    I'm very happy with my purchase, I don't need to install additional apps on my phone, I can use my Google home app to set up and control my devices, and that's a super Plus! I'm not sure how long they will last but so far I'm loving it! 100% recommended.

    It doesn’t integrate well with Alexa. Every few days I have to go into the app and fix it. I have updated firmware, deleted and reinstalled app, and some other things but we still have problems with it. It works fine from the C by GE app but we keep having issues trying to use it with Alexa.

    I like the concept but the bulbs get to hot for me. I had them in for 15 minutes and was already almost to hot to touch. I tried in different lamps to make sure it wasn’t for bad wiring. But nope. I liked the smart plug though.

    It is so nice to be able to turn lights on and off from anywhere. My favorite thing to do with them is automation. I have my fun turn off in the middle of the night, and I have my lamp slowly brighten over 30 minutes to gently wake me up in the morning. 10/10

    Went to Best Buy before Christmas with my son to pick out the addition for the Google mini. He thought he was picking it out for his Dad, so he picked just the right product. But on Christmas morning I had the package wrapped for him for his Google mini
