Nice but don't last long. by Thomas Frost  2 Stars
November 05, 2009
The seller was great but the bulbs left something to be desired.
I got them around September 4th 2009 and here it is November 4th 2009 and half of the bulbs are dead.
The package says they are 5 year bulb's well if so that 5 years just blew by.
I contacted GE about this but don't expect to hear anything back from them.
I would say stay away from these GE CF bulbs.

Bulbs not 100W equivalent by D. Claessens  1 Stars
October 12, 2009
These bulbs are not as bright as they claim. After switching to all CFLs I noticed right away that they were dim. This is compounded over time. My CFLs lost approximately 50% percent of their brightness in the first month. Before anyone questions this I should make you aware that this is the way fluorescent light bulb go out, they dim over time.
I have done research and found out the following:
1. Manufactures are overestimating the brightness of the bulbs.
2. Bulbs are approximately 50% dimmer then Incandescent equivalents.
EX: Incandescent 60W - 126 lux (126 lumen/square meter) CFL 12W ( 60W equivalent) - 77 lux (77 lumen/square meter) as measured by a light meter.
Don't get me wrong. I liked the idea of CFLs, longer life, lower electrical bills, and even though I am no tree hugger they are supposedly better for the environment.
But I now find myself buying more lamps to try to make the room bright enough to read. Does it really save energy if I replace one incandescent bulb with 10 CFLs?
Lets do the math.
1 x 60W bulb = 60W
10 x 13W CFL = 130W

Inexpensive CFL's by S. Bassaw (New York, NY)  4 Stars
October 03, 2009
I recently rehabbed a rental property. In the process, we replaced all the light fixtures with new ones. I needed bulbs for these fixtures. I ended up going with CFL's because they would be more efficient and I assume the tenants would appreciate it. These bulbs fit into all of the fixtures we installed. The bulbs were inexpensive. I purchased 4 packs (32 bulbs) for $50. The light quality is good and it doesn't have a very log start up time. It's almost instantaneously. If you're looking for quality, yet inexpensive CFL bulbs, this is the way to go.
