Feit Electric 18-Watt Compact Fluorescent Light Bulb, Daylight, 75-Watt Equivalent, 6-Pack

I can't say much positive about the cfl bulbs from FEIT. The light quality was what i expected from a cfl... not quite as good as a regular incandescent bulb, but decent. However, these bulbs DO NOT LAST, nor are they going to save you money. These cfl bulbs are supposed to "last 13 times longer than a standard 750 hour bulb." (That's printed right on the box the bulbs came in.) Frankly, I'd call it blatant misrepresentation and false advertising. They will cost you MORE, regardless of any energy savings. I bought two 6-pack boxes and put the 12 bulbs all through my house. As of this day, less than 2 years later, not ONE of the bulbs is still working. NOT ONE! Some of the bulbs (conservatively, i'd say 4 or 5, but i can't remember exactly) quit working within about 3-5 months. Most of them blew out within a year. A few actually lasted about 1 1/2 years. I have regular incandescent bulbs in other lights that have been working for as long as i've owned this house, which is 4 1/2 years...Read more

I have tried these bulb over the years with bad results.Not one of them has lasted more than a year. I also have tried their 4 pin bulbs with the same problems, a very short life. Feit are not reliable bulbs and shouldn't be purchased. Save your money

I liked the daylight coloration (bright white) but these bulbs just do not last. I date cfl's when I put them into a fixture. The one that came out today (8/6/2011) was put in on March 23, 2011. This fixture is generally turned on and used for hours at a time so the bulb was not subjected to a high number of on/off cycles. Two other bulbs are in the fixture -- one of a different brand and higher wattage was put in at the same time while another has been in the fixture much longer. I have been using cfl's for several years and Feit has not been a good source.
