Bought some once and they ended up in the trash.  Not this particulare set but another set on QVC years ago.  I would love to have some but don't they eventually quit working?  Would love positive or negative feedback.  Thanks

I bought these last year.  No problems, they work fine and no rust.

 

Now, I bought another type last year as well that stink.  They had a thin post and crackled glass that hung off the flimsy post.  These were a waste of money and almost every post broke within a year.

I bought a set on HSN about 5 or 6 years ago and they still light up every night!  I forget what brand they were though.

I bought the other Energizer set they had late last year and they are working better than most other sets of so,at lights I've had in the last. I ordered another set for my backyard today. 

 

Like many if you, I've gotten more lemons when it comes to solar stuff. I tried numerous light sets and the water fountain/bird bath setups. All junk. But this set is really nice and the copper color has held up well under the Texas sun and sprinkler system. 

 

Hope this helps.

@hoosieroriginal,

I own some lights from HSN also. I believe they are the HGTV brand of solar lights. Mine are several years old and they are still working wonderfully. Mine are the ones that look like there is a "cage" around each of the glass lenses.

@SilleeMee - no, those aren't the ones I got.  The ones I got look more like the Q TS.  But I really think I've had them for 5-6 years!  I wish I could remember the brand - seems like it is right on the tip of my tongue!  Hate when that happens!  Sometimes I think the newer brands just aren't as good or last as long.  Love your lights though!

Could the brand be  *WESTINGHOUSE*??  

 

I have a set of Westinghouse  solar lights I bought about 3years ago in stainless steel.  They are still working and are still lit up at 6AM.   

 

A year ago or so I got the ENERGIZER solar llights in copper. They looked good but only stayed lit for 3 or 4 hours.  ??  Eventually I put them in the trash.  

 

If I replace my solar lights I will buy Westinghouse again.

@gacat123 - Thank you - yes, I believe they were Westinghouse - I knew it was a company name - but just couldn't get it off my tongue!  They are a great set!  Did you get yours on HSN?

I do believe the Westinghouse Solar lights were purchased from  HSN a few years ago.

 

QVC and HSN are my favorite shopping sites.   

 

Iris Apfel was on HSN recently and I ordered a  CAFTAN  in shades of blue  that arrived and I love it!  

 

Keep Calm and Solar On,
