LavaThe Original Lamp - 14.5'' Vinyl Record Grooved Base - Classic Liquid Motion Lamp - Yellow and Blue Liquid - Item #2020 (Amazon Exclusive)

Fantastic! Lamp arrived well packaged and in perfect condition. Liquid was clear and lava motion is outstanding right from the first cycle. The color contrast between the lava and the liquid is excellent - the lava is very bright against the darker liquid.The cap and base are also really nice - cool texture with the grooved surface.Great lamp that is working very, very well. Very happy!

That’s an amazing lava lamp. I wanted one since I was a kid, then at some point forgot about it and just yesterday saw this product. Purchased immediately. Great packaging, great lamp itself, amazing quality. Only thing you should know about that: it must work for a couple hours first time you turn it on, so wax can melt and start moving - that’s how all they work!

Not sure if I got a dud or what, but similar to another reviewer the lava (aka the melted wax) stopped melting after a few days. Most of it stays as a blob at the bottom of the lamp and a small bit stays at the very top of the lamp. Even after a few hours where the base & glass is hot (so I know the light bulb is working correctly), the wax doesn't flow at all and stays at the bottom. This is disappointing since it was a gift and the recipient really really liked it. I'm returning it for a replacement of the same item since it was so well received and I'm keeping my fingers crossed the new one will work better. But I'm not holding my breath.

Really cool design and fairly large, I’m really happy about this purchase

Cool, but the cheap bulb that came with it burned out within 20 minutes

Mesmerizing! I've wanted a Lava Lamp for 50 years and finally bought one and so glad I did. Works great. It's slow to get going. Just give it time.

Perfect to accent my studio backdrop.

I am reviewing this as if it is all colors of lava lamps. The reason for this is that I have purchased 6 or 7 of these over the last 20 years. I will get to that portion of the review after this paragraph...but first.........I received this particular lamp last week and it is the first lamp of the 6 or 7 I've purchased over the years (since the early 2000s) that came without cloudy liquid! It works perfectly and it looks beautiful. The one thing I will say is that the orange liquid really is not orange. It's yellow. No biggie, I like the black vinyl inspired base and cap as I am a vinyl collector.Now onto the rest of the review. I am giving Lava Lamps as a whole 2 stars. Here is why:The vast majority of these lamps come cloudy. I haven't had issues with the light bulbs not working properly or arriving broken. I can only assume how annoying that is, but probably an easy fix just swapping out the bulb...still though, not something you should have to do when you're paying 30+ bucks for these. And I don't know what they did to the formula when they shipped manufacturing overseas, but when I was younger I had one that was manufactured here in the States and I had a few friends with them. You could also go to Spencer's Gifts and see these things all fired up over there...there were zero cloudy lamps. All of them worked perfectly unless you had somebody shake them up.That being said....Thankfully there are people out there that have found solutions to these clouds...there are ways to fix the lamps. So instead of many multiple returns/exchanges, as a DIYer I just fix the problem, but would rather not have had to go this route. So buyers beware! It is going to be hit or miss when you purchase one of these. You might get a good one....you probably won't. Maybe I'm wrong, but unless you like cloudy lava lamps, you're probably going to be disappointed. And with all the reviews I'm seeing from people that had to deal with broken bulbs...maybe have some extras on hand just to be safe(?)...though like I said, I've never had those issues.
