Our take on the 11.5" Lava Lamp Rainbow

A classic LAVA-brand novelty lamp with white wax in clear liquid, a tri-colored globe and a rainbow-decal aluminum base and cap. The wax blobs rise, split and recombine for a slow, relaxing light show. It stands 16.5 inches tall and plugs into a standard 120-volt outlet. The best new price is $26.99 at Cutie Patootie as of November 5, 2026, with three stores listing it new.

Questions and answers

How long does it take to warm up?
Expect roughly an hour before the wax is fully flowing. A warmer room speeds this up.
Does it come with a bulb?
The listing states a 15-watt light bulb is included in the box, though the specs list a 25-watt LED. Check the bulb rating on the base before swapping bulbs.
Is it safe to leave on all day?
LAVA lamps are meant for supervised use. The globe gets hot, so switch it off when you leave the room and keep it away from children and pets.
How tall is it?
It is 16.5 inches tall and 4 inches wide, so it fits on a nightstand, desk or shelf.
Is $26.99 a good price?
That is the best new price among three stores as of November 5, 2026. Classic LAVA lamps often sell for $25 to $40, so it sits at the low end.
Can I use it outside the US?
It is built for a 120-volt outlet. In countries with 220–240 volts you would need a step-down converter.
