I hear a lot of complaints about the short life of compact fluorescents. I have CFLs I bought over 25 years ago when they first came out that are still working. Of the at least 20 CFLs I've used over the past 25+ years, only four have failed. Two of those are ones I acquired in the past two years. The problem isn't that CFLs are inherently unreliable. The problem is some lousy manufacturers have entered the market. Like everything else, there are quality products and there are garbage on the market.
