I got this solar light for a dark corner of my back yard. I don't need it daily but I wanted to have some illumination for the times we sit outside or have company over. It took me a good 2 days to figure out that you have to press and HOLD the button for it to come on but that could have easily been my own issue with not reading instructions. The light is a cool, funky shape that I enjoy looking at but it isn't very bright. At first I thought it was because it needed to charge longer but even when it's charged for days it doesn't get very bright. It's a nice little light and although I have it just placed on the ground, it does come with everything you need to mount it to a surface.
