LED lights, would think they should last much longer

Just like anything else there are good led's and there are cheap led's. I figure the builder probably used the cheapest thing he could find.

I have been buying GE's and I dont think one has failed yet. The oldest is in the post lamp in front of the house and its probably going on 5 years old ? Its on a photocell so if its dark the light is on.

I understand what you're saying about LED lights—they should last forever. Well, not exactly, but they should last way longer than regular bulbs. It could be a quality issue if yours aren't up to the hype. Cheaper LEDs sometimes cut corners, so they don’t last as long as expected. Also, things like heat, power surges, or even how often you switch them on and off can affect their lifespan.
When I switched to LED lamps, I looked for reliable brands. One I’ve been happy with is https://www.sunmory.com/ . They make stylish lamps with built-in LEDs, and the quality feels excellent—mine have lasted for years without trouble. Plus, the designs are lovely if you care about your space's appearance.
