I wanted to get my boyfriend some nightlights that looked cooler than standard nightlights, but would still provide me with enough light to get around his condo at night. I was really nervous that these nightlights would be cheesy, but they really aren't. You can adjust the light to change colors in a flash (which, I have to admit, looks a little cheesy) or fade from one color to the next, which is actually pretty cool. You can also set it to stay on one single color, that's what my boyfriend did - he likes the green. Plus, it has a light sensor, so you don't have to worry about switching it on and off. We both really love the nightlights and they look great in his condo!

The unit is smaller than I expected. Looking at the picture, I expected it to be kinda big. The photo sensor works really well. The leds kick in immediately after you turn off the lights. And in the morning it shuts down by itself.

Overall, I think its an okay night light because of the following: the night light is not nearly bright enough. The modes are kind of weak. If you select the continuous change you will see many nice colors (which is great) but the drawback is that they change way too fast. It would be really nice if it had another continuous change mode that was slower in changing the colors. In fact, if it had this feature it alone would make me give it 5 stars and forget the rest of the drawbacks.

I hope they make a new version of the light with a slower color-change and one that allows you to lock it in on white or any of the numerous "changing colors," such as bluish purple or orange.

Anyway, if you buy it and find that the speed of the color-change is fine for you, I'm pretty sure you will be satisfied with the night light.

This light is wonderful and I am back to buy more. You can change the speed of the color change and I set mine to change very slowly. It is beautiful! It casts just the right amount of light for a night light. The first one I bought is in my bedroom and now I am buying more for the guestrooms and bathrooms. I found this to be of high quality and very unique.

Nightlight is nice, as described, except is not bright enough to cast light or to see by, mostly good for marking paths.

These lights do exactly what they say. They're totally photo-sensitive and extremely practical. I use the blue which is very effective but the other colours work just as well. Great for security and comfort....highly recommendable and extremely good value.

Bought one of these about 6 months ago. Very happy with it. Gives off enough ilumination for me to see where I'm going without having to turn on the lights. Don't care for the changing colors setting though; that's a bit cheesy for a night light in my opinion. But it is cool to have 3 other colors to choose from. I am buying another one for my kitchen.

Great color changing light. Ive had it for a while and it still works great. The low wattage allows me to add many of them. It's a light show in itself. I love it. It's my favorite color changing light.

Bought a pair of these at a dollar store two years ago. Yes, they were a buck apiece.
1) nice looking
2) they come on at dusk, off at dawn or when light is turned on
3) i prefer the blue color, so just left mine on blue all the time

One just recently burned out, other is still working. Since one burned out, I give this item a 4. I certainly can't see paying $9 for these to some guy who probably got them at a dollar store....

Reasonable cost, exactly like the description. Colors are great although for my 84 year old Dad, perhaps a bit too psychedelic/startling in the middle of the night.
