What Customers Are Saying

The product received mixed reviews. Some customers were satisfied, describing the lights as great, beautiful, and perfect for decorating. However, the majority expressed significant disappointment. Key issues included the lights not being as warm white as advertised, being not very bright, and having reliability problems with many lights failing after short use. There were also inconsistencies in brightness and color between different sets of the same lights. Overall, the consensus seems to be that the product did not live up to customer expectations, especially regarding the advertised warm white color and brightness.

Only lasted 3 weeks

Would Not Recommend

Terrible purchase. Hung these up and looked great, only lasted 3 weeks before the whole strand went out. Buy extra for replacement if you choose these lights

Not bright at all

Would Not Recommend

Bought about 10 sets to do the front of the house. They aren’t very bright. I’m not even sure these should be considered C9 bulbs. It’s really a small LED in a C9 plastic case which was also not very durable. I ended up complete taking down the lights and returning them.

Christmas tree delight

Would Recommend

I was hesitant about changing to the led lights on my tree but because of the saving in all my led lighting I thought I would give this a try on my Christmas tree as well. At first the lights looked plastic & cheap in the box but I put a string on my tree & they are perfect! I couldn’t be happier. I love the old fashioned tree & all the bright colors & the lights are amazing! Now I just wonder why I waited so long to change over!

Inconsistent color temperature

Would Recommend

The lights are great but the color temperature has changed. I bought several sets two years ago, but I wanted additional sets this year. I ordered new GE C9 lights for store pickup with the same Lowes item number, the same UPC barcode, and the same box picture as the old ones. However the new ones came in a different box with the same UPC, and when I plugged them in they were brighter and had a color temperature that was cooler (more blue) than my older lights even though the box said warm wh...

Dim Light

Would Not Recommend

We did not like these lights at all. They are very dim compared to lights we have had in the past. The color is also a icy white color v. ALL of our other lights which are a golden white.

Waste of Money!

Would Not Recommend

Dim, dull, and not a warm white. One birthday candle is brighter than the 100s of bulbs we installed for Christmas. I expected more from GE and Lowe’s.

Not even close to warm white

Would Not Recommend

These lights don't even match GE's mini LED "warm white" Christmas lights. Way too cold to be considered warm white. Like others have said, there is a slight flicker as well. Will be removing them from my house and returning.

Not warm and subtle strobe effect

Would Not Recommend

These are not very warm and they have a strobe effect that gives you a headache. My wife didn’t believe me at first, so I took a slow-motion video and sure enough, these are rapidly turning on and off. Will be returning all the boxes we just bought.

Very disappointed, huge waste of time and money.

Would Not Recommend

Would give 0 stars if it was an option. Wasted my time and money putting these lights up. They are not “warm white”, they look like a normal whitish/blue LED bulb. Lights are very dim and don’t even look they are on from a distance of 15 feet. Shouldn’t have trusted what the box said, I’m very disappointed. Now I get to take down 100ft of lights and try to get them back into the box to return. DO NOT BUY.

Net lights work well

We bought the net lights for our front bushes, and they work very well. Curbside pickup was easy and efficient.

Inoperative "Sale Item"

Would Not Recommend

Bought them during the end of season sale, and none of the lights worked. Guess I shouldn't have selected the only one left with an open box!
