We purchased these lights a couple years ago. Though I prefer a larger bulb on the exterior, these little bulbs still push out the light!
Many people are concerned about longevity when making a seasonal purchase. I am no exception. The spool that these lights came on broke before we finished putting them away the first year. We purchased a separate spool and bag set to store them.
The strands themselves seem well put together and have already served me well for several years. The bulbs on this model are also replaceable if a bulb were to fail.
