Rating: - These are very nice!!!
I got these on a gold box deal a while back and they are great and they look nice too. I can place these just about anywhere a they blend great due to the unique coloring. I have heard a lot of people complain about solar lights breaking easily but these wont. I dropped one on accident and it didn't harm it at all. They are metal and durable. I want to get a few more sets myself!!
Rating: - Not really impressed
The plastic stakes broke quickly on two of our lights within the first couple of days. Both were accidentally bumped in to (not even with a lot of force) and broke immediately. They look nice, but don't hold up well. Also, it would be nice if the light was a bit brighter. The light is dim and doesn't last long after dark.
Rating: - Reliable and Easy to Install, but Lights Die Out Too Fast
These lights were very easy to put together and get in the ground--took no more than 15 minutes to get all of them set up.
I have them in my front walkway and they are exposed to full sun all day so they can get a full charge via their solar panels. They come on automatically and reliably at sunset.
However, they last only 4-5 hours before dying out (the rechargeable batteries lose the charge). Also, the LED bulbs have a bright BLUE tint to them, which contrasts the more yellow tint of the rest of my house lights.
Rating: - Quality product at a great price!
When I see this type of lighting in the neighborhood I am always unimpressed by the light output they produce. So, when this appeared in my gold box I figured I would take a chance with just four of them. Now I wish I would have bought another set. I have been using them for a couple of months now and they produce nice bright white light every night.
They come with Nicad AA rechargeable batteries. I would have preferred Ni-Mh, which last much longer and hold more power. Before I assembled these I took the batteries and gave them a full charge with a charger I have, which is good ... Read More
Rating: - I'm happy with them
I had gotten these on a lightning deal, for $20. If that deal comes up again, I'd purchase another set. They're nice looking, but not well made. I don't know of many landscape lights that would survive well after being stepped on or tripped over, and these are no exception. I honestly believe tripping over one of these might destroy it. I chose to put mine in a lightly traveled area, yet dark enough to warrant some additional low lighting. The picture does not show the full stake; a plastic piece (stake) that is inserted to the metal stake showing. It's not very sturdy, and might possibly cause ... Read More
