The workmanship of the HAUSPROFI rope light is very good overall. The tube itself feels sturdy and of high quality and the LEDs are evenly positioned to ensure uniform illumination. The cable is flexible and can be easily bent into different shapes without breaking or losing its shape. The plugs and connections also make a solid impression and are well made. The appearance of the light cable is appealing and unobtrusive, so that it can be easily integrated into different environments. A particularly positive feature is the pleasant light color of the LEDs, which produces a warm white light that is not too bright. Overall, the workmanship and appearance of the product is of a very high standard and leaves nothing to be desired.

The manufacturer keeps its promises in many respects. The quality and functionality of the HAUSPROFI rope light are just right. The advertised flexibility of the product is actually fulfilled, the tube can be easily adapted and used in different areas. The energy efficiency and long service life of the LEDs are also as advertised, which underlines the sustainability of the product. The IP44 protection class for outdoor use emphasized in the advertising is particularly important in practice, as the rope light can also be used in light rain without any problems. However, we would like the manufacturer to provide more precise information on the maximum number of connected light tubes. Overall, however, the HAUSPROFI rope light largely lives up to its advertising promises and is a recommended choice for decorative purposes.
