Review: Blast from the past! - My daughter decided that she wanted a lava lamp for her 9th birthday - she saw that one of her classmates has one while they were having a "Zoom" school-day class (Coronavirus social distancing times!) and thought it was super cool. I picked this one based on the reviews and the price, and she loves pink and purple so the colors were perfect. It was packaged well, arrived intact, and works great! Yes, it does take a WHILE to get that lava going, but that's what happens with any lava lamp - the lava is wax and has to heat up to a "liquid" state, and it's just a small incandescent bulb in the base of the lamp that provides that heat, so of course it doesn't start up right away. But once it gets going... wow. When I was a super cool teen in the early 90s, groovy 60s and 70s stuff came back into pop-culture popularity, and I sooooo wanted a lava lamp but never got one (no one-click online shopping back in 1993! :) ) so now I sit with my kiddo and watch hers and oooh and aaahhhh over how cool it is. Maybe I'll just have to order one for myself!!! So: great price, great product, LOTS of fun!!
Review: Product works. Contrast isn't as striking as photos make believe IF LIGHT IN ROOM IS HIGH. Overall good purchase. - Two points: 1) In contrast to the 1-star reviews, this product works. Those who said the lava lamp doesn't work / doesn't get hot enough, etc, I just want to point out that, firstly, this product, and the bulb, are the same regardless of who buys it. Secondly, when I first turned it on, it seemed as though nothing was happening after 90 minutes or so, and I started 'freaking out' that omg I got one of the defective lava lamps. What I didn't bother noticing initially is that there's a metal coil inside the wax that needs to sit horizontally and transversely along the bottom, just above the bulb. If your wax is lopsided and you notice the coil (which you'll be able to see if you hold the glass bottle at different angles) is angled any way that is not completely flat with your desk, move the bottle around and reposition it. After I did this it worked just fine. Took about 2.5-3 hours on the first go before it started working. 2) The blue-orange contrast isn't as striking as the photos made it out to believe at first. I was doing homework in a brightly lit room at the time. Occasionally the orange wax at the bottom, just above the light, can get really bright, but as soon as it rises, it becomes a dark orange-black. This isn't a big deal, but just pointing it out because the appearance of the working product is OK, but not remotely close to 'oh wow, that's such a cool and gorgeous lamp.' Then I turned the lights low/off and the color contrast was more pronounced. I know this sounds obvious/dumb, but if you want it to look nice, it should be in low light. Otherwise the appearance is average. Overall I consider it a good purchase.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the percentage on the chances of getting a good juan?**
A: Juan, heat the milk and the butter together in a medium saucepan, until the butter melts. Remove from the heat and add them warm water, Juan. The mixture should be around 110° F (43° C). Bake in a preheated 350° F (175° C) oven for about 35 to 45 minutes. Then, Juan, remove from oven let cool slightly then brush the bread over the top (while still warm) with glaze. To make glaze, Juan: In a small saucepan combine the 1/4 cup sugar, orange juice and orange zest. Bring to a boil over medium heat and boil for 2 minutes. Brush over top of bread while still warm. Sprinkle glazed bread with white sugar. Juan.

**Q: Does it get very hot? Wondering about putting it in a child's room.**
A: Yes it gets pretty hot. We never turn ours off. Depending on how old your child is...you may not want to put it in their room.

**Q: The wax is described as "yellow", but it is mostly orange/red in the photo. Is the photo an accurate representation of the actual color?**
A: The color changes as the wax progresses up and down the lamp. It is yellow at the bottom, and orange/red at the top.

**Q: Do I need to open the bottle cap on the top? I'm afraid that it will blow up, and I see there is a bottle cap inside the top lampshade.**
A: No, don't open it

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reviews don't do the lamp justice.
*by Q***N on January 29, 2021*

If you're looking for a Lava lamp, but are afraid of wasting money on it due to the reviews, PLEASE keep reading! -This product is definitely worth a purchase!‐ I was extremely hesitant to buy online because of all the reviews stating that the lamp was defective in some way (broken bulb/glass, coil not working etc) but what made me want to try was another review expressing how to troubleshoot with the lamp in the case of it not doing what was expected out of it immediately. I really appreciate that reviewer and I hope this review will be worth the read for others who are on the fence but really want one. I received the package in fine condition, read the start up instructions (please read them!), and set up my lamp with no issues! Since it's cold where I live, I had to let the bottle warm to my bedrooms ambient temperature before turning on the lamp The lava process needs patience in order for it to work. The rest of the checklist was fine (coil was nestled in the right spot, bottle was not cloudy, bulb was packaged well and was intact.) After I turned on the lamp, it took about 5 hours for the wax to start "towering", and after a day, it was working perfectly. Now this is where ambient temperatures come into play for me. I have a bedroom that is either too warm or too cold. The instructions state that the lamp works best in a certain temperature range, that way the bottle can stay warm enough throughout the day to keep the wax melted as it flows to the top. I had turned my lamp off for 2 days when my area had a cold front move in, so my room got colder. The lava never settled to the bottom fully, so it was left in a "stalagmite" or lumpy shape for those 2 days because it didn't cool slow enough. I ran it for 3 days after, on and off like the instructions say to do, but it never melted the wax fully. I researched what I could do to fix it but since my coil was where it should be, I wasn't finding help online. (Last pic is an example of this problem.) I decided to take a risk and heat some water to a simmer (almost boiling), and poured the water into a seperate large container so I could gently melt the wax and warm the bottle without breaking the glass. It worked well enough, and it seems that the lava is working perfectly now! TL:DR - take the plunge and buy this lamp. If the product is not working as intended, customer service is here to troubleshoot or even replace your lamp (I didn't need to contact though) and if you follow the instructions as best you can, this lamp works just fine! Make sure to keep your room at a good temp and you shouldn't have the same issue as me. If you do, just heat the bottle back up in some hot water (like giving it a "bath" 😅) and it should solve the issue! Thanks for reading!
