What Customers Are Saying

The product has mixed reviews. Some customers praised the vibrant colors, large size, and brightness of the lights. However, many reported issues with durability and reliability, including bulbs burning out, wiring problems, and inconsistent color patterns. A significant number of reviewers experienced the lights failing prematurely, within days or weeks of use. Overall, while the lights can produce an impressive effect when working properly, they may not be a reliable or durable option, especially given the premium price.

Be careful of Lowe’s policy concerning holidays.

Would Not Recommend

Missing parts and control. Should not have been on shelf. More a Lowe’s issue than GE.

died after <1 season

Would Not Recommend

Bought three strands of these. Half of one strand died after less than one Christmas season of use (I changed both fuses and checked the bulbs and it was still dead).

Complete junk/ 1 season lights

Would Not Recommend

These are complete garbage! I was looking for a lights I could use for years to come when picking these out. I bought six sets of lights for a total of $300 which is a small investment if you get a few years out of your lights. Well, not the case I ended up getting one season out of them. Not a single light strand turned on this year. Couldn’t get a refund or credit for new lights this year. Was only told to send the lights across country so that they could be looked at and possibly fixed. What ...

Easy to use and very versatile

Would Recommend

This is a very versatile and easy to use holiday light set. It includes a remote control which is great because you can easily change color or patterns anytime you like with the push of a button. Some string lights have the button built in on the lights which require you to use a ladder to adjust the lights

Beautiful Lights

Would Recommend

We bought two sets for our indoor tree and they have been great. I've been reading the reviews and it scares me about next year. They were very expensive (not on sale).

Complete Garbage!

Would Not Recommend

I wanted to love these lights so much, however that wasn't the case. Within a few days of having them up, lights started "burning out." When we would swap the bulb with another one, both lights would work. The only issue with that was that the colors were then out of sync. When we changed the settings, different lights wouldn't work. It was like playing whac-a-mole trying to get all of the lights to stay on. Then, within 2 weeks, a whole strand went out for several days, but then a few days late...

HORRIBLE PRODUCT ! Absolutely ruined 2 Christmas’

Would Not Recommend

THESE LIGHTS ARE ABSOLUTELY GARBAGE ! They look great when they WORK ! GE is a trusted name brand so I took the chance on the product two Christmas’s . We purchased 5 boxes each year with strings that stopped working after a few days in use . These lights are over 50.00 dollars a box for lights that don’t work! What a total disappointment & disgrace on GE’s reputation for such substandard products. Shame on Lowes for carrying this product as an exclusive . Two trusted Companies that have definit...

They do not work

I purchased two sets of these lights. Neither so that worked. Sent them to GE under warranty; to pay shipping, which was almost as much as what I paid for the lights. Lesson learned: don't buy GE Christmas lights!

Thanks alot GE for ruining my Christmas the week before Christmas these lights are horrible! A strand went out this Thursday! I paid money to have my lights professional hung on my roof line, and had to have the professional come back out to see if he could fix with a brand new box of lights that were a different color since Lowes didn't have the ones I purchased originally,but the same brand and multi effect, but sadly no instead another strand went out yesterday! I had to have the lights comp...
