I found that my new LED bulbs (a) light up faster, (b) make less noise, (c) have a cleaner light, and (d) last MUCH longer than the CFLs that populated out house before. My personal opinion is that a good quality LED is a better light than a good quality CFL all around, and that the rapidly dropping costs of LEDs make them the best option for new bulbs.

Oh, they seem to spew less heat as well, the bathroom has an 8 bulb fixture, you could feel the heat coming off of it when the CFLs were on, but not with the LEDS.
