Title: Many problems with this lamp
Product review: I bought one of these lamps and unfortunatley it's been nothing but problems. The first one I had took longer and longer for the light to come on when you turned on the switch until it eventually took like 10-15 minutes before it would light up.GE was very good about replacing the lamp. However, the same thing happened to the second lamp . . . and then the third. I have had three new lamps in the last year. I just received the fourth today from GE. It seems like there's some kind of design/engineering problem with the lamp. It's not that the bulbs are burning out, it seems to have more to do with the floruescent balast, but I'm no engineer, so I don't really know.What I can say is that the lamp is bright, the color of the light is very white (not yellow like some flourescent bulbs) and it's very energy efficient (55w for 300w of light).I can only hope that this one does last a little longer than the first three I've had!
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
