DISAPPOINTING Apr 22, 2007
By grinch
"grinch"
We bought several spheres 3 years ago and just loved them. This past year we found them on Amazon and were delighted to buy them for approximately half of what we paid for them at our local Christmas store. We put the new set up and the next night several of the balls had unlit sections. I checked the lights and was able to get all but one lighting properly. Several nights later, the same thing happened. By the time the Christmas season was over nearly every new light we had bought was not lighting properly. Sometimes it was something simply like a bulb being cracked after hitting the tree it was hanging in. Most of the time, however, it was not something simple. Here is the main problem. The lights are not wired in series,therefore, when one bulb is out, the whole section is out. You cannot easily determine which bulb is burned out or shorted. Several times I had to remove all the bulbs in the sphere and test the bulbs one by one before replacing them in the sphere. Since the sockets are so close together and the lights are not wired in any discernible series, you cannot use a conventional Christmas light tester to determine the source of the problem. We had one sphere fall prey to neighborhood vandalism and was smashed by a baseball bat or a similar object. I looked inside the sphere and not only did I find cheap wiring I could not see a pattern or series in the wiring. If you have any wind where you live, they are extremely vulnerable to damage.
I would not buy these lights again because they malfunction quite frequently and are extremely hard to fix when they do.

Ordered all available colors and was surprised at brilliance and size of these spheres. I put all of them in the same tree and everyone who sees them comments on how nice they look. Wolud buy more but out of stock.
The size that I ordered was the mega size or 10".

I love these lights...I have a gazebo, and use all different colors all year round...however..the price is RIDICULOUS !!!
Last year, I must have bought a dozen or so...and paid $15.00 each..for the 150 lights size.(Here on this site).
I was going to purchase another group...not now tho!!!

I love my Blue Christmas!! Dec 28, 2008
By Martha D. March
"star gazer"
I purchased 2 of these spheres and hung them indoors, one in each doorway between my livingroom ... to the entry and diningroom. They give off such a warm, inviting glow. When I was growing up we always had all blue lights on our Christmas trees. These spheres brought back such wonderful memories of Christmases of long, long ago. My grandkids (ages 4 and 21 months) absolutely loved them! The 4 year old "helped" me hang them. Such a big boy! I will purchase more for other holidays.
Although they are advertised as Indoor/Outdoor lights, I don't think I'd hang them outdoors here in the Northeast in the winter. With the wind, snow, sleet, etc. I'm afraid they wouldn't stand up to the weather. They hang on a long string (which is adjustable), but the globes around the lights are plastic. Right now we are in the midst of a wind storm. If I had hung them outside, I don't think they would have withstood the storm. The string is sturdy enough. But if the sphere had banged into the porch I don't think it would have survived. That being said, I think it would be great for holidays during other times of the year ... Easter, 4th of July, etc.

It greeted our guest as they arrived New Years Eve. Everyone commented on how festive it was. Better than a disco ball. This one is a thumbs up!
