How it compares in Light Bulbs
Across the 50 rated light bulbs products we track, the typical score is 4.6 out of 5. This one sits at 4.7, which puts it in the upper quarter of the category rather than level with it. Where almost everything is rated well, the gap at the top is small in points and large in practice. That places it first of the 50 we rank here.
It carries 2,615 ratings against a category median of 2,453. That is enough of a base to take the score seriously without treating it as settled.
On price it sits in the upper third of a category running from £3.99 to £49.99, where the midpoint is about £11.77. Paying above the category norm needs a reason beyond the rating, because the score alone does not justify the gap here.
