So this morning I decided to hit up a local garage sale, and I almost passed this by thinking it was just a generic Chinese made lamp. Boy am I glad I decided to lift up the cap to double check.When…Continue

So, I am still rather new to lava lamps, and unfortunately all that I currently have are Chinese lamps from both Lifespan and Schylling.  But I wanted to add a large lamp to my collection, and the…Continue

So, I know that the older Lifespan Brands lamps are well, not very good...but how are the new Schylling lamps in comparison?  I just purchased a rather nice looking (imo) 16.3 from Spencer's online…Continue

Cool Garage Sale Find

So this morning I decided to hit up a local garage sale, and I almost passed this by thinking it was just a generic Chinese made lamp. Boy am I glad I decided to lift up the cap to double check.When I saw that old Lava Lite logo, I immediately handed them the $10 they were asking for it. Haven't had a chance to warm it up yet, but boy am I excited.See More

"I second what KittenChops said. I have (2) 52oz, one of them had poor flow, really slow, and only 1 massive blob would rise and fall at a time the other was a little cloudy. The cloudy one's flow was good just not perfect with regards to fluid…"

"I actually redid the 52 oz lamp I mentioned. It was a personal choice, not because of defect or anything. I purchased the purple fluid with black/dark purple wax and you literally could not see anything moving inside because the colors were too…"

Schylling "Cotton Candy" 16 Inch Lamp - Initial Impressions

So, I am still rather new to lava lamps, and unfortunately all that I currently have are Chinese lamps from both Lifespan and Schylling.  But I wanted to add a large lamp to my collection, and the 16.3 inch seemed like the perfect size for what I was looking for.  Unfortunately all I could find at first was the common (and in my opinion boring) green/blue and purple/yellow lamps for sale in this size.  After a bit of digging though, I saw that Spencer's was selling this lamp.…See More

Curious About New Schylling Lamps

So, I know that the older Lifespan Brands lamps are well, not very good...but how are the new Schylling lamps in comparison?  I just purchased a rather nice looking (imo) 16.3 from Spencer's online and I'm a little nervous about when it arrives. I've had some terrible experiences lately with getting lamps and have wasted quite a bit of money on having to trash failed attempts at trying to de-cloud things.  I have two lamps currently, both from the Lifespan era that I absolutely love (apparently…See More
