I bought one to see how it would look as a replacement for the 12 year old 40W incandescents on a chandelier. From the photos and description, I assumed it would be a candle shaped bulb, with a brass colored rings. What I recceived was a flame shaped bulb with a silver ring.
As for the bulb itself, the light comes on immediately, and it does have a warmish color. It's clearly whiter than the other bulbs when, but I doubt it will be very noticeable when all of them are replaced. It is a dimmable bulb, but for settings where you are going for a particular ambience, such as a cozy or romantic dinner, you probably won't like this bulb. In those kinds of situations, the color of the light gets much warmer as the light output goes down. In the case of these LED bulbs, while the light output does go down, the color stays the same color, and the color temperature definitely looks much cooler when the bulb is dimmed.
Since I always use the chandelier in the brightest setting, it works fine for me. I knocked off a star because the shape and the color of the ring around the base were not what I was expecting.
I just ordered nine more to replace the remaining bulbs. If they all look the same as the test bulb, they'll be fine, but if they're different, I'll update this review with some more negativity....
