you want a greater dispersion of light, then get the other kind of Phillips bulbs since they are designed with more rounded domes:

Philips 409904 / 423343 Dimmable AmbientLED 12.5-Watt A19 Light Bulb

Philips 423244 10-Watt 60-Watt L-Prize Award Winning LED Light Bulb

I bought these on sale for about $27 a pair, so I am very happy with them for the price. I really like their performance in my outdoor setting, so I will buy more for the other fixtures.

I would have given it five stars if it had a wider spread of light. 4.5 stars is more appropriate.

I purchased 2 of these lamps under the name Earth Fair on Amazon.

Later, I learned this product comes from the company named "East Enterprise"

The product description says the shade comes in White or Cream color. However, there is not a choice to be made at the end of check out process. I got the cream color when I received the lamps in 14 days. I don't mind but not sure how can a buyer get the white shade.

The lamps were very well packaged. However, one of the base is broken after opening. The broken pieces were still inside the wrapping material. I suspect, the damage occurred long ago. No one inspected item before shipping it to the buyer. I am just unlucky. A month later, I eventually got a replacement.

I rate two star because of the quality of the product.

I like porcelain, but this product was cheaply made in China. Mass production. Poor workmanship. Americans pay the high price.

I bought two lamps. One is 1 inch taller than the other. One is dark blue. The other is light blue. Now, I have to live with difference.

The lamp base looks like wood but it is made of plastic. A $40-dollar lamp base in Walmart is made of wood. You get my point. I carefully inspected both lamps. Because I have two of them to compare, I learned that one lamp missing a washer at the base. The other one does not have the foam cushion between the plastic base and the porcelain bottle. This indicates poor quality inspection at the assembly line in China.

Please do not be discouraged reading my product review. I just provide you with facts.

You should still take your chances. Life is full of surprises.

I love this lamp for my coastal style guest bedroom. BUT...the delivery was an issue. I ordered two lamps and one globe was broken. It wasn't packed too well. So, the company (not Amazon) sent us another one right a way. It was packed differently so it wasn't broken BUT the lamp didn't work then it was plugged in. Believe me, we tried everything from different light bulb to different sockets. So, again, we contact the company and was send out another one asap. Third one perfect!!! Caution...the color of the shade is deceiving in the picture. I thought was a standard linen shade but in person it's got a yellowish tint in it but it works out in my cottage style guest bedroom because we a little light yellow in the bedspread. It's really is a good buy!!!
