There's also a HUGE question of "color temperature" for aesthetics. Most white LEDs are a bluish white, called "cool". The "warm" version is more towards yellow and is closer to incandescent. Warm is greatly preferred, but they're typically harder to find, more expensive, and less lumens/w.
There isn't much in the way of LED lamps and room-lighting "bulbs". Unfortunately, what there is is often made very poorly and is very prone to early failure, despite the high cost and low power.
