What People are Saying About This Glass Ball Fixture
Color Changing Solar Ball
I have nine of them in my yard, along with a number of other lights. At first my son said mom why so many lights, now he thinks they look good at night. Ordered two on my last order, unfortunately one came in defective and I am currently waiting for a replacement that was sent out. Other than that, I have had no problems with my lights. Balls are beautiful to watch as the color changes.
Not the Greatest
I am another person that ordered 3 of these this summer. One has completely died after about a week, changed the battery and still does not work. The second one stopped working after about a month, I changed the battery and that one now works nicely. The 3rd one is not very bright and does not stay on long, I will be changing the battery in that one when I get a chance. I would not recomend these unless you get a really realy good deal since you will be having to replace the batteries in short order and crossing your fingers that they will work after.
So Pretty
I love the globe lights and the color changes are so pretty! Speed of mailing with free shipping was a little slow, but not bad, for free shipping. I actually thought their were more lights, but the one light was so beautiful and I ordered two, just a very nice addition to my deck lights (I placed them in potted plants around my huge deck). I get to look out my french doors and see their beauty at night.
Beautiful!
A neighbor down the block has color changing globes in her backyard, and they are very pretty, so I compared reviews and ordered one of these. I liked it so much that I ordered two more, but before they even arrived, someone stole the first one from my front flower bed. Perhaps that's why my neighbor has hers in her backyard. Anyway, these are beautiful globes with many vivid colors. They stay lit long into the night even after a cloudy day. They are easy to put together are place into the ground. I highly recommend them!
Happy
I bought several Moonrays lights a year ago and they started a gardening revolution for my 89-year-old mother. She loves them and they have been working for a year. So I just bought some more for her (lilies this time) and also some of the globe ones for my grandsons. The boys (ages 10 and 11) assembled and disassembled my own globe lights this year for a spot of color on a camping trip in July. The lights not only survived :-) but are still glowing now that we are in another location. I am really looking forward to getting the lilies!
Finally, Some That Work
Over the course of several days, I ordered 5 and returned 3 of these delightful lights, in the hopes of having 2 that would operate as advertised. The 3 that needed to be returned worked not at all, or for only 1-2 nights, and then stopped functioning. Finally, I have 2 that have been working wonderfully, and they provide just the right amount of alternating colorful light in my garden.
From what I could determine, either the auto/off switch on the units was not working, or the solar generating unit did not charge the battery, so if you're in the market for these lights, be prepared to receive and return some to have some that work.
Would I purchase more of them, yes, they truly are unique and "happy" additions to the garden.
Worth it!
I bought nine of these for my sidewalk and absolutely love them! I have read reviews of them being unreliable and did have one that didn't work. It's light sensor was ineffective and stayed on all the time. Amazon sent me a new one within 36 hours, amazing! I find myself sitting on my porch at twilight just to watch them come on. I've had them for about six months now and have had no problems. They are also very durable and made of thick glass. I've slammed one with my car door (ouch) and dropped one on the sidewalk while installing and they don't have a scratch on them. The glow also looks spectacular from the road and the beautiful changing colors ensure that you will never get bored with them.
Fantastic Light Show
Recently purchased 9 of these Colour-changing Glass Ball Fixtures, and after a few little discrepancies (which were expedited and handled in a most impressive and professional manner and procedure), are well worth acquiring.
The changing of colors and the display of light, in and around the patio and rockery, is most pleasant and a real conversation item.
Everybody has commented how beautiful they are and want to know where to obtain them, i.e. never have seen them before. Well worth the money. You will not be disappointed.
Beautiful!
I ordered two of these initially and after seeing them in action, ordered two more. They are absolutely beautiful and the two that I first ordered have been working well for over a month. Not sure how long they light up at night, but I know they go for at least four - five hours (I have them in an area that receives direct sunlight most of the day). I would expect them to cost much more, but at this price they are a bargain. The only downside so far is the glass globe, which if broken, would render the light pretty much useless. But its hard to imagine getting this kind of lighting effect using a plastic globe.
UPDATE: A month into using these (I now have five), one has failed (replacing the battery did not work) for no apparent reason. The other four are still going strong. They do need A LOT of sunshine to be really effective, but are really eye catching and, despite the failure of one of them, I am still very pleased with the purchase overall. NOTE that these should not be relied upon for illumination purposes, only for decorative use. BUYER BEWARE: The price is suddenly rising (now up to $14), at lease on my screen. ANOTHER UPDATE: Fixed the one that failed by ordering another nicad battery and charging it for a day before installing it. Unit not works perfectly. PRICE is increasing greatly (when shipping is factored in) as I have noticed happens a lot on Amazon with other items. I paid less than $14 including shipping for all of mine, so beware!
