They look bad (IMHO). Real bad. Call me a traditionalist, but the light pattern and luminescence oddly does not resemble anything like actual holiday lights. Zero vibes. The light (as obvious from even photos), is like a secondary light, meaning it throws it on your house, then you see the it projected on your house. I have to say after trying to get used to it for almost a month, it still doesn't look right to me.
To be fair, I'm a bit of a light snob and traditionalist. It bugs the hell out of me when people use anything higher than 4000k in living spaces (3000k standard, 2700k for serious chill vibes, 4000-5000k in bathrooms/utility rooms) , and put 6000k bulbs in their outdoor porch lights like they're planning to do cardiovascular surgery there one day.
To each their own , yes yes.. but GENERALLY speaking people are universally attracted towards certain types of light color and patterns, and ever since LED lightning went mainstream, it's all gone out of whack.
I actually find the vast majority of "standard" LED christmas lights to be pretty gaudy too. Attractive color temperatures have given way to RGBICW seizure inducing light. In of themsleves aren't evil or anything, but putting them in the hands of the general population who generally think "Bigger, brigher more colorful and more spastic is better, bigger spectacle!" basically makes the neighborhood look like it's glitching.
I imagine my neighbors spent close to 1k on the lights and another 500-1000+ on install, and I feel bad to tell them that it looks horrible (because they're great people). Right now they have them set to alternating red/white/green for christmas.. but in all honesty it looks like a lit up Mexican restaurant now (or Italian, take your pick).
It's just not right. Having any type of light by default does not make things look nice.. more often then not, it makes things look cheap and off. Lighting DESIGN is a thing.
Also, this price is a smokin' good deal.

If you are hardcore with waterproofing manual butt connectors and/or not needing the warm white - probably do just fine with the non-pros. But limited to 150 feet. Since driver module still unavailable sold separately.
Otherwise. Buy now - return to warehouse if you have true buyers remorse.
Also suggest downloading Reddit and subscribing to the /Govee thread. Lots of tips and tricks. Also research on question you may have. Learned a lot. Ultimately, it's a matter of your time, capability, what type of installation structure (eave/soffit), desired finished install/look, etc you want. I have a two story and said f-no to all the ladder work and rented a 50 foot boom for $400. Worth it's 4,500 pound weight in Christmas cheer.
Enjoy!

In between holidays,mine will likely be on the white mode throughout the year.
If I didn't already have mine installed, would've bought this, esp given the Costco return, if you do chicken out on the install.
