These are very bright. They're very simple to set-up and have a big impact even from a distanceThe star is the same Led lights as the rest and the lights are synced the same so unfortunately you can hardly tell the star because even matches and syncs together. I'll likely order a different star to highlight it better. Otherwise works as intended, hopefully it'll work next season.I am extremely happy with this purchase. The lights are very bright and colorful, and you can change up the way they blink. I’ve gotten many compliments from neighbors. I’ll be buying a few more sets!Adds a ton of sparkle to the yard with minimal effort to put up! Has multiple modes and lights are nice and bright!It's easy to set up. Beautiful as wellThe memory function that the manufacturer claims remembers the last setting when unplugged does not remember. When unplugged and plugged back in it goes through all 8 modes until you set it again. Really inconvenient!Cheaply made, 4 of the light strands broke off the star within 2 weeks.
