Save your money, find something else.
This review will most likely get buried, but here goes. I purchased these bulbs several months ago as a replacement set for two ceiling fans. I needed a set of bulbs that lasted longer than the standard incandescent E12 bulbs we had been putting in our ceiling fans. Since the fans sit up pretty high, it's rather difficult to change bulbs, so we opted for these LEDs.Things went well for the few months, but after having them for about five months, they started to flicker. At first I thought it was bad wiring in one of our fans, but then I got flickering in the other ceiling fan I had put these bulbs in. Finally one of the bulbs went bad, followed shortly by another, and another, and another.When I purchased the bulbs, two packs of 6, I had plenty of spare bulbs. We are now down to our last Sunthin bulb and don't plan on buying new ones. The amount of money we've spent on bulbs, and the ones to replace the bad Sunthin bulbs, we've probably cancelled out what we hoped to save. These things are cheaply made and I highly recommend finding a different manufacturer.

Quick to burn out and not warm AT ALL.
Do yourselves a favor and find some different bulbs.The first obvious problem with these lights is how blue the color temperature is. They're not warm at all. I still have incandescent bulbs in the room adjacent to where I installed these LED bulbs and the difference is like night and day. These have a very cold and unpleasant light. You get used to it if they're the only lights turned on, but there is no way the advertised color temperature is even close to the true temp.Lifespan is the other major problem. I've only been running these bulbs intermittently for about 1 month and one bulb has already burned out. It started flickering a few days ago and today it started emitting a high pitched whine/buzz as it burned out (and continued whining/buzzing after it stopped emitting light).The attached photo shows what one looks like after it burns out; some yellow chemical gets spattered across the inside of the bulb. The bulb itself is not pressurized or sealed off from the room, so it makes me wonder if I'm breathing vapors of whatever mystery chemical this is as I write this review.I'll update this review as more bulbs burn out, which I am sure will be soon.

I Can See Clearly Now
These were the first LED lights that I've purchased. I replaced the incandescent lights in my bathroom vanity, which seemed to only last 6 months or less. Immediately these were brighter. Which is good in the bathroom for shaving and such.Just make sure you measure your vanity correctly. I was slightly off on my measurement and I couldn't replace my cover. Not that big of an issue for me since these lights have a decorative quality to them with the chrome base and frosted globes. They look like they were designed to match my base.Update August 2016: 3 of the 6 lights are now blinking on and off. That's a 50% fail rate in 7 months. My goal was to get longer lasting lights to save money over replacing the incandescent lights every 6 months.

Good bulbs, color is a little reddish
These candelabra base bulbs were impossible to find in LED in my area. These were to replace the original incands that came with my ceiling fan. I have no idea why the fan manufacturer would use this base style on a fixture that most would probably want at lease 240 watts of light out of. Nevertheless, these fit perfectly. The light is slightly redder than other LEDs in my house. I would like them in a more neutral color.

Great bulbs for a great value! Exactly what I needed for my candleabra base ceiling fan bulb replacement!
These bulbs are excellent thus far and just what I needed to replace the old incandescent ceiling fan bulbs. My local big box retail and home improvement stores only had the choice of incandescent or CFL to replace the small, candelabra base bulbs required for most modern fans, so I took to Amazon and read many reviews before I found these. The reviews seemed mostly positive and so far. so good. They're plenty bright -- but not sickeningly over-bright or too white/unnatural like many of the value LED bulbs tend to be. They seemed very-well made/constructed for the price and I have a good feeling they'll do the job fine!

rather cool and blue
The light is too blue. That is the basic complaint I have. Too blue when all the other LED lights I have in my home have a softer, warmer glow these are harsh and cold. however, they are the only bulbs I have found that fix the smaller fixture, but be aware that the light is not warm, rather cool and blue. But I kept them.

Superior to incandescents by far...
Just installed these in our bathroom mirror cabinet to replace the common vanity bulbs. These are fantastic! They are just as bright as their incandescent predecessors and have an almost identical color. The size of these bulbs is perfect. The length is about 1/4 inch shorter than the previous bulbs and are about 1/4 inch narrower but are even more attractive. Now, I'll have to see how long they will last since it seemed I was always replacing the incandescent type. These cost about twice as much , but if they last at least twice as long, I'll be a happy camper.

5 out of 6 are great
I'm glad that my LED bulbs came as a set of 6 because I needed five and one of them ended up not working. It's really not worth sending anything back, and the balls look good, so I will keep them a lesson learned.
