When I took them out of the box I wasnt impressed with these lights but after I got the prepared and placed the light were I wonted them and let them get a all day solar charge and when it got dark and the light come own they give a nice soft light with a very nice ground cover dezin ambience of lighting down my side walk at first I was going to only give them 3 stares but after seeing the lighting and ground cover lighting I changed my mind and gave the 4 there made of plastic so handle them gently and I will take mine up before winter months just to get longer use of them I do this with all my pathway lights just because of our harsh elements of winter I do like the nice ambience lighting and at the price point cant go wrong with these lights .
