If it is a low budget off brand... then I would agree with the
statement.  Name brands fair much better.  I have had CFL in some
locations that have lasted 5+ years.

I would stay away from off brands: I bought a batch of off brand lights
and every single one failed in 6 months.

Also make sure you buy the correct color temperature 2500-3000K for the
incadescent light you are used too.
