    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I absolutely love these lights. After our big snowstorm, I was heartbroken that two broke; however, I was enlightened when several started to illuminate, just barely above the snow. Well worth the money! I'm purchasing my sixth set (we have a big yard).

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    The spheres change colors frequently for a fun light show. If I could change anything, I'd slow the changing down a little, but they make a fun accent with the garden. My Grandkids refer to them as 'fairy lights'. Looking forward to seeing them nestled among the flowers and putting on a light show.

    The colour changing lights are mesmerizing. It is disappointing when the lights are dimmed out in cold and dark winter nights. I haven't seen anything like it before. Also, the round shape makes it impossible for birds to perch on and defecate on.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    The sphere is really cool and the way the colors change is awesome, but that's really all the good stuff I can say about it. I followed the instructions and charged it in the "off" position for two sunny days, and for the first two days after that, it worked great. Then the charge started lasting less and less time. Two weeks later, it stays lit for only 2-3 hours, and flickers most of the time. The glass sphere also cracked, which is weird because it hasn't fallen or gotten knocked into, so it must have cracked from the cold (I live in Atlanta, so it's not like it's that cold). All in all, I'm very disappointed in this product. It's also much smaller than it seems in the picture.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    These lights were a whimsical purchase. The idea of solar-powered color changing globes was too good to miss trying. We live in a snowy, cold part of northern New York, and this item was probably not a good choice for our climate, though nothing in the listing suggested a problem. They worked for one day, then the batteries would not re-charge, even with snow brushed off, and several bulb inserts broke. A very appealing idea, but it just didn't work well here. We were not careless with the units.

    I gave as a gift and my sister said it is absolutely beautiful at night. At first she thought it was broken, then she "read the instructions" and found it had an "on/off" switch. She was so delighted with it when it became night time. They think it might keep the deer away at night!

    We use these lights to surround the end of our driveway closest to the house. We have several windows that face that area and we love to look at them at night. They are bright and beautiful. They are easy to put together but can't comment on longevity since we only just put them in before Christmas.

    I love these lamps. I give them as gifts a lot,but I am very disappointed in the fact that they don't last. Changing the batteries doesn't always solve the problem. Don't know what the problem is so I have just purchased new ones to replace the other nonfunctioning ones. Since they have been gifts I always feel embarassed.

    I found it difficult to respond to the questiosn above. The glue gave way on the ball as we were putting it together. For the price, it seems kind of chintzy. Your other products are fabulous. For the cost, it should have been better quality. Either reduce the cost or increase the quality.

    I purchased one in a [...] store and could not find any more. I wanted 3 to line my front, curved sidewalk. However, while waiting for the other 2 to arrive from Gardener's Supply, we have found that we absolutely LOVE the light show this puts on inside our house! My 3 kids love to see the different colors dancing across the ceiling while we lay in bed together. It's better than a nightly bed-time story! We may not ever put the lights outside...may find a place in each child's room inside.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I have 6 of these to illuminate my planters in the backyard. They are absolutely gorgeous, easy to use, and light up the backyard in beautiful colors. The only reason why I give them 4 out of 5 is that the sphere on 2 of them had fallen off, not allowing the sphere to properly screw back on the bulb pole. Fortunately my glue gun easily fixed the problem, adhering the ball back onto the light pole.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I purchased one of these, and enjoyed it so much, I bought two more! They are great in groups, set at different heights. You get such a light show.
    They are really attractive, and not many solars have so many different color changes.

    I will buy more as gifts. They are really great.
    Just take care in the assembly, as the ball is delicate.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    These globes are pretty, but trouble. One of our three didn't work because the internal battery holder was broken in the box. The glass globes are incredibly fragile; as far as we can tell one of them shattered simply by being pushed against another by the sprinkler system.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    Product is great to look at. However, unless there is a TON of daily sunlight (I do have them placed in an area to receive and have changed the batteries), be prepared to see them "flicker" during the night vs. blend from one color to another smoothly. Kind of disappointing actually. The solar panels really need to be ramped up to absorb more sunlight.

