<p>Yes Jonas, true. But even the new ones get crappy looking after only a few runs. I had one I ran twice and it got all kinds of gunk in the coil. Not even sure how that's possible. I don't have the ability to run mine (the new ones) 12-hour days and by the time they are problematic, I haven't even run them 20 times.</p>

<p>Erin, even with 90s formulae, it's recommended not to run them for more than 8 hours at a time. Is it possible that the Spencers ones look a bit worse than they are because they get run 12 hours a day, 7 days a week, and probably get manhandled a lot?</p>

<p>I bought the teal one, was not very good, reminded me of the deepest part of a murky lake..lol the liquid was clear but the light was dark, did not look that good, returned it few days later</p>

<p>Every time I go to the mall I still check out the lava lamps are Spencers and I agree with Erin. They end up looking awful after a while. I'd avoid them. I did see a nice silver one with some kind of flake paint job that I liked. However if I were to buy it I'd just be buying it for the base and cap.</p>

<p>I hate to be such a downer, but I don't like seeing people waste their money. I think people need to know what to expect when they buy these lamps. </p>

<p>They can look quite stunning early on. But taking one look at the display at my local Spencer’s told me I should steer clear. They looked horrible. My point is that early on, a lot of them look great. After 20 or so runs and that’s when you’ll see problems.</p>

<p>My friend just purchased a peacock 52oz lamp from a local spencers. The paint job was pretty darn nice and even though it takes forever to warm up, once warm, it flows pretty nicely for a new lamp. Not just one blob up and down. Even gets a little snotty at times. I wonder if they changed something.</p>
<p></p>
<p>It can also be very hit and miss, maybe he just got a good one.</p>

<p>I wouldn't bother. Most of the lamps I've bought from there will have one of several problems in a short amount of time: gunk in the wax after a few runs, poor flow, lava stuck to the glass around the top/bottom of the globe, lots of pinholes in the glass globe...</p>
<p></p>
<p>If you're not that picky and don't mind some of the flaws mentioned above, go for it. If you want something that will last and look good in a few years, I'd save your money.</p>
