Pros:
1. nice thick twisted double-stranded string( not all solar sets have this ( 2 out 4 brands that I own have them)
2. multicolor includes white bulbs ( not all multi color sets have white, included among the typical (red, green, blue, yellow) bulbs
3. **The description doesn't indicate it, but these are built with a replaceable (AND) rechargeable (AA) size back-up battery (a Great feature with solar lights, it allows you to replace the battery yourself and get good illumination even on cloudy days. Be watchful of lights built with a permanent lithium batteryyou can not update/replace these yourselfif you live in a year-round sunny place, maybe you won't mind as much. Otherwise, stick with rechargeables that can be REMOVED.
You'll need yourself a battery charger to recharge your batteries when they're not recharged by the sun.
Cons:
1. A 60 bulb/ 26' string is not that long (you'll get it around a very small bush/ tree or around 1 side of a very short railing)
2. it is too expensive for the size
3. the blinking feature (i do not like) it just blinks very very fast. I have a set from a different manufacturer that slowly blinks, then shifts through each color,then blinks fast and continues this cyclea much nicer feature.
4. The switch to turn it from steady to flashing or completely OFF is placed directly under the stake "pad" (not a major problem) would be easier if it remained under, yet to the side of the panel.

After having spent almost a 100 dollars on long strands of solar lights with a large light sensor... and having them get water logged in three months and dying on me, I'm pleased that these have so far lasted a whole year. I've order more to drape along the fence on my patio. Just a note--these are intended for ambiance, not light. They are so atmospheric. I also have these on two alberta spruce trees and they look so lovely at night.Best Deals for Solar Multicolor LED Christmas Lights
I was a bit skeptical about ordering this set of lights, however they arrived well packed, and they are very nice. Very small multi color LED's about 1/4" inch long. Durable double twisted electrical cord. The solar power base comes with a 12" stake. We used this set of lights to decorate a 3 foot tree that is quite a distance from the house where we didn't want to run an electrical cord. A small tree or bush is about the most you could decorate with this small set. I didn't realize the set also had "flashing light" option and regular static setting. I like the flashing! Shipping was a bit slow, but I suspect that was due to the holiday mail rush. I do feel the lights are a bit over priced at $19.95, not including shipping. I would buy more if they were less expensive. They are the only multi colored solar set I could find on Amazon at that price. The other Christmas solar lights listed here are even more expensive.Honest reviews on Solar Multicolor LED Christmas Lights
AwesomeThis is the best solar light ever.
I bought this light to use in my yard but when I received it and see that is works with a rechargeable AA battery I had to experiment and it WORKS.
I put the light in my house and I cut a piece of cardboard and paste it over the face of the unit so it won't charge the battery.
I put in a regular AA Duracell battery and put it to flash mode and it FLASH FOR 7 DAYS AND 7 NIGHTS before the battery went dead. Believe it I was amaze. So I am using it indoor and replace one AA battery every week. What more than that could you ask for. No electricity and my lights work perfectly.
If you cover the solar panel and leave the small glass like bump open and you have enough sunlight in your home then it will turn off during the day and on in the night. The battery will last double the time.
Make sure if you buy its the one with the Changeable AA battery.
