Default Quality Low Voltage Landscape Lighting ?

Does anyone here know of a high quality brand for low voltage landscape
lighting ? I have tried and tried fixtures from the big box stores , but
they are very cheap and seldom last more than one year.

I have not tried any led low voltage lights because I don't want the
bluish, garish look they cast.

Any tips on quality brands ??

Thanks !!

Try a lamp store, which is where I got mine some 5 years ago. I have
also seen sturdy fixtures at a store that specializes in lawn and garden
hardware (primarily irrigation systems, no plants).

Buy fixtures that are metal and glass without any plastic.
