Bought this for use next Christmas so I can only speak to my initial impressions.  It’s big  bright, definitely an impressive decoration that I plan to bookend with two 20” snowflakes for an eye-catching display.  All lights lit up  the shooting motion feature is smooth I do wish there was an option to keep the white lights steady but a very minor con for sure.  I really like how the lights are completely enclosed in heavy-duty plastic — this was a splurge even at the sale price so I’m hopeful it’ll be durable enough to hold up to Northeast winters for many years to come.  A definite showstopper, I can’t wait to see it in action next Christmas!
