Sylvania bulbs, through and through

Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2019

I must admit, after strong the unbelievable price of just over $1/bulb I was a bit skeptical. Especially after seeing one of the top reviews claiming they didn't actually receive the high quality Sylvania bulbs as the box so prominently displays.
Much to my relief however, not 1, but all 24 of the bulbs I received in my Sylvania box were in fact high quality Sylvania light bulbs!! As I swapped these remarkably high efficient sources of light out with the standard incandescent bulbs my house was ordered with I noticed that the new bulbs were actually brighter than their outdated counter parts. This was quite a pleasant surprise!

Fake Bulbs not Sylvania 24 pack

Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2018

the box is Sylvania but the bulbs don't have the logo of Sylvania printed I think that the bulbs are fake imitations inside a box of Sylvania

Please be advised that all of our light bulbs will have the Sylvania logo printed on the bulb or base.

Thank you,

Beware - these are NOT dimmable bulbs despite what the tech specs say

Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2019

Color: Soft WhiteSize: 4 PackVerified Purchase

I was disappointed to receive these bulbs today and read on the box that the bulbs are NOT dimmable, despite what the technical specifications say. They were not "counterfeit" as some reviewers had experienced, they are indeed Sylvania which is clearly marked at the base of the bulb, along with the fact they are made in China. The actual rounded bulb above the porcelain base is made of some sort of plastic where normally glass would be. Going to return them.

Doesn't look as high quality as the bulbs producted a few years ago

Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2020

Color: Soft WhiteSize: 24 Pack - 10 yrVerified Purchase

These does not look like the ones I brought a few years ago. The quality seems to have dropped. It looks more like replica product. The base is not made of ceramic to absorbs the heat, the older model does and the print on the base are just ink. The old bulbs had rised powder print on the base. In addition, the internal box that it came in didnt have any prints like the old ones. For me that is fine, save the earth. In terms of lighting the brightness and color matches the old ones. That is good. I will have to wait and see how long these will last. The old ones didnt last as long as it was advertised.

Please give me a thumbs up if this was helpful or appreciate that I spent time to provide a feedback.

Listing Description does not match product

Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2018

Color: Soft WhiteSize: 12 PackVerified Purchase

I purchased a 12 pack of these Sylvania 60 LED equivalent bulbs. There are listed on Amazon as a brightness of 800 Lumnes, which was important to me as I replace traditional light bulbs around the house. I trusted the Sylvania brand name as opposed to the competition no-name products that advertised the same 800 Lumens.
Per the listing:
- "this value pack comes with 12 bulbs, each with 800 lumens of light output at only 8.5 watts. "
- "it lights up instantly with a full 800 lumens of brightness "

Upon receipt of the order, the box says 750 Lumens, NOT 800 as listed in the description on Amazon. The individual bulbs also say 750 lumens, not 800.
There was another mistake in the listing in that the box & the individual bulbs say uses 8 watts, while the Amazon listing says 8.5 watts. This different in wattage was not a big issue for me, although the listing should state it correctly, but the Lumens difference does bother us.

I would never have purchased the bulbs had they correctly listed the lumens as 750, and not incorrectly as 800Lumens. I'm very disappointed in Sylvania for this misrepresentation. I expected more from a reputable name brand company that has been around for many, many years. Hopefully this was just a mistake with this product & the listings on their other products are correct.

Low power use and instant on! But they started to flicker after 2 months!!

Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2019

Color: Soft WhiteSize: 24 Pack - 10 yrVerified Purchase

I ordered these 60watt equivalent led bulbs to replace all my cfl bulbs in the house. These bulbs only use 8.5watts which is even less then the cfl bulbs. I think these are slightly brighter than the cfls and come on instantly versus a warm up on the cfl bulbs. The cfl looks as it gets dimmer as time goes on and they do not like the cold. These leds don’t have that problem.

update 11/28/19: I agree with other guy these are not high quality Slyvania. I have had these in a lamp that holds four and the matching lamp also. So it’s been a couple months and these lamps are hardly used and they all are flickering now. These are out of return window now so I have to throw out but slyvania should have a warranty longer than a month. I don’t think they will help but I can try. I am disappointed I changed all these bulbs and they are crap. I am changing my rating from five star.

Update: I checked the box these came in and it says there is a 3 year warranty, but it also says you have to bring it back to the store where you bought them. I have run into this before with Honeywell, they insist you return where you bought it. The thing is there is a month return window at amazon. There is a link to sylvania support and guess what it doesn’t work. I will have to search them out and get these bulbs back to them and see what happens.

They do not last 11,000 hours!

Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2020

Color: Soft WhiteSize: 24 Pack - 10 yrVerified Purchase

I have purchased several different makes of LED 60W equiv, non dimmable bulbs over the last couple of years. One thing I have noticed is that I seem to have to replace them frequently, maybe more than an incandescent!
I purchased these bulbs in October 2019, I installed one in an outside light which is never switched off. It stopped working 5/30/2020. So it stayed lit for approx. 5,000 hours, that is less than 50% of what they claim it will last.
Warranty is 30 days, really?

I figured buying a brand name would provide better reliability over the cheap Chinese products, don't waste your money, buy the cheapest you can, they all fail well before the stated longevity.

Bad Quality Light Bulbs

Put five of these light bulbs in around the house, within a month two stopped working already even though LEDs are supposed to last forever. Would not recommend.

Do Not Buy these bulbs!

Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2020

Color: Soft WhiteSize: 24 Pack - 10 yrVerified Purchase

We purchased a case of these SYLVANIA General Lighting 74765 A19 Efficient 8.5W Soft White 2700K 60W Equivalent A29 LED Lights and it has been the worst purchase of any LED bulb I have purchased in the past.
These bulbs seem fine at first, but a short time later the bulb will lose almost all light output becoming very dim and then some will flicker and die to nothing, while others will simply die.
We have 3 fixtures, each of them accept 2 bulbs. We purchased this case of bulbs specifically for these fixtures, thinking a whole case would do us for years and years. Here we are a year or so later and we have already gone through all of these bulbs.
To sum things up; Bulbs become very dim shortly after placing them into service, and once they become dim they will fail shortly afterwards.
Voltage has been checked and we have a constant supply of 112volts with no fluctuations and there is nothing wrong with out fixtures.
BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!

Inaccurate description - NON DIMMABLE

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2019

Color: Soft WhiteSize: 4 PackVerified Purchase

Inaccurate description. Was looking specifically for dimmable bulbs. Description states the bulbs are dimmable but they are not. Buyer beware. There is also a lot of reviews talking about cheap imitations packaged in Sylvania box trying to pass them off as genuine.

Cheap junk - as in too junk to be worth the cheap

Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2020

Color: DaylightSize: 24 Pack - 10 yrVerified Purchase

These are the worst LED bulbs I've ever owned, and that's even compared to the ones that were on special at Goodwill. We've had these less than a year, and most of them are in locations where they're off more than on (closet, bathroom, etc), and about a third of them have already gone bad. The work for awhile, then start to flicker (annoying and somewhat painful on the eyes) until they eventually just quit working altogether. LED's, especially simple incandescent replacements like this, should be good for close to 50,000 hours (which is 5.7 YEARS of constantly on 24/7), and these haven't lasted 500 hours (some of them maybe not even 50 hours).

They are decently bright - not obnoxious, but just about right for general household use. However, they're only 2,700K, so they are still the yellow color of old incandescent bulbs. Some people might like that, but we don't. They're very yellow...when they're working.
