Ky Sanders says
I’ve always been mesmerized by them, but not so much to buy one. I’d need to find a place that needs some groove going on to display it.
Raven says
I had a chwap lava lamp when I was little that never worked. Id love this one, It would go in my freshly painted room!
jessica says
I had a pink one that I had bought at a garage sale about 12 years ago. It got broke during a move. I would set this new one on my fireplace,so I can see both at same time
Carla says
a truly groovy chick needs a lava lamp on her bedside table, for anti-hypertensive properties. Yeah, that’s it…
KatieS says
I never had a Lava Lamp despite years of asking my mom. I know my 10-year old would love it.
Craig says
I love Lava lamps! I purchased a silver lamp with orange liquid inside for my desk at work, and it almost didn’t make it to work. Every single visitor to my desk makes a comment about how they love the mesmerizing lamp. I would *love* another one for home!
Toni says
I LOVE lava lamps! I’d put that puppy in our living room so that I could see it all the time!

Totally takes me back to my childhood!

I purchased my first lava lamp at a Spencer’s in the 90s. Been collecting them ever since.
Debbie in Portland says
I always wanted a Lava Lamp, but my parents thought they were too expensive. I would put this in my living room and plug it in every night, because you’re never too old to have a happy childhood. 🙂
