First, I have to point out the flocking on this adorable solar garden gnome. I've had other gnomes with flocking and it never ends well. The flocking will start to peel away after the first rain. But no so with this guy. I had him on my deck table all summer. He made it through heat waves, rain storms, and heavy winds. Not one piece of flocking is missing. That alone tells me that he is high quality.Light came on every night and lasted anywhere from 4 to 8 hours depending on the amount of sun we had that day. The light isn't very bright at all, but I didn't expect it to be.I'm very pleased with this gnome and highly recommend him for the gnome lovers out there.
