We have purchased 4 of these bulbs and they last just a very short time. The glass bulb separates from the cap (male piece with threads and contacts) The glass bulb will end up falling into whatever you are heating as it appears the glue is low quality or assembled with a lack of... Please buy something else. We've wasted a lot of money for these that we can't use.

break so fast and dangerous. The wires come undone from the metal and have shocked several employees.

The lavex 250 watt red replacement infrared heat lamp is great replacement option at lower price than the brand name lamps. Seems to work just as well as the brand name

We brought two heat lamp bulbs for our food lamp warmer. We brought these as a spear in case the original ones blow out. We tried them and they look great.

These are the poorest quality heat lamp bulbs I have encountered in my life. We switched from a big-name brand to this brand two weeks ago, ordering 4 bulbs. The first two were installed for less than 5 days when they both burned out. The big-name bulbs lasted for 6 months! These bulbs aren't worth your time-- there is no point in saving two dollars if the bulbs are only going to last a few days (vs. a few months that they should last).

Thank you for your review, Lindsay J Moriarty! We are sorry this Lavex Janitorial 250 Watt Coated Infrared Heat Lamp Bulb has not worked well for you. A Customer Solutions Representative will contact you soon!

These lights are excellent for keeping food warm, and depending on what you are serving add a nice amount of color in a catering presentation. It deepens the red of beef, and adds a nice warm color to chicken.

Having the red color on a carving station is a nice touch to a buffet. I like having the coating on it. Long life too, and they don't break from a small accidental fall.

There are nothing with these bulbs. However, I prefer red infrared light before this bright white/yellow bulb as these 250 watts could be very bright in area that much light is not needed.

The bases have broken, three times! We've ordered these lights a couple time and the first one fell from the fixture, breaking at the base and sending pieces of the bulbs insulation into the food below. We replaced the light.. and it did it again - ruining more food. I was hoping that it was that 'box' or batch of lights.. ordered another set.. and now, it's done it a third time. Very frustrating to have a product like this that fails so unsafely. I can understand if a bulb burns out, etc.. but, these are FOR food service. They have a coating on the lens to ensure glass doesn't get into food items if the bulb were to break. And yet, the base fails dropping chars of hard insulation into the same food.

We appreciate your review, Jesse! We are sorry this lamp bulb did not meet your expectations. A Customer Solutions Representative will be contacting you shortly.

The Laxex Heat lamp bulbs put off enough heat, that's no problem. However after being used for several hours the glass bulb detaches from the metal base of the bulb. I wouldn't say this is a major issue, every heat lamp bulb I've ever bought has had the same issue, no matter what brand it is. I just wish we could find ones that are better made

Good product, I like the coating. We've had a few bulbs break in the past and when they shatter, you have to discard all the food underneath and it was a waste. Switched to these now.

We go thru a lot of bulbs for the french fry warmer. These hold up very well and the coating prevents glass break into the food.
