Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

I used 20 of these around a very large pond situated on a residential property that we listed recently. Had a night open house from 5-9 pm and these lights totally illuminated the pond and reflected off the water. These sold the house for full asking price of $999,000. I gave them to the new owners and they love them. One minor fix....use a 2 part epoxy to glue the globe onto the stem as it's a weak link on some but not all. Well done, carry on!!

Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

I really liked the concept of this product but the glass globe separated from the screw hole right at the beginning. It was a present for my mom and she did like it, but I'm in the process of returning it. I bought quite of few gifts from garden supply and this is the only item that didn't work out.

      I thought this would be fun to watch the full cycle, but after the first day, it has barely worked.

            this globe just lights up my outside deck area with ever changing colored light. So far, the solar on/off is working fine & if it continues to do so, I will be ordering several more.

            These are beautiful and the constantly changing colors from pastels to brights are enchanting. The only faults I have with these stem from the delicate assembly of the bulb to the stem. They break so easily if one screws the head on by the globe. This is a serious fault and I have had to replace these a number of times because of that. When properly and VERY DELICATELY put together, they last years in the yard.

                  This product was out of stock for months, and when it arrived, it almost immediately proved to be inferior. The globe broke away from the stake; husband glued it back. It did not solar-charge for several days, and finally glowed/changed only one night before "dying." I won't buy any globe on a stick again.

                  Very pretty in outside garden. Adds nice color at night for about 4 hours. I live in southern Calif, so sun light is not an issue. $$ value could be better.
