I've only taken a close look at the CSC lights once, and here's why I didn't take to them: there seemed to be a general sameness to all of them. Whether it was the vegetation or the colors, I don't recall, but they simply didn't seem as distinctive as Harbour Lights. I like how each HL piece has its own character, whereas the individuality of lighthouses scultped by CSC seemed smoothed over. Also, there was a bit too much of a "cutesy" factor with the CSC lights. Just one person's opinion, but to me the CSC lights seem more like the Legacy Light sign by Harbour Lights.
