Deluxe High Impact Resin LED Flashlight, Red

Very low quality product - sorry.

Bought this Dorcy flashlight "Deluxe High Impact Resin LED Flashlight, Blue" (that's copy & paste there, taken directly from the webpage). Christmas present for my wife, replacing her old (blue) one that lasted forever and which she loved. "Blue" was great. (I noticed red was sold out.) All the pictures showed red or blue, but there was this one sneaky little picture showing the item in black. Guess what came in? Yep, black. Shame on Home Depot in this era of Covid, taking advantage of the remote shopper. This mistake does not get made when the customer goes to the store, so why should it be made when the customer has no recourse? Returning it is not practical. I called Customer Service, and a very nice man offered hassle-free return/replace. I declined that offer because I feared I would receive another black flashlight. The representative agreed that this was a possibility. It looks like there will be a black flashlight under our tree. About the flashlight, it is cute, small, and easy to handle. Personally I find it to be quite dim, but the upside to that is that the batteries will last for many hours of light. At this price ($5.10+tax, shipping included) it is the sort of buy that will appeal to the thrifty amongst us. Only two stars because in this case the color of the flashlight was important, so even though the product itself deserves 5 stars a judgment of "Fair" is rendered.

Obviously, the material shell is cheap thin plastic but then the price is commensurate with the cosmetic quality. However, the lamp part of it projects a very bright white strong light which is most important anyway. I suspect the thin material will cause the flashlight to break easily eventually.
