How long can you leave the lava lamp on for?

Hello, We recommend that you do not leave your lava lamp on for more than 6 hours. This is so your bottle doesn't overheat which will reduce the life span of the bottle - replacement parts, including bottles can be bought on our website or Amazon shop if your bottle does reach the end of its life... which is normally 2000 hours or 10 years.

what is the height of the Mathmos Astro lamp and what is the size of the Astro baby?

Hello, The height of both the Astro and Astrobaby are 43 cm!Hope this helps!Mathmos Team

Are these really worth 5 times as much as the unbraded ones?

Very much so, the build quality is much better plus the bottles stay clear and good for years. Not to mention you can buy replacement bottles for a fraction of the price... In contrast, once the cheap ones go cloudy (fairly quickly in comparison!), you have to throw the whole thing away!

Yes, Mathmos pride themselves on offering a superior quality to other lamps. With a unique formula and hand-spun metal components (not cheaply made plastic).
