    Easy setup. Resetting the device is tricky.....load up the YouTube video and turn on and off with the explanation as it takes about a minute or so, but worked like a charm.

    I live in a 1920s building so smart switches are out. These work great with Google home.... Um,@ 70% of the time. I can lay on bed and ask google or use my phone to adjust or turn off my lights but once a week.. They just won't connect for a few hours. So you have to hit the switches. Recommend with a large caveat.

    The lights turn on and the room is not dark so that’s a plus. However the app was hard to find ( they changed the icon). My Alexa will not find these lights even after installing the app on it. So they are just led lights for me.

    I'm not sure if it was just my wifi or not but I had two bulbs out of the 4 pack disconnect the day after installing them. There was one that wouldn't ever connect. There were no clear instructions how to reset and relink. I have other GE lights that work just fine. So I don't know if it was just a bad batch or what.

    Very nice to have in the more commonly used rooms in the house. I have them linked to my google assistant and have routines set up to turn on in the morning when I wake up, just before I get home in the afternoon, and turn off when I’m going to bed. Software was a Little buggy at first but an update to the bulbs and the app fixed that issue.

    Everything about these lightbulbs work... Except for the response time with Google Home. At best, any response takes a few seconds. Worst case scenario, they show as offline and you have to keep going at it to toggle the bulbs. Dimming and the actual operation of the light are fine.
