One of the wires broke, after putting it up on my tree. So instead of returning it , my husband put it together and now working. I just hate to return things especially after all the work I’ve done. In other words, it is with poor quality.The silver colored wire really stands out against our green tree. But, the biggest complaint is that there is NO purple colored bulbs on this strand, as the photo represents. That was the main thing I was looking for.I like them very well the wire was clear and I put them on a white Christmas tree and they just twinkle love it is about six functionsTimer not work out of the boxNot brightLove it for Christmas. I didn’t expect to love it for so much.
