Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of GE 40184 Energy Smart 55-Watt 2-D Compact Fluorescent Bulb, 250-Watt Replacement
Customer Review: 55 WATT 2-D FLUORESCENT BULB
Summary: 4 Stars
Well packaged and arrived in good shape. It took about 2 weeks to get using standard shipping. The bulb fits and is much brighter although it takes several seconds to warm up before full glow. Only problem is my tochiere floor lamp on/off knob has to be in specific position to turn on the bulb. That was not an issue before I got this new bulb, so either the lamp developed a problem or the bulb was not an exact replacement for the previous bulb.Customer Review: Replacement Bulb
Summary: 4 Stars
Great replacement bulb at a great price. Daylight is much brighter than even original bulb. No issues with packaging. Will replace all in my home.Customer Review: Safer Way to Buy
Summary: 3 Stars
After reading the negative reviews of these sellers, I went back to the Energy Federation site where I bought my torchiere lamp. They can be found at EFI dot org and delivered me a genuine GE bulb that was identical to the one that came with my lamp. The price was about the same as these folks and it arrived in two days. If anything, it was over packed with lots of popcorn. It can be found with the pin-based lamps under the consumer division online shopping.Customer Review: Slow Customer Support

Bulb arrived on delivery date, 5/4/06, but arrived with just paper packing around it.The bulb arrived broken. I called Home & Beyond, the customer service rep was friendly,& apologized for the problem, and said they would send a replacement right out. Well, after waiting I called this past Wed.(tried last weekend but couldn't get through,just got voice mail to leave a message & they'd call back, but I couldn't even do that as the message box was full))& the rep told me it was just ordered and they should have it Thurs.& shp in a couple of days.I then mentioned that eventhough I had needed the bulb,I could then figure on receiving the new one in about 2 wks, & he said no, sometime next week. When I first ordered this I got an email telling me the item was shipped, as of yet I still don't have one, so I guess I was right, it will be at least 2wks, a little rediculious I must say, since I first ordered this @ the ended of April!! I will most likely not deal with Home & Beyond again and do not recommend them due to this experience.Customer Review: Terrible reliability
Summary: 2 Stars
Bought this bulb and it worked great... for 35 days. After the 35th day it burnt out and doesn't work any more. Maybe I got the oddball lemon but buyer beware. This is not a quality product.
Amazon's return policy is 30 days but their excellent customer service offered to replace the bulb for free. For that I will give this product one extra star. Thanks Amazon!
