I've been wanting these lights for a couple of years and finally made the decision to get them. They are glass, instead of plastic, so I thought the workmanship would be superior, but two of them have snapped off the base. (One, my 40-lb. dog brushed against, and the other I'm not sure what happened.) I superglued them and so far they are holding, but for what I paid, I guess I think they should be more sturdy. I was definitely disappointed. On the plus side, they cast a nice light on my garden path at night.
