this item is useful especially with the covid-19. Only issue is once every blue moon some of the lights have issues connecting and won't turn off verbally.

I had read that smart plug worked as a hub (it doesn’t) and so I haven’t been able to link these to my smart speakers. Other than that they work great

I really like them. Once you get them set up they work great. I’m waiting for the day the prices come down though. I’m not old they are worth the price tag.

Very convenient. Having trouble setting up plug. Still not set up. I think it’s the distance from the router. This was a new experience and I’m happy.

My family and I love these products. It is so awesome to walk in or out the door with your hands full and just ask google to turn on the lights, or to tell google to turn the light off when you are already cozy in bed. The smart plugs were very eady to set up, The google nest mini is so user friendly. Just remember to not use the switch for the light, it might throw off the voice on and off.

This is another good product in the C by GE LED group, however the bulbs need to be used with the GE Smart Plug which acts as the hub.

They do not stay connected well. They kept dropping the WiFi connection and were a pain to keep set right. They also list that they work well with Apple HomeKit and they don’t. Not unless you have the C-Reach (sold separately) and even then that is only for the bulbs and not the plug. I also don’t like how in the GE app it has the bulbs and plug in different sections to control.

This is a great product and works just as advertised. I bought it to gift my elderly relatives for holidays. They are using Google Assistant to control all the lights and the entire setup just works flawlessly. They are very happy with it. It's very convenient for them to control all the lights just with the voice or a tap on their mobile. I highly recommend this product to anyone.

Sometimes they lose collection randomly from Google Home App but I am not sure if it's the bulbs issue or the Home App issue.

These lights can be added directly to google home and need no hub. They function well with voice commands and turning off the switch doesn’t reset them.
Very decent bulb if you don’t want to pony up for the Hue system with needed hub and expensive lights. To be fair, Hue is worth the price, but if you don’t want to pay it these lights are a terrific substitute.

I brought these lightbulbs after buying my alexa and seething that they were compatible with alexa so i tried it on a whim and i must say i am very impressed!! I like that i can tell alexa to turn on and off my light and i live the fact i can dim the brightness and put them on timers. Plus its great for when you work late and dont want to come home to an empty house
