Bought these for our Xmas tree this year. They looked great not too bright but did the job. For the price cant go wrong.I had trouble installing these - wrapping then around the branches of a stately weeping cedar because the bundles (two in a package) were difficult to hold. I kept dropping the bundles; they came apart when they fell and it was NOT fun putting back so I could continue wrapping.Mine are COOL white so I can’t comment on warmth - but the cool white is really cool white; just want I ordered.The lights have not been up long enough to assess durability. I can write that about six or seven feet of the last part of the strand do not light. They did not light when I first strung them and it was so annoying having to deal with falling bundles that I left the installation alone.All that said: two people could probably have much less difficulty stringing the lights.In spite of the aggravation, the lights are bright and vv pretty.Very soft pinkBought these to decorate my Christmas tree in honor of my new granddaughter. They look beautiful. Though i had them on the tree with white lights that were warm. I would next time try them with cool white lights because the warm white gave the appearance of yellow and the pink bulbs looked light purple. But living so near LSU the colors are beautiful!I paid a bit extra for these lights because they reminded me of similar lights I purchased probably 10 years ago. They lasted 10 years -outside in all weather elements. So the new ones I did the same. I wrapped both sets around my outside “all weather elements” deck rail. I only turn them on in the evening. They were up about 2 weeks before half the strand of one set burned out. Disappointing to say the least.I decided to purchase all new LED Christmas lights this year and decided to spend a little more for qualitylights that would last a few years. I purchased 5 boxes, 3 cool white and two red. I usually have them up the weekend of Thanksgiving. I checked them after delivery, all worked fine & the vivid color is good and they appeared to be decent quality. They were on a timer until I took them down the first week in January. After removal I carefully put them in individual piles to check for burned out lights as I replace & store them to be ready for the following season. At this time not even one of the cool white lights would come on at all, that is six strands of lights! The red lights only half of the strand comes on. It's not just the $200. of wasted money I spent as a retiree, it's the principal. I will contact Amazon next. So disappointedheadline says it all. didn't last the season as outdoor lights in a protected area.Because of the string’s configuration, I don’t have to worry about one light bulb shorting out part of the string. Well worth the extra cost.
