This review is from: DDI Ecosmart 4 Pk 14 Watt (60 W) Soft White CFL Bulbs
I have order these bulbs 4 times now since I kept finding places where I could use them. I replaced 60W clear standard light bulbs with these. They come on instantly with light that is only slightly brighter than the ones I replaced. These bulbs are a great color match to the ones I am replacing. Originally I bought the same brand daylight bulbs (5000k daylight) thinking that I needed them to reproduce the light of the clear standard bulbs. But the daylight bulbs made my yellowish light fixures white since they are really "daylight" bright. The daylight bulbs are great in some areas since they are so bright (also instant on). Another reason I trust these bulbs is since they were rated highly in CR a while back and I used to get them at HmDepot before I found them here. Great product!!!

Best CFLs on the market, bar none,

This review is from: DDI Ecosmart 4 Pk 14 Watt (60 W) Soft White CFL Bulbs
The n:vision compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs, now sold under the EcoSmart brand name, are simply the best CFLs on the market today. The economic and environmental advantage of CFLs over incandescent, even taking into account the presence of mercury in the former, has been discussed many times over. As CFL prices have fallen significantly, aesthetics have remained the most common barrier to adoption. But the n:vision/EcoSmart Soft White CFL bulbs cast a warm, steady golden light, almost indistinguishable from that of an incandescent bulb. The color, brightness, silent operation, and lack of flickering make this bulb a true standout among CFLs. Note that the 14-Watt EcoSmart bulbs, while less bright than their 19-Watt big brothers (the two being equivalent to 60 and 75-Watt incandescents, respectively), brighten almost instantly; it is difficult to live with slow-to-warm bulbs after using the 60-Watt EcoSmarts. I probably sound like I've been paid to write all this gushing, but...Read more

Even though these bulbs are a little bit more expensive than other CFLs, they turn on instantly, and have the same warm color as regular 60 watt light bulbs, and they are just as bright. 1 out of my 4 lights flashes every now and then, but I just put it in an outside light, and it has not bothered me at all.
