“Incredible quality. Lovely small size and super bright. These look so beautiful at night and several people have purchased them after seeing mine.”
Blending effortlessly into an outdoor space and creating an ‘absolutely stunning’ ambience, shoppers are transforming their gardens, balconies and patios with these hanging solar lanterns. Hailed as ‘looking more expensive than they are’, Amazon customers can get a set of two lanterns for £23.99.
The hanging garden lights are designed with a wider monocrystalline solar panel, with the brand claiming the solar panel is able to convert sunlight into electricity 20% more efficiently than ordinary solar lights. Shoppers are confirming they even work throughout winter, making them ideal for unpredictable UK weather.
No wiring or electricians are required, the solar garden lanterns just need to be turned on and placed on any surface or hung using the steel handle provided. The lamps will add a beautiful glow to the garden when the sun sets, giving a relaxing and cosy atmosphere to the space.
Whether hosting World Cup parties late into the evening, barbeques or having a solo summer unwind outside, the solar lanterns offer both style and practically. Even when they’re not switched on, the lamps have a chic and traditional design, adding elegance to the garden.
Shoppers note the solar lanterns as very durable, with many people still using them years later. Someone said: “Love these – got them hanging in garden and they are very effective. Have survived the winter!” The lights are IP65 waterproof so they are resistant to all kinds of weather, including rain, frost and sun.

Amazon have not detailed the light’s measurements, and some people have said they are too small for their liking. Someone commented: “Arrived on time. These lanterns throw out a really bright light and look to be well-made. My only complaint is that I thought they could have been a bit bigger, but I would buy again.”

Another Amazon customer left feedback that says: “Lovely little lanterns that have worked very well from the off! They only charged for about 3 hours in winter, dull afternoon daylight, and came on as soon as darkness fell, and have worked every evening since!
“That’s through torrential rain and wind. Have other solar-powered lights that have failed in the same conditions. I recommend these if you just want some pretty warm glowing lights to light up a dark space (I have them on either side of my front door, like hanging baskets.”