    I enjoy the 2 lights that work however the charge of the solar battery is limited when it is cloudy during the daytime,
    Thus 2 out of 3 lights work which isn't bad for a "Red China" product.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    These were easy to put together. I did have to dig a hole for each one because our sandy soil was too dense to just push them into the ground, but they stayed in place afterward. They started lighting up the first night after I installed them, even though the manual said it would take 2 days. They light up even after cloudy days. The picture in the catalog was accurate. In my opinion, these are designed for creating spots of color in the garden, not for area illumination. I have not observed any damage due to weather after a few weeks.

    I installed 3 lights along a wall among my roses in the side yard. The ligts get a few hours of sunlight but that is enough to keep them lighting until we go to bed. They are very beautiful and visitors have remarked about the light show. For those who wrote they didn't work, make sure the on-switch, located underneath, is completely on.

    I have purchased several of these over the years - the oldest one is probably about 5 years old and has been out in the weather year round. All I've had to do is replace the battery (rechargeable NiCad) one time. I now have six of them scattered around my back yard and the color they produce at night helps get me through the long, dark winters!

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    These solar spheres are so magical that I call them my fairy lights. I have three of this design in my gardens. Anyone who has seen them glowing in the darkness has asked about them so now I have started to give them as gifts. The receipients seem to mention the spheres each time they see me. Also, after a good sunny day it is not unusual to look outside in the middle of the night or early morning and still see a faint glow from these spheres.

    Thanks for the opportunity to share. We purchased three lights. They are in partial shade for some of the day, but are still lit - but fading - at 5AM. On the downside, one of the lights is not as reliable as the other two. It flickers some and does not light as well as the others.

    When mine arrived, it said it would need a day or two to charge from the sun. The local weather report predicted a storm, so I opened the box and set the light in my closet for safekeeping, planning to put it out after the storm passed. It lit up as soon as I put it in the closet. After at least two days in the dark box, it was ready to go! I put it out the next day and it has worked great ever since. My neighbor's 8-year-old grandson Gizane remarked. "It's beautiful! And that is a word I don't use very often!" I agree. I plan to buy one for my mother for her birthday.

I have bought several for friends who are picky and they too have purchased more. You can never have enough of these bright, colorful solar spheres in your landscape. Everyone that sees them just loves them! I buy more each year and use a rechargeable battery charger to keep the batteries going once a year.

The glue around the globe that makes it attach to the stake on one of them has worn off, but its an easy fix. Would continue to buy this product

    These glowing orbs are so cool! My daughter gave me 3 of them a year ago and we kept them up all year-round and even in the dead of winter they were doing their glowing thing every night! They don't need much sun at all to keep them going.

    And so I have purchased many more orbs and have given them as presents to my family and friends. I have placed my orbs around my pool and garden, and even though they get watered every day in the garden, they still work perfectly!

    We swim in our pool at night and these orbs transform our entire backyard into something out of Better Homes & Garden! I LOVE THEM!!!

    I was looking for a solar light to provide ambiance in the back yard. These do the trick with a nice variety of changing colors. I would like them more if they were lower to the ground. I wanted something to put around the pool. The northern lights spheres aren't geared for a low-to-the-ground approach, but I found a spot along the fence where they work great.

    I bought 3 of these recently for a birthday gift for my mother. She LOVED them. She called me and raved about the fabulous colors they change to throughout the evening and how they were really something special and beautiful. Now let me add that my mother is notoriously hard to please. She has high-design taste and a home built by a famous architect, so she wouldn't just put something cheesy in her beautifully landscaped yard. It's very difficult for me to get this WOW Factor reaction from her. This is a very cool product. My mom wanted twenty more!

    These are very beautiful and stay lit up the entire night on a charge. Make sure to place them in an area where they get lots of daylight, otherwise they will not light up in the evening. They are very bright and colorful when lit. I have them 400 ft. from the road (I have a long driveway) and you can see them clearly from that distance at night. I gave one to my mother because she loved them so much. Everyone makes comments about them because they are very unique, bright and colorful. I have had mine for 3 months now and they are still going strong.

