Mutovlin 2 Pack String Light Poles,10 Ft Light Poles for Outside String Lights,Outdoor Lights Pole with Fork,Metal Poles Stand for Patio Deck Backyard

These worked great for our backyard! We just set them up so not sure how sturdy they are just yet but they look nice and were easy to install! Great height also!

Sturdy and easy to anchor, take out and move. Just what we needed.

We have LED outdoor string lights (the larger "restaurant" style) around most of the backyard and run them every night. Properly dimmed, it makes the yard more inviting for the dogs and less so for the various critters around here. And it's just kind of pretty. I needed a couple of poles for one area where there is no natural tree branch to support them, and dug through all the Amazon models before settling on these, which looked to have a robust system for spiking them into the ground, which was what I needed. These have worked about perfectly. They are solidly built, screwed together properly, and are straight and strong when assembled, which did take a bit of fiddling. There are instructions, but you have look carefully at which pieces are threaded "out" or "in" to get the middle pieces in the right order. The top sections have screws to secure the wire brackets, but one of the poles did not have the screw holes fully punched through, although this was not a huge deal in that the screws still tightened down well enough. The U-shaped wire support brackets on the top ultimately work, but are a little weirdly designed. I believe you are supposed to fit the wire through two flat pieces that fit between two bolts and sit at the bottom of the U, but instead of fitting all the way on the bolts, there is a hole on one end of each flat piece, and an open slot on the other. It all works well enough when you tighten everything down, but leaving one end of the bracket open keeps it from fully securing. This might be a safety measure so that if the pole falls down, it may allow the wire to slip free, but the instructions did not say and it's not an ideal design. However, my wires have stayed in place for several months now with no problems, despite winds and rain aplenty. I did have to set them up again once when my own tree trimming knocked one down, and it was a little awkward but nothing was broken, and the wire was not damaged. The star feature in my opinion is the ground stake system, which has long, strong spikes and has a very solid additional set of spikes that folds perpendicular to the other spikes to form a large "X" at the base. Stomp these down into reasonably solid earth and they aren't going anywhere easily. Overall these are quite solid and should hold your string lights securely. The black poles virtually disappear into the background, and are invisible at night, so they look fine as well. I am deducting a single star because the wire mounting system is slightly wonky, but they do work and I would buy them again, and will get more if I need them. Four spiky stars

This was perfect to pair with my solar light set around my pool! Very impressive way to light up the dark and make a striking statement in the process! Assembly was so easy!

Easy to assemble and very sturdy. We've had them up for almost a year, through so many storms, and haven't had one problem with them. Highly recommend!

Love these! The height is adjustable and I am not a giant so that was nice to be able to do. They have really good control. We recently had a heavy windstorm and they held up really well without being mounted or stuck to anything. Our yard is fenced so I'm not sure how they would do otherwise, but so far they are great! The water doesn't seem to have damaged or rusted them at all over the last year, and they haven't had to be adjusted or fixed once. Definitely worth your money!

Lightweight poles, stand up well even using the stake bottom into the ground. Problem is, they advertise 10 ft and it’s only 9 ft. Would be nice to have that extra foot!

Held up beautifully all summer. We just took them down for the winter. Held up to many storms and the lights still work perfectly. The solar panel is at one end, so just choose carefully to place that end toward the side of your yard that gets the most sun. The brightness was perfect and not overbearing like electric options.
