These LEDs are fantastic. I’ve had mine (warm white) on my tree for two weeks now and they look fantastic. All three strands worked and were perfect for a 6.5-7 ft tree. I get all the advantage of LEDs with the exact look of the mini-white lights that I grew-up with. When I tested them (still on the reel) I was a little nervous they might be flickering since fluorescents really bother me but on the tree they look fine and no headaches so I think it was just that 200 tightly wound lights were a bit much. They are a little whiter than some of the “warm LEDs” but not blue at all, just not as yellow as some; closer to a true white. My only concern is that I can’t find any place to buy replacement bulbs for them. They do come with two extra bulbs each and none of the 600 were burned out, but still, it would be nice to be able to buy replacements. This was my first purchase from American Sale, and they shipped within the 5 days as stated and were helpful on the phone. The 5 yr warranty sounds great, hope I don’t need it and likely won’t be worth it since you have to pay to ship the broken reel to Sylvania (hopefully they send you the new one for free). Despite no way to buy replacements (I almost gave 4 stars for that), I wouldn’t hesitate to buy these again. They were exactly what I wanted – classic look with LED advantages (no glass (the bulbs are plastic), cool temp, and use little electricity).

Nice product, that lasts 1 year. Long length is a plus, but wires break easily and their warranty is poor. I wasted $30 for 1 season of lighting.
