What is the declared size of the curtain garland Curtain 3x2?
The description most frequently indicates a size of 3 × 2 m (width × height). Variants of product listings with a height of 2.5 m and 3 m are also encountered; the actual height may differ and depends on the complete straightening of the strands.
Why is the height of the garland less than declared?
The height of the vertical strands depends on how completely the suspensions are straightened and untangled. According to practical reviews, measurements of approximately 2.2–2.3 m, 2.24 m, and 2.40 m instead of 2.50 m are encountered; therefore, before installation it is recommended to fully untangle and align the strands without tension.
What is the length of the power cord to the socket?
Reviews often mention a long power cord to the socket (a value of approximately 3 m is encountered). However, individual customers have reported that the cord was shorter than expected; therefore, the actual length may depend on the batch or configuration.
How many lighting modes does the garland support?
Reviews mention 8 operating modes (including steady illumination and flashing effects).
What is the light color of the curtain garland?
According to reviews, variants of cool white, neutral/bright white, and warm (yellowish) light are encountered. Discrepancies between expectations and the actual shade are possible.
Is a remote control included?
Some reviews mention a remote control in the package; however, more frequently it is stated that switching between modes is performed by a button or control unit located on the wire. The configuration may differ depending on the seller and the product version.
.Is it possible to connect several garlands together?
According to reviews, information is encountered regarding the possibility to “extend” the garland (presence of a plug or connector for connection). If your unit does not have a connector for sequential connection, such connection is not ïðåäóñìîòðåíî.
Where is the mode switching block/button located?
The mode switching unit is often located in the upper part of the garland, closer to the curtain rod or the êðàéíÿÿ strand. For this reason, switching modes may be inconvenient without the use of a stool or ladder.
Is the selected mode retained after switching off?
According to reviews, there are cases when, upon reactivation, the garland starts from the first mode. In certain cases, users switched modes by briefly turning the power off and on again.
How should the Curtain 3x2 garland be hung on a window or curtain rod?
Typically, the upper horizontal line is first fixed to the curtain rod, after which the vertical strands are gradually unwound and straightened downward. Reviews mention fastening with standard curtain hooks; if necessary, individual strands are additionally secured with adhesive tape.
Can the garland be hung behind tulle or a curtain?
Yes. This method helps conceal individual sections with non-functioning diodes and makes the illumination softer and more uniform.
Is the height of the garland suitable for ceilings of 2.6–2.75 m?
With a ceiling height of approximately 2.6–2.75 m, a garland with a height of 2.5 m may not reach the floor. Reviews provide examples of ceilings measuring 2.57 m, 2.62–2.72 m, and 2.75 m, where the length was insufficient to reach “to the floor.”
.What should be done if the garland has a strong smell of plastic or lubricant?
According to reviews, an odor may be present and, in some units, may persist for an extended period. Ventilation is recommended (for example, on a balcony), and use should commence only after the odor has diminished. In case of a persistent strong odor, it is advisable to refrain from operation in residential premises and arrange a return.
Does the garland heat up during operation?
Many users note that the diodes almost do not heat up; however, there are reviews mentioning noticeable heating. If the control unit housing or wire becomes significantly hot, a burning smell appears, or flashing does not correspond to the selected modes — disconnect the power supply and do not use the product until inspection.
Why do some strands or lamps not light up?
Cases are encountered where individual strands or several diodes do not function (sometimes “every other strand or every other diode lights up”). The cause may be a manufacturing defect, damage during transportation, loose plug contact, or a hidden defect that is difficult to detect in the wound condition.
What should be done if the garland does not switch on or stopped working shortly after purchase?
Check the power source and the tightness of the plug contact (reviews mention operation only when the plug is inserted at a certain angle). If the garland does not switch on, sparks, switches off spontaneously, or stopped working after a short period, operation should be discontinued and the seller contacted under warranty or defect claims.
Why does the garland flash “incorrectly” and then switch off?
According to reviews, cases of unstable operation (uncharacteristic flashing followed by shutdown) are encountered. This may indicate a malfunction of the control unit or contact issues. It is recommended to disconnect the product and arrange a return or exchange.
Is it possible to check the garland at the pickup point?
According to reviews, in some pickup points, opening or checking prior to receipt may be limited. If possible, verify operability immediately after receipt and before installation.
How should the curtain garland be stored to prevent tangling?
Store the garland in its original winding: first carefully gather the vertical strands, then wind the upper line. For fixation, soft ties or ribbons may be used without overtightening the wires.
Can the garland be used outdoors or on a veranda?
Some users have used the garland outdoors or on a veranda and reported that it continued to function after rain. However, the degree of moisture protection is not regulated in reviews; it is safer to use the product indoors or only if a declared moisture protection class (IP) is specified in the product listing or instruction.
.What numerical values are mentioned in reviews regarding this garland?
According to practical measurements and descriptions, the following are encountered: declared dimensions 3 × 2 m and 3 × 2.5 m; actual height of vertical strands approximately 2.2–2.3 m, 2.24 m, and 2.40 m; power cord length to the socket approximately 3 m; number of modes — 8; examples of room heights: 2.57 m, 2.60 m, 2.62–2.72 m, 2.75 m.

Both values are encountered in reviews. It is specified that the total length is approximately 9 m, of which about 6 m corresponds to the decorative section with balls, and the remaining approximately 3 m — to the power cord (extension) to the power source.
How many balls are included in the garland and what is their size?
One review specifies a quantity of approximately 40 balls with a diameter of about 1.5 cm. At the same time, other users note that the balls visually appear very small; therefore, the perception of size may differ from expectations.

Does the garland have lighting modes and how many?

Is there pronounced flickering and does it cause eye fatigue?

.Where are the operating modes of the garland switched?
Switching between modes (if available) is performed using a controller or control unit located on the wire near the power “box” or transformer.
What is the shade of light of the “Balls” garland?
Most frequently, the light is described as warm yellow. At the same time, reviews are encountered where the light is perceived as more white, and slight differences in shade between individual light-emitting diodes are noted.

Yes. Mounting accessories are frequently mentioned in the package: hooks, clips, or self-adhesive elements (“adhesive nails”). A specific reference to the presence of 9 fasteners is encountered.
How reliable are the standard mounting accessories?
According to reviews, the quality of the mounting accessories may vary. Cases are encountered where clips detach, while the adhesive layer remains on the surface. Reliability of fixation depends on the type of fasteners and the mounting surface.
Is it possible to connect or extend the “Balls” garlands?
Reviews mention the possibility of extending or connecting several garlands. Actual compatibility depends on the product version and the presence of an appropriate connector.
Why does the garland not operate from USB but works from batteries?
A case is described where the garland does not light up when powered via a USB cable but operates correctly from batteries. This may indicate a malfunction of the USB cable, connector, or power supply unit. It is recommended to test another USB adapter, cable, and verify the quality of contact in the connector.

Reviews differ: some users note a thin wire (sufficient for domestic use), while others, on the contrary, describe the wire as durable and not flimsy. The actual design may depend on the batch.
