SooFoo Appliance Light Bulb

Review:

I needed a replacement light bulb for my oven.  I bought a GE 40 watt appliance bulb from Ace Hardware, but that bulb burned out within 2 days.  I thought that must have been a fluke, so I bought a second GE 40 watt appliance bulb, but the same thing happened.  I did handle the GE bulbs with nitrile gloves, so I didn’t leave skin oil on them causing them to burn out prematurely.

Frustrated, I looked on Amazon and found the SooFoo appliance light bulbs.  I ordered them.  They have 300 degrees Centigrade printed on the bulb (572 degrees Fahrenheit).  They come in a package of 4 bulbs for $12 ($3 per bulb).  I installed one several months ago and it has been working since then. The bulb even survived the 3-hour high-temperature oven self-cleaning cycle (as it should). I have no idea what the problem was with the GE bulbs but I am glad to have a functioning bulb in my oven.
