This review is from: Sony XL-2200 – LCD projector lamp
Simply, this seller is a deceptive liar. This is not a Sony product. It has a Sony price, and the description says it is Sony, but it is a generic POS that can be found for under $90 (shipped) anywhere. The bulb is a Osram, but Sony uses Philips bulbs. This Osram bulb is rated at 4,000 hrs and the Philips bulb is rated at 8,000 hrs. The last time I purchased a lamp for my TV I got a cheapo with the Osram bulb for $80 shipped. It was not as bright as the original Sony lamp and the colors were washed out, and it only lasted for under a year. Save your money and buy from a reputable seller. This seller should be banned from amazon. I am pissed for being lied to.

This review is from: Sony XL-2200 – LCD projector lamp
I am sooo happy I didn’t pay $400 to have a technician come out and replace the lamp in our Sony flat screen. This was so super easy to replace that I couldn’t believe it!!! The directions are not included with the lamp, but they were in my owner’s manual. I started to laugh when I took the front tv panels off. I paid the best price around(it’s $200 most places), the shipping was fast, and most importantly, the lamp was in perfect condition when it arrived. Never buy a lamp warranty policy on a new tv!! We paid $200, never used it for 3 years, it expired, and now we had to buy a new lamp-good price, but we’re still out an extra $140. Plus I found out the lamp policy would have only covered a lamp and I still would have had to install it myself. What a rip-off!!