    I purchased a number of these as a gift for my mother in August 2008 and she promptly set them up throughout her backyard/garden. She loves them and watches them every chance she gets. She is always receiving compliments on how beautiful they are. During the peak of summer, the globes will glow until the early morning hours. Also, the globes are very durable. They remained out all winter and are still in very good condition. They are great for gifts. The only con that I can identify is that you need to be careful where you place them. If there is even a moderate amount of light from indoors or from flood lights, they will either not glow or will only glow dimly. Great product!

    I have about ten different kinds of colored/blinking solar lights, and these are among my favorite. I gave one to my mom for Mother's Day, and she loves it as much as I do. It reminds me of the "static ball" (the one that made my hair stand up when I touched the ball) in my high school science class. The colors are beautiful and numerous, not the usual three or four. Very bright addition to any garden, especially when you're having a lot of rainy days!

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    This was easy to put together, but be careful screwing on the globe, you could easily strip the threads. Had it out one sunny day and the light show was on that night! Goes through several color changes and holds each one about two seconds. Comes on at dusk and has been on as long as I've ever stayed up. The only drawback--The globe came unglued and I had to get some silicone glue to fix it but was pretty easy to do. I love lights so this is great for me. It's like a mini fireworks display in a glass ball. I have one in the front yard and one out back, I wouldn't see the need for "groups" of them.

    It is a little top heavy and the connection between the globe and the stake is not sturdy.
    Otherwise, it is very attractive. i only have one and would consider purchasing more of them if they were less expensive.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I ordered 8 N.L.S.s, they arrived today around 1pm, and were in the ground within a 1/2-hr. Though instructions said 2 days for battery charge, just after 9 pm the light show began! Every single one works just fine...whether they'll last through the night...? But I am VERY PLEASED with this purchase. How cool! I think the size is just fine, and for those concerned about height(too tall), just push it in further.
    One thing I thought about after they were already in the ground was that it might be prudent to glue the spike tip onto the lower metal stake-shaft, eliminating any possibility of it coming off when extracting it from the ground. Yes, the globes are fragile, so just take care when screwing them onto the upper stake-shaft: tight but not forced further than the threads allow...

    If these have any longevity to them, they are worth the price. Be creative and have fun you guys...little things like this can bring a lot of little joys

    I can't wait for the Waterbury Solar Fountain to arrive(less than 48hrs) which will be the ceneterpiece for this little 15'x15' flower garden in the front yard.

    Thank God we have enough rain in the ATL area this year for flowers and vegetables!

    Last Christmas I bought some of these for gifts, along with one for myself. I liked them so much, I bought 4 more! They look really cool clustered together. I have them in several pots on the deck. They get a full charge and last well past bedtime. One warning- the spun glass globes are fragile and can shatter.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    This light was a disappointment. The solar recharge did not work (even though we have 98% of all possible sunlight here.) The only way we could use it was to simply replace the battery every second or third day, which was a task. We tried several approaches to the problem. We might have been willing to replace batteries, but did not like the hectic pace of the light change anyway. Too bright, too fast. Not relaxing!

    The product is a good one! Lots of favorable comments from friends/neighbors. One of the three I purchased, doesn't light very well, but it is what it is. Looses the "charge" very soon after it comes on. The other two work great. It accents a dark area of the garden at night. No other lighting in this area.

    We clustered at least 6 of these lights in an herb bed on our patio. We can see them from our breakfast room every night, and the display is a continuous delight. The color-changing pattern constantly changes - and which light "fires" first depends upon the angle of the sun during the day. These are our favorite Gardener's Supply purchases!

    I had read some reviews on this product that mentioned some people were suprised by its size, so I wasn't suprised when it arrived (size is stated clearly in the add, also). But this thing is one of the coolest things in my yard now, and the displays it gives off are just awesome. Living in Wis, I had worries about its durability and amount of sun it would receive but no problems so far. If putting in your front yard, I'd make sure its secure as it wouldn't surprise me if someone tried to make off with it. I'd recommend it to anyone.

