What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the vibrant colors, customizable lighting scenes, and intuitive app control, with many highlighting the ambiance as transformative for outdoor spaces. The app is noted as easy to install, responsive, and allows precise control over effects and scheduling. However, nearly a quarter of reviewers report serious durability concerns, including water damage after rain exposure, bulbs filling with moisture, and premature failures. Many also criticize the inability to link multiple strands into one continuous run without separate power adapters, calling it poor design. Despite these drawbacks, most customers find the aesthetic appeal and app features worthwhile for their investment.

I was so excited for these lights to put around our new trampoline, but they did not work. At the first rain (a few days after putting them up), they started breaking. Now half of the lights don’t turn off unless we unplug them and there is water inside of the lights themselves. The box said they were weather proof and this is not accurate. We will be returning them. Other than that major flaw, they worked well. I would recommend them for indoor use only.

Water Intrusion
Would Not RecommendThe bulbs filled up with water and stopped working in 2 months outdoors.
Not waterproof
Would Not RecommendI set up this lights on my deck. First rain water got into the bulbs. I took them all off, dried and made sure they were very securely tight. We just got more rain, lights filled up with water again :/ Definitely not waterproof. I also got several other Govee products and those work marvelously. But the string lights are a big NO for wet Midwest winters.
“Outdoor” but not water resistant. Don’t buy.
Would Not RecommendThe lights shorted less than two weeks after we bought them after exposure to light rain. Gould the plastic bulbs full of water. Still waiting to hear back from Govee after submitting a ticket. The lights were easy enough to pair and responded to the app. So I suppose they’re good to use if you don’t expect any moisture.

not really "outdoor" lights.. fill with water
Would Not RecommendHad them less than a month hanging outside. I was really excited that a proper investment in lights might be providing a year round solution. But less than a month later they are full of water and shorting out. Of course, I no longer have the original packaging. Looking to send them back if I can.
Pretty for 8 weeks
Would Not RecommendStopped working! One set used only two occasions. Other set worked for 8 weeks. Water in bulbs on both sets. Very disappointed and embarrassed. The set used twice were a gift.

trash
worked for one week and failed
NOT WATERPROOF
Would Not RecommendGreat idea with the coloring changing and syncing with other strings, that part works great. BUT, THEY ARE NOT WATERPROOF as is says on the box! Ended up having to drill an 1/8" hole in the bottom of all the plastic housings to let water drain out. That after 6 of them filled with water and burnt the controller up. Great use for inside, but stay away from wet weather!
Must Subscribe To Service
Would Not RecommendThe color changing and other features only work with a subscription to use their phone app. Otherwise they just come on and burn light blue.
Great value
Would RecommendEase of use (programming)
