Yes I do like the color and the feel, but I had tile before so this is nice. No, I don’t feel like it is too orange.

The blonde parts go well with any home that has cream or beige as their neutral. Pics don’t really capture the look of it...they always look more golden and high contrast (stripey). It is more subtle in person. I liked Calypso Oak also, but wasn’t a fan of the shorter planks and the fact that it is WPC and not SPC.

Can you try something if just to rule it out? Inside the socket there is a little flat, bendable brass tab on bottom. Make sure power is off, then take a flat screwdriver and gently lift up the tab just a little bit (like maybe 1/8"). This tab needs to touch the bottom of the 'bulb' screw base. Then try your 'bulbs' again and see if they work.
