2 Stars Disappointing
As a garden ornament is is adequate.
Unfortunately, as far as it ‘illuminating’ it does not.
It is in full sun all day long and at night there is nothing
around it but a small landscape light and still it does not
glow. I called company and they said to move it to where it
would be in total darkness at night. Done. Still doesn’t work,
The ‘companion’ piece that we ordered was the Saturn Stake.
They tried to mail it to me two times but both times it broke
in transit and carrier just sent it back to Amazon. I decided
I’d had enough and choose not to try to reorder this one and
get my $ back as the first wasn’t glowing.
2 Stars Lovely, but certainly not “illuminating”
This is lovely. It looks delightful in the garden. But, as a previous reviewer noted, it absolutely does not glow in the dark. Not even a little bit. Our garden receives full sunlight all day; at night it is completely dark. (We live in a rural area; there is no light from neighbors or other sources.) Given these conditions, if an item can glow in the dark, it should. Yet this most certainly does not.
I did try the old glow-in-the-dark test of bringing it into a closet (in the middle of the day, after several hours of very bright direct sunlight) and closing the door. The only thing that glowed was the old Timex I was wearing…
Buy this as a pretty lawn/garden ornament. Just do not expect it to glow in the dark at all.
Also, mine was packaged very well and survived shipping with no issues at all. It was well-protected, with a multitude of bubble wrap, air packs, packing peanuts, and filler paper — not to mention a box-within-a-box arrangement. I think the UPS truck would have had to actually run over the thing to do it any damage. I ordered from Amazon, so Amazon is to thank for most of the hyper-vigilant packaging — but, to be fair, the manufacturer’s packaging was quite adequate to begin with.
5 Stars garden stake
I’m very impressed with this company. They sent me the wrong item at first, but then I contacted them via the phone and they let me keep the other item and sent the original order as well. The items both showed up in a very short period of time. I am very impressed and would use them again.
