The simple solar-powered lights are already lighting up the lives of many fans. They have been leaving rave reviews to assist fellow shoppers.
One shopper, named as 'Unicorn mad’ leaves the review, 'Looks fabulous at night! Bought these for my daughter for the garden, and they are beautiful at night when they are lit up and changing colours'.
Another says, 'Prettier in real life. These add a real wow factor to the garden - very happy with them'.
‘Gem2907’ tells shoppers, ‘I brought some originally in-store then wanted more so brought more online. These are absolutely stunning unique little lights that my daughter loves in the garden as do I. They light up really well and have a beautiful image to enjoy on them as well.’

The short video featured on the George Instagram homepage shows how the lights really come into their own after dark. Charging all day in the sunshine, they retain enough power to light up and shine bright once the sun sets.
The mesmerising video, shared only 3 days ago, has been viewed more than 24,300 times and attracted 78 comments – pretty much all in complete adoration.

And one five-star review of this fruity foray into the world of lighting – which measures 7.05m (solar panel to first light 3m, lights 4.05m) – was also equally as glowing, saying:
'Excellent quality. Look more expensive than they are. Love them'
We've seen the pineapple trend conquer everything from ceramics to cushions to 'Christmas trees', and this incarnation has definitely got our seal of approval. The contrast between the gold lighting cage and the vibrant green in the pineapple crown is bound to draw admiring glances from your roll call of guests. It'll also double up as a talking point once the buffet spread and supplies of beer and bubbly start running low.
