    Fantastic! Our tree lights had been dying, but tree was in great shape. Much less cost to add Twinkly than a whole new tree and lights. REALLY LIKE the flexibility with Twinkly. Almost no one even noticed whether the ornaments have been put on. Created a playlist and just let her run.

    Wonderful until the near-2yr mark. Two lights have gone out and I expect more are going to follow. It hasn’t even been two years. I thought LED lights didn’t burn out, but I suppose that doesn’t mean the lights don’t stop working. A real shame I spent so much on these lights and they didn’t even last 2 years.

    Twinkly is soooo freaking awesome!!! I put these lights out for Halloween and they stay up for Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years!!! They are so easy to control and set presets for all the different holidays, all with one set of lights!!! Only reason for the 4* review is because they have a massive power adaptor and there are strands. Power is in the middle. Not an ideal setup.

    Mesmerizing Lightd

    Twinkly lights are mesmerizing. The sting set are attached in the middle (not as pictured being detached), which means you will have to arrange your lights from the middle instead of one end like traditional string lights. Setting them up in the app is quick and easy. You can even sync to music in the app without the dongle, but that means you have to keep the app open, so I bought the dongle too.

    These lights are awesome. I needed lights for my house, and decided to splurge, and I'm very glad that I did so far. It's nice to have virtually unlimited options as far as what you want your lights to look like whenever you want. They are a bit fragile and a pain in the neck to unravel, so be careful with that, but the effort is worth the final effect. I use them outside, and so far, so good

    If anyone plans on using these for inside your house like me rather than outside be aware they can make your room warmer if you choose to put them all in one room. Other than that they look amazing and the app lets you have total control of every individual light which is amazing. I use it for my gaming set up and I love them.

    This is my second set of the lights. My first set was generation one. Had two sets of 175, one set went out after two years. But really liked all the designs. So bought this set. Took me a while to figure out the mapping of the lights. Once I figured it out worked great. I did get the geek squad for four years also just incase they go out. Would recommend them though! Lots of fun

    Works really good especially if you get a lot of sets you can sync them with x lights which they don't really tell you that so if you want to do a light show with these lights you can and also you can get extension cord protectors to waterproof the controllers a lot better

    Best Tree lights ever.

    These things are cool. We had the best tree on the block and next year I will be getting more to do things outside. I would give 5 stars but the setup isn't as easy as you would think. We had to "Map" the lights multiple times to get it right but once you do they look amazing and there are so many cool scenes that the tree will play. I made a playlist and set times so every minute the scene would change. A little expensive but they are really cool if you want to amaze your family and friends.

    This lights are just Amazing. Love all the things you can do, the variation of colors and desings. Something different for your Christmas Tree. I do have a skinny 7 inch tree, I did think it was going to be to much lights but was more than enough. I'm sure that if the tree was fuller would have been enough too. Random thing I notice is that rearly they will turn on them self.
