Great. And the shift to LED is welcome. Tougher bulbs, longer lasting. They look the same as the incandescent. I mixed with older light strings and could not tell the difference.

Works really well. Added great ambience to the porch

I don't know what people meant when they wrote that these lights are fragile... I found them to be sufficiently robust, withstanding some light knocks while being hung. After powering up, a few of the bulbs weren't working. This was resolved in every case simply by tightening them half a turn.All told, I'm very happy with these lights

I bought these globe string lights with the simple dream of turning my backyard into a cozy, Pinterest-worthy paradise. Instead, I accidentally summoned every moth within a five-mile radius and created an environment so charming that my neighbors started holding wine tastings on my patio (uninvited, I might add).Installation was easy—until I realized I had tangled myself in 30 feet of electrical chaos and briefly became the human embodiment of a Christmas tree. But once up, these lights transformed my yard into an instant Instagram backdrop. They are just bright enough to feel magical but not so bright that my yard looks like a crime scene investigation.Pros:✅ Aesthetic levels: off the charts. Your yard will look like a Tuscan villa, even if it’s just a sad suburban deck.✅ Surprisingly durable. Survived a storm, my toddler’s reckless frisbee toss, and a squirrel attempting parkour.✅ 30 bulbs = LOTS of light. It’s like the sun, but without the judgment.Cons:❌ Moth convention. Hope you like winged party guests.❌ Mild existential crisis. They make every other light source in your house look depressing.❌ You will buy more. Because suddenly your whole house needs mood lighting.Final verdict? Buy them. Embrace the glow. Accept that your backyard is now the neighborhood’s new favorite hangout.

I bought these for a party to hang over the small back patio of my townhouse. As it turns out, I've kept them up for 3+ weeks now and don't foresee taking them down unless I absolutely have to. They work perfectly, provide a nice warm glow for summer evenings spent outside, and generally make the patio a little prettier.The bulbs are packed separately and you'll need to screw them in individually either before or after hanging the wire. I did mine first and didn't have any problems. They've held up well in a couple of rainstorms now and are still going strong. Also having one empty socket or bad bulb doesn't cause the whole strand to die.A couple of things that kept me from giving them a full five star rating:~ The bulbs are EXTREMELY fragile. Much more fragile than a regular light bulb. I barely touched one against the edge of the ladder when I was hanging them and it shattered into a zillion tiny pieces. I had to use pliers to get the base out.~ The box comes with exactly 50 bulbs, no spares. I broke the one above, and one of them was bad straight out of the box. I was able to strategically move the empty/bad sockets so they weren't noticeable, but I would recommend that you order a box of extra bulbs at the same time, just in case.~ The plug end is literally 3" from the first bulb. There is no leader of wiring to give any wiggle room to get to an outlet. I wound up having to run an extension cord halfway up the wall to plug them in. I plan to install an outdoor outlet at the roof line sometime this fall which will fix that, but in the meanwhile the extension cord is kind of ugly. YMMVThose are minor things, though, and overall I give these a full 4 stars. I love them.

These lights look great on my balcony. They were packaged efficiently and also glad to have extra bulbs.

perfect patio lights, lightweight, plastic bulb clear, warm light.

The Brighton Lights were great. I opened and tested them after receipt. Worked great! Quality is great.
