For what it's worth I've had one of those integrated overhead fixtures in my kitchen for about 6 years. It hasn't failed yet. The overall shape of the fixture which we like also wouldn't be possible if the bulbs were replaceable.

Your sample size of one is useless

Well actually I've got one in my laundry room too and that one hasn't failed either so it's really a sample size of two. But either way if you don't like it that's why I said for what it's worth.
