    Half of the string LEDs stopped working, and Twinkly refused to replace because they only have a 1 year warranty in the US vs. 2 years in the EU.

      Hi there, thanks for your feedback.
      Warranty coverage is defined as per law, therefore it applies depending on what your country established, if the product is out of the validity time frame, unfortunately, we cannot make exceptions.
      I advise keeping in touch with my colleagues at the Support team, it's possibly something solvable with a thorough troubleshooting, or maybe just changing a spare parts if possible 😉
      Thanks! twinkly

    I wanted to get these last Christmas but they went out of stock. Purchased 2 sets a couple if months ago and could only test that they work. On the table they were able to sink and do random paterns. I will have to wait until the tree is set up to give a full review.

    My original 400 strand (purchased a yr ago) were great until a month ago. Twinkly updated the app. I bought 4 boxes of 600. None are working. Twinkly customer service (email only) asks you to perform numerous tasks & send a video of yourself doing it. Insane for the price. Best Buy should look at the comments on the app in play store. Its not just me.

    They look terrible outside. The brightness is misleading and the mapping takes forever.

      Hi Noah!
      We're sorry you're not happy with the product.
      As for the brightness, you can simply adjust it from the control panel on the app.
      The mapping, instead, depends on several factors, we'd like to look into this with you and help you improving your experience, so please reach out to our Support team at twinkly.com > Help > Contact Us! twinkly

      Dear Kerry,

      We are very sorry for the problem you are experiencing and we have tried to look for your ticket among our support requests, without, unfortunately finding it.
      If a string stops working, it may not be possible to fix it (luckily this is not always the case, it needs to be evaluated case by case).

      It doesn’t mean that there’s no solution: if the product is under warranty it has to be replaced.

      Contact the Twinkly User Satisfaction team through the Help section of our Twinkly official website and we will help you the best we can!

      Greetings twinkly

    Very expensive. Kind of cool. Died after 30 minutes. As you know, When your tree lights die, you have to remove every ornament from the tree to take the tree lights off. What a dissapointment. For such an extreme high cost, I'd expect decent quality control.

    Greta lights, but only lasted one season. Pretty expensive for an annual purchase. I purchased two 100 strings and two 600 strings, and both 100 wouldn't power on for their second Christmas season.

    Worked for a few weeks last year, packed them up and stored them (indoors). When I connected them this year they wont power on at all. This was on the the last day of the 12 month warranty. I contacted Twinkly support and after them making me jump through all kinds of hoops they finally agreed it was a hardware failure and suggested I return it to the store where I bought it. After dealing with support, I am now outside the 12 month warranty window and waiting to see how Bestbuy responds. Either way, these should last more than one season!

    I'm assuming that I just received a faulty product because I have 2 sets of Generation I RGB that turn completely white and have a full range of color. The white on the strings I received is a very noticeable Teal/Light Blue. I just had to use my previous set and return these.
