What Customers Are Saying

The product has received mixed reviews. Many customers found the light poles to be easy to install and suitable for supporting string lights. However, some reported issues with durability, as the poles bent or broke under the weight of the lighting. Quality control also seems inconsistent, with some customers receiving damaged or defective products. While the poles work well for some, others have experienced stability problems, especially with heavier lighting setups. Shoppers should carefully consider the weight and tension their lighting will place on the poles before purchasing.

Solid pole

Would Recommend

Solid pole, but did need additional supports once the weight of the lights were strung up on it. I just ran a steel cable from the top of the pole over to a nearby tree, and that did the trick.

Sturdy when spaced 10" apart

Would Recommend

These are sturdy enough for the price. I used 4 over a 40 foot span and zip tied the wire to each loop- to avoid pulling too hard on any one section. It can be a little hard to get them into firm ground, and because it's just a straight spike I worry they may eventually have enough micro movements to enlarge the hole a little and not stay perfectly straight. I may also add a guide wire to each end pole to help with the extra force pulling inward towards the others, but so far they are fine, even...

Semi-Sturdy

Would Recommend

These would be so much better if they could be put deeper into the ground. I used them to install an 11'10" x 8' Coolaroo Sun Shade to keep the heat off my front porch where I have Tomatoes and Broccoli growing. I am afraid that they will bend fairly easily with a light breeze.

Works like it should

Would Recommend

There's nothing fancy here, but it's easy to use, has stayed upright through a couple of heavy windstorms, and doesn't clutter your space. I would buy this again.
