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.

Assuming you are willing to pay for it, commercial lighting is probably
going to be the best choice. Something that might be used for an office
building for example.
