User Ratings and Reviews
3 Stars Just OK overall - replace the batteries
These are nice when they work, and look nice during the day, but the batteries that it came with were pretty bad (mine did not work). I suggest replacing them with some better NiMH rechargeable AA batteries. The light output is good for what it is, but don’t expect “bright” light as these are LED lights and run on 3 AA batteries. I think it would have been better to run on more batteries for a brighter light or a longer run-time. It didn’t take long for one of the glass domes on mine to break so it wouldn’t stay attached well, but to be fair I do not know exactly why (perhaps my son or some landscapers caused it to break). I was able to fix it by using silicon caulk to “glue” it and keep the glass from falling out. I’m a little concerned about the longevity of the lights but hopefully they will last at least a couple of years.
4 Stars Malibu Solar Lights
Nice lights that light walkway. There is an on/off swith and conduint that runs from panel to each liight. Very easy to install. Low light that is an accent not a flood light.
4 Stars Just enough to light the walkway
The lights are very low, but it was just enough to light our side yard walkway. If you are looking for something brighter, these won’t be right for you. Easy to set up and charge.
NOTE; Since I first wrote this review the price has gone way up! I paid $50 for my first set and then bought a second set in the Gold Box for $30. That is what they are worth. Not the $194.99 it is certainly selling for. Wait for them to go on sale.
3 Stars Customer service from Malibu is not good
I purchased two sets of these lights, both were DOA. I contacted Malibu for help, but they never fixed the problem. I had to buy new batteries for both, they now work, but three AA cells to power 8 bulbs, what were they thinking?? They are well made and very “cute” but are for looks only.
2 Stars Still working
I have had 2 sets of these for about 3 months. The construction is nice but the light output is too dim. They do not throw nearly as much light as I expected (had hoped for). I’m still waiting for solar/LED products to improve to become really useful. Best I’ve found are the Malibu 3-Pack Solar Landscape Plastic Flood Light Set with Remote Panel, Textured Black #LZ413 and the Malibu Outdoor Solar-Powered Tiki Torch Light, 2-Pack #LZ604R2.

2 Stars Good solar lights
It illuminate the backyard and at night when there’re no lights turned on for outside illumination, these solar lights indicate that there are in fact garden and show some identifying marker where the boundary of the garden is. Other than that, it’s not enough illumination to use it as to light up any area. It’s not bright enough. Flimsy construction and made of thin metal and plastic and glossy paint. Good for the money though. Buy this package if you want to save money. Other products online are sold single pole at a time and those are fraudulent and will cost you more.
2 Stars Not quite perfected
Ordered 15 of these for my back yard. All lights get tons of direct sun (arizona sun) and yet they flicker and go out after 2-4 hours during the night. Not to mention that the clear plastic bits have turned a stained yellow after less than 8 months. Housings are durable and metal beautiful, but if lights don’t work , well whats the use? Not recommended
5 Stars Nice Accent Lights!
I receivedthese today and can’t wait to get them installed along the path to my Geodesic Dome Home! Thank You MartZ! Nice Product!Charlie in KYwww.KyDomeLiving.com

Glow in dark decorative garden stake
User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Much bigger (and prettier) than I expected.
I purchased this as a gift and thought that it would probably only fit well into a planter but I was wrong…the butterfly is as big as your hand and is a beautiful bronze color. While the glow in the dark effect is a little on the weak side, the beautiful blue/green swirling color of the ball more than makes up for it. I look forward to seeing this in my friend’s garden for years to come.
3 Stars Disappointing Decoration
The “solar” part of this is the good old glow-in-the-dark stuff that’s been around for longer than I can remember. Leave it in the light, it glows in the dark. On this item, a swirl of the glow stuff is painted on the glass globe. The rest of the globe is blue. The stake is more substantial than I thought it would be, which is good, but otherwise this is a mediocre decoration. It makes no impact in my garden. Perhaps if you purchase several and make a grouping you would enjoy it, but by itself it is not much of an accent.
