This was my chance to have oneof those lights that my neighbors have and at a discount, so I went for it....Wow! I thought to myself, well, I am going to be in the loop with everyone else, but I am going to have one for all different occasion...Yeah! Right, wasI suprised. I opened the box to see what I had and with 16 pattern slides, I figured all the holiday's My house is going to be the "BEST" house on the block! I saw all the slide and went through them and started putting themm in to see just what I got.....The patterns are 4 to a slide, rotates in a circular motion, but does notcover much of the house even when you move it way back. The projected images get distorted and it is very hard to tell what it is. This was not worththe money. It is a good concept, but the execution is POOR! I would not recommend this item to friends and family at all....I will see in Februarywhat it looks like outside for Valentines day...I am not returning it, because I have small children and there is a Birthday slide I can use in the house for birthdays...Kinda makes you mad that this is crappy! Oh Yeah! The cord is noce and long, stakes for outside, not very bright, enough sildes that include birthday,christmas, halloween, thanksgiving, women's day, st. patty's day and more...there is even a sale slide for your flea markets....but just not enough coverage.
