How do I get good quality led Christmas lights?

Do you test them before putting up? That's what I do. That way I can replace the burned out bulbs with a minimum of effort. Sometimes the just need to be popped out and put back in. And any time I purchase a new string or type of light, I also get a bunch of replacement bulbs. All my lights are ancient, at least 15 years old. I still use the gumdrop lights a girlfriend gave me from an after Christmas clearance sale at least a decade ago. My brother still has several strings of the old fashioned lights my parents used on their house in the 60's.

We bought our lights at Walmart and they have been going for 4 years now.

You need to look for packages that tell you how many lumens and whether or not they'll continue to stay lit if 1 goes out. Stick with major manufacturers with Good Housekeeping seal of approval for best results.

Hi Ellen! I am sure you can find the lights that work well for you. Here is some information for you. Good luck. Have a Merry Christmas.

A string of top-quality, professional grade Christmas lights can reasonably be expected to last for roughly 6 or 7 seasons. That assumes that the lights are removed and stored during the off-season, and not left up year round. Leave them up all year and you can reduce the expected lifespan to the 2 to 2.5 year range. But keep in mind that if you live close to the ocean, you can expect to reduce the life of your light sets by up to 50%.If you buy LED lights that are of lesser quality — and particularly if you buy cheaper lights that are of a 2-piece design, where the bulb can be removed from the socket — you can expect a far shorter lifespan. It's not entirely unusual for a cheap string of LED lights to fail even to make it all the way through the first season of use.

So good quality lights, used seasonally, can reasonably be projected to last for 6 or 7 seasons.
