Good quality luminaires like PHILIPS, one do not have to change every 2-3 years.
I have been using a higher grade than PHILIPS Consumer series that is rated at 25,000Hrs and this is the 6th year in service. Based on my average 4-5hrs use per day, this downlight will last me another few more years before needing to change.

These are semi-professional PHILIPS Lighting under SMARTBright Series. I still have spare, thought needed to replace them frequently but been sitting in my store room since bought brand new.

the newer so called "home grade" downlights which now rebrand as "diamond cut" rate for 50k hours. The older ones were called "essential" and then "meson". All are just as good. Mine last 7 years and counting. Out of 20+, only toasted one.
