Extra-long 288FT 800LED Solar Fairy String Lights, 4-Pack 72FT 200 LED Outdoor Twinkle Lights Waterproof, 8 Lighting Modes, Warm White Copper Wire Lights for Deck Backyard Tree Garden Fence Pool Party

I bought these extra-long solar fairy lights about two years ago, and I’m genuinely impressed by how well they’ve held up. The string is long enough to wrap around a big patio or fence, and the LEDs are bright enough to add a cozy glow without being harsh. Even on days when the sun isn’t at its best, they still manage to light up in the evening, which surprised me. The build quality feels solid too—I haven’t had any major sections burn out or stop working. Overall, a great choice if you want durable, low-maintenance outdoor lights that look good year after year.

I bought these 3 years ago and wrapped them onto the frame of an outdoor patio gazebo. I mounted the solar panels to one upright and ignored them since. We took down the canvas canopy every winter, but left the lights on the frame through rain, snow, and sleet - typical northeast US winters. All year long, they come on at dusk and are still lit at 5 or 6 am when we get our coffee! A cloudy day, of course, will reduce the time they stay on, and certainly, we don't always see the lights on at dawn. But overall, these have really been effortless and durable. We're replacing our canopy with a hard top model and we repurposed the old lights because the solar panels are getting a bit hazy (to be expected after 3 years in the sun and elements!). These are back in my shopping cart for the new gazebo! Note that these are fairy lights. We had 3 strings under a 10x12 canopy and it was faintly lit. Plenty of light to avoid running into furniture, see where your drink glass is, and see your companions. But the light was certainly dim and soft (we had the soft white version). I did add candle lanterns on the tables to brighten up the space a bit, but these are not "bright". Buy more if you want bright, or use these as the always-on background for additional statement lighting.

I ordered this product, and then left it in the box for a year. Finally, I was going to put them up. I left them out in the sun all day, and they turned on. But when I pick them up off the ground to put them on my fence, they shut off and never worked again. Unfortunately, it's a 30-day return. And it's been a year. So if you buy these, make sure they work within the right time limit. Had to redo my review. I went out this morning, and the lights were on and beautiful and bright and twinkling. Have to put my other review down to user error. I think that when I took the lights off the relative shadow of my back porch into the sunlight, they turned off automatically. But I've had them in the box for over a year, took them out, and now they work perfectly.

Only two of the 4 worked. Too late to return. UPDATE 1/28/26 THEY REFUNDED MY ORDER EVEN THO IT WAS PASS THE RETURN WINDOW. I CHANGED MY RATING FROM 2 STARS TO 4 STARS.

Love them , keep them up all year round on my trees , makes yard brighter and yet more magical , I have only had to replace them when a cat or squirrel cut the wire climbing the tree

LOVE LOVE This lights BUT… the last 2 times, they are wound backwards. I would give them 5 stars if they could get this corrected like it was before. My replacements are the same, backwards. You have to unwind 72’ of wire or else you start where you think you’ll finish. The solar panel might end up where you guess but most likely not. Maybe in the shade and that’s not good. They NEED to correct this

The lights are as described. Customer service is great! I had two of the lights quit working and they sent replacements promptly.

Love it! At first I was a little worried about how small everything was, but it turned out great. Annoying to unravel because I needed to start with the end closest to the solar powered part, then loop it around. Overall, it’s a great addition to my privacy planters! I used two sets on each planter. Will update after we get some weather.