I was disappointed that the globe itself wasn't larger but the different colors makes up for this.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I use this multi-color changing globe to accent my back yard, garden area and deck area. I love watching the color changes, kind of relaxing to me. Would like to see it in a bigger size. Also think it would be beautiful lining a driveway or garden path. Very very nice product and came well packaged.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    Gave this as a gift but never saw it myself. My mother loves it but when she described the size I was disappointed. I thought it would be a bit bigger, but she says it's about the size that would fit comfortably in the hand, so it's quite small. Plus she'll have to remove it every time the lawn is mown, as small rocks or debris could fly out and break the glass globe. But she adores the colors, thinks it's a great gift, so I guess that's the best I could hope for. However, I've since seen cheaper ones at my local store. I might just buy one for myself.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    My Northern Lights are "planted" in amongst decorative grass in large pots on my front porch. Their changing colors are gorgeous at night (and the bulbs strangely attractive during the day). We love them, but would love them even better if they were sturdier. Three of our four lights have broken; the bulb can too be easily pushed down on the stem, breaking the LED and the piece that changes the colors of the light. I finally wrapped duct tape around the base of the bulb so it cannot be pushed down; that appears to be a solution, albeit a not very attractive one. Before broken, they all worked fine (even in winter), but they do require a lot of sunlight to shine more than a few hours. I recommend the lights--but with caveats about their fragility.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    Purchased one of these to try. After having for several weeks it has worked well thus far. Seems reasonably durable and the colors are bright and
    appealing in our yard. This is strictly decorative and does not put out enough light for illuminating
    walkways or anything. Also the effect would be nicer and more pleasing to view if the cycle through the different colors was slower and, the fade more drawn out instead of fairly quick and abrupt as it is.
    Other than these points, and whether it proves to be durable and weather resistant over time, these do provide a nice nighttime decorative element to yard or garden. Worth trying if thats what you're looking for.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I bought these as a Christmas gift for my mom. We set them out for several days to charge, but have been disappointed by the only a few hours worth of light emitted from the units (and we have had very sunny days). Also, the globe screws to the top of the unit. After checking it the other day, I noticed that the plastic threads had separated from the globe and will not hold the globe to the unit (I suppose Superglue might fix it). I have been pretty disappointed in these globes (I bought a set of three). Not worth the price

    I purchased an angel solar light last year from you as a gift to my Son. He installed it in his side garden and it has been beautiful all year. The quality was excellent. He put more solar outside lights for the garden this year on his Christmas list and while they are not installed in a garden yet, they were beautiful from what I saw on Christmas day. Dealing with your company has been an absolutely wonderfull experience from the very beginning of an order to the very end. That is a rarity in this day and age. Thank you.

    The photo in the catalog lead me to believe the Sphere was larger than what I received. It was very easy to install and was charged quickly but does not stay lit as long as some other solar lights I have in the yard. The color variations are attractive, though, and I am generally glad that I purchased the Sphere. I am considering purchasing a few more to place within my garden but will be careful to ensure that they receive enough sun light to fully recharge.

    These Northern lights are very pretty and the glass is of a high quality. However, the globe itself was a bit smaller than I expected for a[$] product. And out of the 4 I purchased, 1 came with a nearly dead battery which I had to replace to the cost of $8 within 2 weeks.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I LOVE this globe. It is beautiful and the colors are great all night long. I put out 7 in my garden in the spring BUT when I went to move them this fall the globes are just rotting and no longer sit securely on the light. The globes are extremely fragile now and will not survive much longer. All are in similar condition. There is no doubt that they will not last through the year. It is too bad. I would purchase replacement balls if they offered them. For the cost of this item though, it is hard to justify this for less than a year of use. A friend bought one at my recommendation and hers didn't last long at all.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I have 6 globes clustered at various heights in about a 3 foot area in my garden--the impact is fantastic, colors still bright at 4:00 AM and beyond. Very weather resistant, in spite of their fragility, even in our New Mexico winds and monsoons. Have had for about a year now and plan to get more.
    I think maybe 'online shopper' from MD just didn't know that he/she needed to find the on/off switch to activate. I have not had any problems with mine nor replaced any batteries yet.
    Would be great if replacement globes were available--my husband broke one!

