Minetom 33ft Plug in Star String Lights with Remote and Timer

These Star String Lights have been such a fun and cozy addition to my classroom! As a special education teacher, I try to create a calming and welcoming environment for my students—and these lights help do exactly that. I love that they plug in, so I don’t have to worry about constantly replacing batteries. The remote control makes it super easy to switch between different settings—whether it’s sparkle, flash, dim, or steady glow. My students especially enjoy watching the stars twinkle or fade gently; it adds a magical, calming vibe to our space. The warm white color is soft and not too bright—perfect for sensory-sensitive students. It’s enough to make the room feel inviting without being overstimulating. I’ve strung them along a bulletin board, but they’d look great across a window, bookshelf, or ceiling line too. The build quality is great so far. They’ve held up well with daily classroom use, and I appreciate that they’re waterproof too—just in case I want to use them outside for events or activities. The timer function is also a nice bonus if you want them to turn off automatically. If you're looking to bring some soft, decorative light and a peaceful atmosphere to your classroom (or any space!), I highly recommend these star string lights. My students love them just as much as I do!

I love these! They’re cute and they have a great range for brightness. Only con is the super bright light on where it plugs into the wall- that was not great the first night after I plugged them in- but it’s easy enough to cover with some dark tape

Update 1/31/2026: The company contacted me a day or 2 after my review, offering to send me replacement lights after the first set randomly stopped working. Couldn't be more pleased with their customer service and of the quality of the replacements (pictured). . . I ordered these on 6/6/2025, got them like a week later, absolutely loved them. They were perfect for my room, lighting it up beautifully and just enough. They were perfect, until recently (1/18/2026). Out of no where I am not able to turn them on. The receiver on the wall plug in lights up showing it's receiving power, so I have no idea why they won't turn on. I changed the battery in the remote, so maybe the remote is broken? The button on the plug in part does nothing besides set up the timer. So sad that these randomly stopped working after having them less than a year.

Very easy to set up and looks nicely

Update: the seller sent me a new set after learning about our experience and this one was flawless. I installed them without any problems or breaks and I love that they can be turned on or off with the remote. Original: These are super cute, but when trying to set them up, one of the wires snapped in half. Now they won't turn on and we are outside of our return window. We were very gentle with them.

I’m obsessed with these lights. I always keep them on. The stars are super cute, and I love how you’re able to connect more string lights if you have them. I love how you’re able to dim the lights a lot if you’d like with the remote controller. Im not a big fan or overhead, bright, and cold white lights. I’m very pleased with the warm color of these lights and I love them as ambient lighting. I strung them up in my dorm and I think they are perfect. 🥰

Bought these to hang above my bedroom window to have a cozy lighting option. They are perfectly bright without being too harsh and offer a warm presence. Installation can be tricky depending on how you want to hang a 33 foot set, but they were a breeze for me just hanging them on the curtain rod. They do not come with adhesive though, so be warned they will not stick to your wall. Battery life seems to be perfectly fine as I leave these on for a few hours in the morning and evening

The lights came neatly packaged in their box and the remote has clear instructions! i hung them up using the twist ties they came with and 2 extra ones i had on hand. they cover a lot of area as you can see in the photos! the stars are a good size and look and feel to be good quality. There are 4 brightness settings and I don’t think they’re extremely bright at their highest setting, but since there are so many of the lights it makes up for it. personally i’m not using them as an alternative for overhead lighting (for that i would buy a strong warm toned floor lamp) but for when i want some ambiance at night or on a rainy day they’re great. their warmth is a nice natural yellow color. the lights will only work if your remote is aimed at the responder, which will be where you plug it into the wall, so keep that in mind. there’s a good amount of extra wire on that end of the rope, so if you don’t want the lights where your outlet is, there’s some wiggle room :) the remote is pretty straightforward too. be warned the chasing/flash and twinkle/flash settings are kind of aggressive and i’m sensitive to flashing lights so i will Not be using those modes. but the slow glow and slow fade are nice for if you want some movement. but i think i’ll only use the steady on feature :) anyways, i think they’re worth the price and that their light is warm and soft!

I thought I'd do the helpful thing and write a review just to say that if you've been going back and forth between string lights options, you need to stop NOW and pick this one. I expected absolutely nothing from something that comes from who knows where, but BOY it delivered!! The pictures don't even do it justice. Maybe it's the settings on my phone that corrupt the colors but it's not at all yellow, it's a warm white, just like I was wishing for. And the light bulbs themselves are insane!! They're heavy because the plastic is full, not hollow. They're overall very well built. Like I wouldn't even be scared to accidentally step on them (ouch cause your foot doesnt win against the light bulbs) or drop them. The remote settings are also pretty cool!! It's time to brighten the livingroom yall 💪

They are beautiful, does it exactly what it says it does!! I would buy again. I was a little rough untangling them and a ball fell off, I pushed it back on and has been fine. Only thing that would make it better is there were more dimming options.

Love these lights! I ended up buying a second set too, as these are great for adding ambiance and warmth to my classroom! Highly recommend!✨

So beautiful! I would’ve given 5 stars but the remote that it came with doesn’t work. But all in all I would buy them again :)

Horrible quality. Came in a box already broken.
