Best purchase ever!
I bought these lights about nine months ago, and I can honestly say they're one of my best finds at Hawkins Woodshop. A couple of months back, my apartment complex replaced my pergola, so they took down my hanging swing and the lights. I didn’t get around to putting them back up before the weather turned messy. They ended up in a knotted pile on the swing tarp, which collected a ton of water that then froze solid. I thought they were surely ruined. I left them alone for a bit and then moved them to another spot. Today, as I was cleaning up my patio for spring, I plugged them in, and to my surprise, every single bulb works perfectly! They're as bright as they were last summer, and somehow, they survived not just a Colorado winter but also being buried in ice for a while. They held up through several storms, even while being unplugged and tossed around. As I mentioned, best purchase ever!

I've had these lights for six years now, and they’re still holding up great! I do have a few unlit bulbs that I can’t replace, but I just move them to the ends and swap them with the lit ones. So far, so good! Originally, I was blown away by how long the strand is at 102 feet—it's way longer than it seems. I ended up buying three strands because I loved them so much. The cord is thick, heavy-duty, and really strong. Each bulb has a sturdy stem with a hole on top, so you can either screw them in or use zip ties to secure them. When you pull on the strand to adjust it, you can tell it’s secure and won’t rip out. The bulbs have a tough plastic shell over the LED, which screws on and off to keep the bulb protected from the weather. I accidentally dropped a strand from about 30 feet, and while the shell didn’t break, the LED did go out—but I was lucky that there’s an extra bulb included in every pack. Honestly, these are such a great deal! I used to like the outdoor lights from Costco, but these are superior in both quality and price.

Great string lights
These lights are just what I was looking for! They work perfectly and look just like they do in the pictures. You get 18 lights plus a spare, which is nice. The bulbs are plastic and lightweight but feel sturdy enough. Since it's a 50’ rope, the spacing is just right. I also appreciate the cap for the end plug.

Best outdoor lights I've found!
I can't believe how great these lights are! The 102-foot length is way more than I expected. I got three strands, and they're perfect. The cord feels thick and durable. Each bulb has a solid stem with a hole that makes it easy to screw in or use zip ties. They hold up well when you're adjusting the slack. The bulbs are covered in a tough plastic shell to protect the LED, which is a great feature. I even dropped a strand from about 30 feet, and while it broke the LED, the shell didn't shatter—there's even a spare bulb in every pack! After using these, I think they beat the Costco lights in both quality and value.

Best purchase ever!
I got these lights around 9 months ago, and they might be the best thing I've bought at Hawkins Woodshop. A couple of months back, my apartment complex replaced my pergola, so they took down my hanging swing and the lights too. I didn’t get the chance to put them back up before the bad weather hit. They ended up in a knotted mess on the swing tarp, which turned into a pool of water that froze solid. I thought for sure they were done for. I finally moved them to a different spot and decided to plug them in while I was cleaning my patio for spring, and every single bulb works like a charm! They shine just as bright as they did last summer, and somehow, they survived the Colorado winter—even after being buried in ice! They handled all the rain and snow storms just fine, and I’m seriously impressed. Best purchase ever!

Great lights for my pool!
These lights are perfect when used with a timer! I've wrapped six sets around our pool area, and they create a lovely, soft glow. I'd recommend them!
