Gardenreet Brass Landscape Lighting - Outdoor Low Voltage Spotlights Wired, MR8 Low Light 12V LED Uplights, Waterproof Spot Lights, Bronze for Outside Shrub Without Bulb (4 Pack)

Bought these to replace too olld Keichters. Really like these. Nice clip to hold the lamp in place. Solid casting, good weight. Design has a screw on cover with curved lens and an adjustable length and rotating light diffuser with flat lens to distribute light and eliminate glare. Really nice design. The only concern I have is if the enclosed/ screw down cover will result in the lamp over heating due to lack of air flow - ie LEDs produce heat even if they are low wattage and heat reduces the lifespan of LEDs.

Was initially hesitant buying something sight unseen at such a different price point than you'd find in big box stores or the local garden supply, and I was doubly hesitant when I saw that these had plastic stakes just like the others, since I live in the desert and our soil isn't the most friendly. But after reading reviews and recommendations on professional landscaper forums, I took the chance on these and I'm glad I did. You can feel and see the difference in quality that big box items, and even the plastic stakes aren't the flimsy ones I expected. All of it is solid in the hand, machined well, and at least appears to be waterproof. (I do live in the desert though... so they've only gotten the hose test so far.) I bought twelve and I've installed ten so far, and they've been running for a month without issue. All of them were of consistent quality and gave me no assembly or connection problems. Being an amateur, I was also wary of what wattage to use since pictures don't really give the uh... full picture, if you know what I mean. I settled on the 5W at 2700K and it was perfect - warm and bright but not too bright. The attached photo is a reference, but I think the photo is actually a little brighter than it actually appears to the eye. All in all I have no buyer's remorse at all, and they've greatly enhanced all the new landscaping that's been done around my home. UPDATE - 9 months later they still look and function as good as new

Really well made light at first glance the bulb was a bit too warm (yellow) for my taste so maybe choose to buy the bulb separately when you order or buy one before you place a larger order. In the photo you can see the Gardenreet path lights. The trees to the left are gardenreet spots. The two to the right of the photo are a different brand of light with non replaceable bulbs (more natural but less bright). I’m going to dim the up lights when I’m finished

Really happy with the build quality so far. Easy set up - easy adjustment. Bright and warm light. May need a dimmer to dim. Also purchased path lights - thought they were too dim, but at night they were perfect. Highly recommended compared to much more expensive "professional / architectural" lighting brands.

If 10-stars was available, I would rate the Gardenreet lights as such. They are such high quality but also so beautiful in design! And so happy they do not use the integrated LED lights which was so frustrating with my prior lights. Once the LED lights no longer work, you have to throw out and replace the entire light. Bad for the environment and such a waste. They also have a great customer service team.

I needed to replace a light from my pretty expensive low voltage landscape lights and was really surprised at how much a single fixture from the name brand place cost. These look almost identical and give off the same light, and maybe 1/3 the cost. Recommend!

Folks, this is a follow-up to my original review below. Bottom line is I added another star to the review, and probably deserves 5 stars for the top notch customer service I received post sales. Olivia of Gardenreet contacted me immediately providing a replacement light at no charge! Further, Olivia very politely asked for my support to provide information to improve their processes. I love the process improvement mentality, and I would say this company went the extra mile to make it right for me and future customers. I will buy again as I now see exceptional customer service along with a high quality product. I ordered 2 bronze colored lights. I received one bronze and one black. Also, one box included a lamp and instructions. The second box included no lamp nor instructions. I don't want to go through the trouble of returns, so I will just keep both colors and eat the cost of the lamp. The units will be close to each other, so I hope I don't regret this decision. That being said, the units appear to be well made and have an appropriate weight for being made of brass. Too bad, the product is over shadowed by poor picking and missing parts. This is why I prefer to buy products I can see and touch before purchasing. Delivery was on time and without any visible damages.

I bought this to replace the very expensive garden lamps, after 2 years it still working perfectly

Love the lights! Great, great quality!

I have installed about two dozen of these lights in the garden. I shine them upwards on the tree trunks for subtle nighttime yard lighting. They are well-made and have lasted a couple of years In in service. You can replace the LED if it burns out. One has. They produce a very warm, yellowish orange glow.

It's a very solid constructed light.
