  This lamp is a good choice if:

The color rendering is very similar to incandescent. I have golden-colored walls and most fluorescents create an ugly green or purple cast on them. These bulbs still aren't quite as nice as incandescent, but they're close enough that you probably wouldn't notice the difference unless doing an A/B comparison. The other common annoyance many CFL's have is slow... more info
