5.0 out of 5 stars Not happy a few months later, June 6, 2009

Installation was a breeze! These lights are appropriately bright and they are very pretty. They charged in a few hours. I bought the individual lights and the spotlight set. The only complaint that I have is that I wish the spotlights were on a longer line than 6 feet. Other than that, the set is lovely, and the seller's description is very accurate.

It is now August 19. Three months later and I'm very unhappy. The lights behave very eratically. One of them stays lit at night, as it should. All of the others primarily don't stay lit. They've gone out, one by one. However, last night, one of those previously dead lights relit itself.

I had bought a solar light set years ago. It did finally die, but it took a good six years. I haven't even gotten six months out of this set.

2.0 out of 5 stars Fair - but I would go the next level up next time, September 3, 2009

My son was working on his Boy Scout Eagle project, an outside pathway and we wanted to pick up some solar lights to make the area more inviting during the dusk and early evening times. Due to budget constraints of the project we needed to look at the most economical product available. I am usually hesitant to pick up the lowest cost line of a given product, due to quality concessions, but again due to project budget constraints we went with these.

The lights are easy to put together, so that is really not an issue. However not all of the lights turn on and I have gone back a few times to make sure that everything is set correctly. Additionally, we live in the south west - where the sun is on high most of the time. Having a fair amount of experience with plastic degradation in this climate, I give these lights no more than 2 years before they start to completely break apart due to sun bleaching.

The project is complete now, but we are still getting some donations. We will be picking up some additional lights for other parts of the path; we will definitely not be picking these up. I will go with the next tier up, even though it is more expensive, I need to have these things work 100% of the time.

Hi,
had bought a Set of these and I'm very dissadisfied. Plastic spikes break VERY easy, very cheap quality. I do not recommend this product at all! I regret not spending a little extra on something that will last a while. All 6 Solarlights are broken now. And that after less then 2 month!
