Back in 2013 CREE was advertising LED bulbs with 10 year warranty (free replacement!!), I bought about 2 dozen bulbs, and got rid of the all of the 130 volt incandescent bulbs. Over the years, I have replaced (for FREE) 3 or 4 bulbs. As noted above, I have lots of hours on these bulbs, and are very happy with them. As far as I know CREE no longer is in the household bulb business, and the quality of the bulbs from the big box stores has improved significantly. Many are on dimmers, and i do not recall having a personal problems with compatibility, but I have seen neighbors with problems, so I always buy LEDs that state they can be dimmed.
