Poor Remote Control

Would Recommend

The remote didn't seem to work well when I got it. It lasted for a week off and on. I assumed it was a cheap battery since it wasn't a branded one. I put in a new battery and nothing. Contacted Lowes to see if I could get a replacement remote since it took me some time to hang the lights just right in the gazebo using zip ties. They said my only option was exchange it. I exchanged it today but it was a major pain. I like the light set, it looks nice and the color options are nice. It wou...

Default color is red

Would Not Recommend

This system doesn't remember what color you had them set to after you turn them off. So when you turn them they always default to red . So putting them on a timer is hopeless. Recieving no support so now I'm taking apart the power pack to try reprogram them myself.

Amazing Lights!!!!!!

Would Recommend

I LOVE THESE LIGHTS!!!! I put up 3 strands on my patio for Memorial day and they were a huge hit. I read some reviews about a red default color, but that only occurred when I first plugged them in before I had used the remote control. The variety of colors is great and my remote controls worked great (on all three units). I never had any other issues. The reviews don't do this product justice. I haven't had any issues and will buying more for gifts for my family. LOVE THEM

Buyer beware.

In the instructions it says you can string 4 strands together without additional power. Nope. 2 strings in succession is all that will work. I've tried multiple outlets, changing the plugs, and shorter extensions. Nothing. The third strand works just fine with its own controller plugged into an extension. Just not in succession to the other strands. Frustrating.

Very disappointed.

I spent a great deal of money on these lights. Remote would not work. Lights would only stay red. May try a new battery. Very disappointed. 89.95 is a lot of money for a product not to work.

outdoor lighting

Would Not Recommend

I purchased 2 sets of these lights. After reading the instructions, I hung them as suggested without the bulbs installed to prevent breakage. I plugged them in, and they came on red. One set did not have a remote in the box. The remote with the other set did not work with either set. Customer service said they were faulty and to return them. I returned one set yesterday and installed the bulbs before hanging them. Guess what? They did not work! Same thing! Once again I called customer service. I...

Amazing

Would Recommend

I bought these lights well before spring and hoped that the in store example would look as good at home. This was the most money I have ever spent on gazebo string lights and I will admit I was a bit worried. Guess what? It looked even better! Well packaged and Setup was super easy considering I had to connect two sets. Nice thick cord, not stupid Christmas light wires. Hooked to my amazing gazebo with zip ties. Even though you have to aim the control at the box, each color is beautiful a...

As Advertised

Would Recommend

I was in search of colored LED patio lights and went back and forth between Lowe’s and Amazon looking at this manufacturer and others. Reviews were not encouraging, none were displayed in our local store to see in operation. I took a chance and after 10 consecutive nights of use I am quite pleased, they do exactly what the item description says. There was no problem getting them set up using four cup hooks (not included), though the industrial-like cable was a bit thicker than expected (not a...

Incomplete product

Would Not Recommend

We bought two boxes of lights. One box had no remote and the other box had a bulb missing. So sad as really liked the idea of colored lights. Will return and look for lights with better quality control in boxing.

Remote stopped working

Would Not Recommend

After only 2 days the remote stopped working. We changed the battery with no luck. Tried using on a timer but could only get the red loghts to come on. Returned to Lowe’s after 1 week.

Default Color Red

Would Not Recommend

I just bought these yesterday. Product very good quality as I hoped. Only problem we have is we are using it for our business (commercial use) and wanted to put it on a timer to go on and off automatically. This works great however BEWARE that the default color is RED. We were hoping to be able to set the default color to be blue or even white. I tried contacting Lowe’s for support with no success. If you are fine with turning them on with the supplied remote control than these are great a...
