The most important factor when choosing a new lava lamp night light is value. I’ve had many cheap lava lamps over the years, and it becomes such a hassle for something that is supposed to bring relaxation. The metal has overheated, becoming a dangerous threat to children and sometimes warping the base over time. The lights die out far too quickly, meaning you have to go out and purchase more, thus you are spending even more money. Low quality lava causes the lava lamp to become cloudy, wasting your money. Sure, you could buy a cheap one from any random store, but it will end up costing you more money, stress and time.
As you can tell, poorly made lava lamp night lights can become quite a headache, whereas a good quality lava lamp will add peacefulness and mood to your life for many years to come, without the stress. The base is made of quality material and constructed to properly distribute heat. The bulbs are energy efficient and last longer, saving you money and effort. Finally, the lava mix is made of higher quality materials that are specifically made for the best performance, ensuring the liquid remains clear.
You might be thinking, “I just want to buy a night light”. You don’t have to worry because I have collected many lava lamps over the years and have found the best in quality, cost, and convenience. You’ll want to get the highest quality you can for the money when you get a lava lamp of this size. I’ve bought and tested all the lava lamps night lights below and recommend them, thus you can simply select one you like worry-free. All are through Amazon, a reputable and trusted retailer, who has a 30 day money back guarantee, so you can test the lamps yourself.

Fantastic little glitter lamp. It changes colors between red, blue, and green. Very energy efficient and solid quality. Heat safe, so great for children. |
Red Mini Glitter Lamp
Same things could be said for this one, though it doesn’t change colors. If you prefer a static red glitter lamp then I would definitely reccomend it, love the deep red color. |
Color Changing Mini Glitter Lamp
I found the first color changing lamp to be better in quality than this one. Nonetheless, this is still a fine choice if you prefer the shape.

A small light blue night light that is fantastic for a child’s room or to just light a hallway. Not too bright, but allows enough light to be useful. |
|
Deeper blue than the first, just as useful. I have one in my hallway, more power efficient with the LEDs than keeping a lamp on all night. |
Pink model of the previous, great for a girl’s room. My niece has one in her room and uses it every night, creates a very comfortable mood so you can sleep easily. |
Plasma Ball Night Light
Great little nightlight for a children’s room, creates a very soothing enviornment. My newphew has one in his room and loves it. |
8 ounce - Mini Lava Lamp Night Light
These Mini Lava Lamps are a rather new style that become vastly popular for their style and efficiency. These cuties are proportioned exactly like the originals! 10 1/2″ tall, 2.6″ diameter.

This one is great if you like the black like I do but want to stick to a mini lava lamp. This is great if you don’t have much room. |
Yellow and Purple Mini Lava Lamp Night Light
A bigger variety of this should be purchased to fully appreciate the colors. However, this one still looks nice. I like to line up the different sizes of this color. |
White and Pink Mini Lava Lamp Night Light
This is a bit of a strange color combination for me. It does look nice though, especially for a young girl. |
White and Blue Mini Lava Lamp Night Light
I really enjoy these colors together. It’s one of the most soothing lava lamps I own, but it’s not as nice as the 52 oz version, as the lava moves quicker. |

Hi, I like the Lava Lite with the ORANGE liquid & PURPLE wax looks great. I searched the web but I couldn’t find it in this color combination. It looks exactly like the LAST on pictured on this website, but in either 20″ or 52″. Any idea where I can find one in this color combination ? Thank you
