Re: Solar light set recommendations

I was just looking at the set from this year. They look nice! I am not sure the brand of the current Costco set. Of course, by the time I started looking at them, the sale is now over!

I order the set of 8 Scott Living in December but barely set them up this week. My only complaint you are supposed to remove the protective plastic from solar part but was unable to but it's still displays a lot of light and you can see the star burst it makes. Very happy with them.

@mimi5775, Just make sure you that they go deep in the ground so they don't flip sideways with the wind. I made sure the area was somewhat moist so they could go in easily but sturdy. I've added a bird bath and a small gardenia tree to the area.

@qvcfreakoh I love the look, darling with the patch of grass and birdbath..my style with the rabbits too Smiley Wink TY for the tip. We have so much wind which hits our big home, rips off shutters so help me every March! (hate the sound of it through windows). Lots of wind late last night.

When I find a good brand of lights I will place in the damp soil. We have had sooo much rain here (live not far from Q) the ground is quite moist still.. but ugh it's gonna rain even more this week.

Now to find the solar lights!

PS: looked for the 8 Scott Living  ..the reviews are very bad Smiley Sad

but look great (lol)

Re: Solar light set recommendations

@mimi5775, I live in South Texas and it has been windy as well over here, I don't mind hearing it what I hate is driving and it moves my car on the expressway. But back to topic, I had mine in the ground for a little over a year and I've had no problems with them. None of the lights have gone out or broken.  I just installed the bird bath in March. 

 

I haven't read the reviews yet but I'm wondering if they didn't install them deep enough. I know when I first put mine in, the ground was hard so they tipped but after a good rainfall I pushed them in and I haven't had to do anything but enjoy them. I hope you find a set you love and will enjoy for a long time. Good Luck
