Personal Experience
I have had the projector for about less than one year, have it mounted on ceiling, project onto DaLite screen, excellent image, nice colors, easy to use, but am very disappointed with the lamp life, after use of about 300 hours, the lamp burnt out, the replacement lamp lasted even lesser (just about 100 hours). The expected life of the lamp is about THREE THOUSAND hours and the it does not live upto the expectance.

Problems
Frequent lamp failure (at least twice in one year within <400 hours of total use).
