I've got 3 of these now and loving what it did to my backyard! All my friends come over and compliment on how "alive" our backyard looks. You are a bit limited to the aesthetics since this isn't a professional install, and you can see the wires, but for now it does the job until we buy our own place and invest in installed permanent lighting. I also have friends who use these for other types of decorative lighting inside the house and even outdoor events!

Thanks to the much better than average ratings on Amazon, I decided on Endbrighten lights. Right off the bat, I liked the mounting options and the fact that I could switch colors on a whim. The mounting option I picked was to stake them in the ground in the front of the house. This set is replacing the old style of lights that were OK but were a pain to keep the lid on them and also had to replace bulbs too often. It was hard to get the lid on correctly and the wind and passing four leg creatures brushing by the lights easily knocked the tops off. This morning I looked at the old lights out back and half of them had no hats on.

So nice to have remote control over the colors. Before I would have to take that dreaded top off and swap out bulbs to get a different color. As soon as I received this set, I plugged them in to make sure that all was well. While trying out the modes options on the remote, I thought to myself that it would be nice to have a red, white and blue mode for the 4th of July. Sure enough, there is a mode that has that color scheme. I have no negatives at this time and if no major ones pop-up, I will be buying another set to replace the lights in the back of the house. New technology is great for some things and this is one of them.

Edit: The street lights on our block have been out for three weeks. These lights are so bright that they stand out and I really welcome the extra light at night. I purchased another set for the back.

Edit: (5/10/20) After one year, both sets of lights (front and back) are still working as they were when first installed.

Edit: (6/20/21) I see that some are having problems with their lights but mine are still going strong 2 years later. I just adjusted the color mode to the red, white and blue for the 4th of July.

Although these light look great on the exterior of my house, my first set lasted less than 2 years. Supposedly rated for outdoor, this was disappointing.

Enbrighten are the best lights I have own. I started out with the string lights. Had them for 3 years now. Wanted landscape lights so of course I turn to Enbrighten for them.
Wish I could have found them in sams club as I did my string lights, but at least they had them on Amazon. Very pleased with these lights. This set you can space out really well. And the lead wire is great also.

I have to say that this is a really wonderful product. The lights are not overly dim or overly bright...they are perfect. The wire between the lights provides enormous flexibility in setting up the lights. The pegs, or whatever you call them, that attach to the lights and allow you to place them into the ground appear a little flimsy but they work perfectly so don't worry a bit about that. I would encourage you really measure your area that your want to light as I am sorry I did not buy the set with more lights. But i love, love, love this product and I don't say that about a lot of things I buy. Oh, and the remote is super cool with so many choices. We have a lot of fun with that.
