One section stopped working after one day also had bought this same lights a year before and those actually faded so this years set and last years set are two totally different blues Ill see if it evens out but the house looks pretty ugly now. The crinkles is just me being lazy and not folding the folds straight but I just figured it looks pretty ugly so I gave up and left it like that. If it was all good then Id love it but its not worth 4 purchases
