Ratings & Reviews for GE String-A-Long 25 -Count 16.0-ft Multicolor Incandescent Plug-In Christmas String Lights

16ft Multicolor Incandescent lights

I love the beautiful burst of light that shines through these colorful bulbs when lit. They are gorgeous and looks very good with our Christmas decor...very pleased with my purchase.

Need quality control and improvement.

I purchased about 8 of these light strands and 2 of them (25%) just didn't work straight out of the box. Super disappointing. Also, they recommend only stringing 2 strands together, but the strands aren't very long so it's not really effective for doing outside lights on a house/larger area.

ok

I tried using 6 all together and it kept blowing the little fuses.

Terrible - do no twork

Purchased these lights and made the mistake of not testing them prior to putting them on my tree. They don't light. I tried several outlets and a power strip just to make sure. I tested a lamp in the outlet and it worked. These lights are a bust.

These lights have been a struggle!!!

I bought these for outside, I first put a lot of strings together (hour and a half putting them up) and all the fuses blew out. Broke them all up to four sections and they still blew out, it just was over a few days. I spent $300 for nothing. I has kind of been a joke this year.

ONLY 2 SETS CAN BE CONNECTED OR FUSE WILL BLOW!!

Read closely before purchasing. We put them up all around our house, plugged them in, and the fuses blew. Come to find out, max of 2 sets can be connected. Needless to say, they are hanging and unable to use unless we run extension cords every two sets to individual outlet.

Returned twice

Had to return 2 boxes, they did not turn on, got 2 more and one of those strands did not work also. Not worth the hassle. Also you can only plug in 2 strands, per the box instructions...

Deceptive box

Nice lights that remind me of my childhood, but they are NOT the colors pictured on the box. It shows red, green, white, blue, and yellow, but there's no yellow... it's orange on the strand. Not a big deal, but be aware of what you're buying.

Merry Christmas

I know people say ohhh led. but nothing beats an incandescent light bulb when it comes to Christmas these are the best outdoor lights

Break easily, dead bulbs

These break in explosive fashion if you look at them wrong and they get very hot (keep away from children). They stopped working one bulb at a time within a day.

Intensely fragile. Color is muddy.

I broke 5 bulbs trying to hang these. They pop if you look at them funny, the glass is super thin. The color is not what I remember from way back. It is all sort of muddy. no vibrant blues or greens here. If they're going to make the old style so cheap you might as well go with more durable LEDs.

Dangerously hot

So pretty but these get dangerously hot almost immediately. Definitely not safe on a tree, maybe okay for outside if you're sure you can keep anything and everything away from them. Yikes.