    I put these in about 3 weeks ago. Only problem was one of the lights was already on automatic, so I had to change the battery which was easy to do. I bought 5 of them and they make our back yard so pretty. They worked the first night I put them in. I think the batteries were already charged. When I go to bed at night, the lights are still on, so they have been lite for 6 hours already. Can't say enough positive things about these lights and especially how pretty they are at night time. I have them throughout our landscaping. I live in Arizona, so we get plenty of sunshine and there has not been a problem with them during the monsoons either.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    Very easy to install. No one else in the neighborhood has anything like it. Not as bright as some low voltage lights, but does a good job. Also, much better for the environment. I enjoy sitting on the porch relaxing and watching the colors change. I will probably add more when I do my next outdoor project.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I have several of these lights and use them to light the way into the house. They are very festive and put out more light than my other solar lights.[...]One didn't make it and is broken. There was no cushioning at all. The bulb and the batteries are also hard to get to. This is also a feature that keeps them from getting wet and does a great job at it!

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    Really enjoyed the changing colors. It is a great eye catcher in the garden at night, however, when the product arrived, it had a crack in the base of the globe therefore the globe did not fit snug on the pole. I should have returned it for an exchange, but I slapped some glue on it and so far it is holding.

    I have 2 of these in my front yard within a circle of flowers and a bird bath and they put on quite a light show as soon as it starts getting dark. The lights are very bright, much brighter than what you would expect, it illuminates the whole area and the best part is that the light show is free. I wake up around 5:00 in the morning to go to work and they are still on!

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    These globes are an attractive alternative to plain solar lights as they add an ever changing parade of color long into the night. When planning for them be sure to allow an unobstucted view of the sun about a foot below the globe so sunshine will charge the light. I even had these along a sidewalk during an unexpected snow storm and they lit up the area beautifully.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I purchased two lights, and placed them side by side among the low ground cover in my flower garden so they would get plenty of sunshine. One light works very well. The other worked for awhile, but was considerably dimmer. After a few weeks it stopped working all together. I hope it will work again after replacing the battery.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    It was nice at first, but didn't run for very long after dusk, and didn't charge very well during partly cloudy weather. Then, my husband removed a couple of screws and replaced existing NiCad battery with NiMH battery, and now it runs for hours every night, and also seems brighter. My glass globe did come loose from the metal stake, but I just glued it back in place when I noticed that it wobbled a bit. A little trouble to fine-tune, but really super product once that's done. Worth the money!

    Fun Accent for the Garden - But Fragile

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I purchased three of the Northern Lights and put them in different areas of my gardens. The spheres are a clear glass and don't add much interest in the day, but they are a fun, whimsical addition to the garden at night. The solar power seems to work very well. The lights work through the night without losing charge. The spheres are very delicate, however, so caution is needed with handling and placement to avoid breakage.

    I gave these as a gift to a friend for her garden, and they're really pretty accents at night. The lights seem to change faster or slower depending on how much solar charge they've absorbed. They don't cast much light, so I wouldn't use them to light up a path, but as accents they're perfect!

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I bought this item for myself and several family/friends for gifts. In the begining, the colors were bright, colorful and easily seen. I thought the problem was just myself since my lamp had been through a few Texas storms. As it turned out, each one of my family friends who I gave the gift to, had the same thing happen. A couple months into enjoying this item, the glow was gone. The bulbs usually broke. In my case, the entire bulb snaped. But in other cases, the glow just quit.

    Comments about Northern Lights Sphere:

    I used these Northern Lights as an addition to my landscape in a large berm with a waterfall. I used these with the solar star lights for variety. I have only had them for a short period of time but have been thorougly entertained each time I see them. The glass balls are large enough to be seen from a distance and when grouped together are even more noticeable. I know they have lasted at least 6 hrs but haven't been awake longer to see how long they truly last.

    Although the other solar powered star lights with the interchangeable heads are nice and work equally well you can't distinguish the different shapes from a distance. The Northern Lights are your best bet.

    If you are planning to take the lights in and out of the ground during the seasons or bad weather I would suggest gluing the pointed tips to the stems. You can lose them in the dirt when you pull them out.
