4 Stars Seems good
I am replacing a 250 watt floodlight with 2 of these fixtures. It is great not to be paying for electricity any more. The choice between full power or lesser power is nice for summer vs. winter lighting. A nice investment.
1 Star Disappointed
Purchased & came in timely manner. Had read all reviews and thought to be good for flag illumination. Received and setup and worked for a few days then quit. Tapped on solar panel and light would go off and on. Contacted support which was fast and fair and sent out new solar panel however received differnt model solar panel with 800Mah batteries and original was 1200Mah. Called concerned about brightness as solar panel was smaller and asked why sent wrong model. They said model should work and needed the 1200Mah and would send me some. Received 900mAh batteries. Go figure. Light working but as I said disappointed. Not sure if I were to get the right model whether it would work or be brighter. Answering Service good but questionable knowledge of product, product lousy.
1 Star Malibu Solar flood lite
I have had nothing but problems with this product! After the first 48 hours of charging it worked for 1 night. Then I had to replace the batteries. Its a solar lite?? Why do I have to keep replacing the batteries??? I have had no responce from Malibu and they are very hard to get ahold of so Im stuck with a product that sucks!
5 Stars Nice Lighting
I bought this floodlight about 5 months ago based on the first reviewers comments. I am quite happy with the amount of light this throws on a 30 saguaro cactus near my pool. I have been very disappointed with solar lights in the past, even just for accent lighting along a path. But this does a nice job of illumination - it lights up the lower half of the saguaro nicely, the top not so much. You can see the top half of the cactus, but it’s it a dim light. As other reviewers say, it’s not as bright as regular electric lights, but it does a good job. Also mine does NOT have the blue tint that other solar lights have. This is great for a portion of the yard where it’s impractical to run electricity. I have an acre yard, and I have no desire to run electricity all over it, but I do have seating areas and visually interesting areas around the yard that I want to accent at night. I will be buying more of these for that purpose.
4 Stars Great item if you know how to use it
Very easy to start & use, It’s very bright, but you can’t have any light shining on the solar panel at night. The brightness of a light dims the flood light eminating, so keep the solar panal away from a streetlight or any light at night.

1 Star No size info
I don’t have a review. I was thinking of buying one but it doesn’t say how big it is.I have a feeling it’s very tiny.
4 Stars Really nice!
These lights are very nice. They are pretty and last a good while. I have had 6 of them for several years now, and still enjoy them very much. Of course, as with any item like this, some are going to short out. Of the 6, I’ve had two die on me recently; I believe the bulbs have shorted out. So now I have 4 left, and if I could figure out a way to fix or change the bulbs, I’d love to.
To the person who “reviewed” for no reason other than to mention he/she was thinking of buying them but thought they would be tiny, they aren’t tiny at all. They are actually about 16 inches tall from base (not including spike) to top, and the lighted part is about 11-12 inches of that. The “bubble” effect is also very cool. Only problem is they don’t last as long after you own them awhile. When I first bought them, they’d still on until about 5 or 6 in the morning; now, they last until about 2. If you want a really bright solar light that doesn’t fade, try the Starburst LED color change lights - however, they only change from red to blue to green, but they are quite bright.
My only complaint is price. C’mon, it’s a solar light! Just to buy enough to line the sidewalk could cost you hundreds of dollars at this price. I haven’t bought them from this company myself, as I had bought a bunch of them for myself and for gifts when they were super cheap in the Solutions catalog, before Solutions quit carrying them.
Anyway, give this light a try if you can find it cheaper. It’s definitely eye-catching and worth having in your yard!
1 Star not as expected
This looks nothing like the picture. It does glow in diff colors but it very difficult to see the colors even though fully charged. Not worth the money at all. The floating color changing ball is much better get that one.
