I love nano leaf but the first product i got wouldn't connect to HomeKit but BB sent me a replacement and it worked great. Didn't like to remove it off the walls as the paint came off too

They are the best purchase for relaxing in my massage chareg. The ambiance puts me in a relaxing mood and sometimes a deep sleep.

Easy to install and setup and very responsive with homekit!

Work great, looks nice. Application is easy. Impressed

Great ambient light, just not very bright – especially compared to Rythym.

Looks great! Definitely the best looking Nanoleaf panel lights so far!

We like the faux texture panel and while we would have liked a more RGB glow, it is good!

I bought these a gift for my best friend. This type of nanoleaf shape only displays warm lights no color.

Pretty nice to use. A bit expensive. I’m afraid of hacker breaking into it

Great product easy to install. Looks cool in the area I’m using it in. Brightens up a dark corner.

Got these for my husband and he loves them, they got to the beat also

These lights are great for adding natural lighting to a room, without being distracting. Great for a bedroom or a living room. Even though they don't display color, they have all the features that other Nanoleaf panels have.

The price is nuts! No precise network connect instructions. Definitely returning. Expected much more for the price. Nanoleaf- you can do better & you know it. Update your controller with better components, the price your asking warrants it.

Fun for the whole family. We have these displayed in our movie room.

Neat concept. Actual panels felt and looked cheap. Returned as it didn't live up to its price point. I would only buy if they were $50

I thouhht these were great. Just didnt fit the practical use i needed. Maybe in the fututre i can repurpose these for somthing else.

Panel are good and look nice but mine flick very bright sometimes, even with a low setting. Still using them.

I was hoping to class up my desk area and get better lighting with these things, but they failed on both counts. The material they are made of looks super cheap, the light falloff at the corners makes them look even cheaper, and they definitely dont get bright enough to replace the table lamp setting 2 feet further away.

I really want to give five stars because it's a gift from my wife, but it really disAppoints me. After using it for several months, the lights often stop and the app can't be used, so I have to turn it off and on again manually.

I've had some smart outlets before, but this was my first jump into smart lights. I use these exclusively with Apple HomeKit. Getting it connected to HomeKit was simple, just make sure your device is on a 2.4ghz network, otherwise it won't be able to find the controller. Once setup and added, I could easily add it to my basic home automation. I didn't need the Nanoleaf app to get it working with basic functionality. HomeKit will let you adjust the brightness and color, but that's about it. The Nanoleaf app is fine, but I find it to be oversimplified for the sake of minimalism, and unless I just skipped through the tool-tips accidentally, it doesn't do a good job of explaining what the icons mean. For example, when selecting a scene, there are icons of a bucket/pail, water drop, and music note. Now the music note is self explanatory, it will follow with your music and light up accordingly. I assume the pail means a solid color, since the gradient bar is just one color. The water-drop though I guess means it's a predefined scene, but I haven't a clue as to what the gradient bar is telling me, other than some colors will show up more frequently, though I couldn't guess the pattern from the names. The icon choices just seem odd to me, I'm not sure how a water drop relates to a dynamic scene, rain maybe? No idea. You can tell the app what the orientation of your setup is, so scenes play correctly, it doesn't tell you anywhere that you need to use two fingers to actually move it around. "Touch and swipe" gestures is the only mention of how to move the orientation around. It took me longer than I'd care to admit to figure out to use two fingers. To change a solid color you tap on water drop, which contradicts the purpose of the water-drop icon in the scene selection pane, you're then greeted with a full-color gradient wheel by default. Every. Single. Time. The Element doesn't support that, but the app will definitely let you try and pick one of the colors. The wheel has two parts, color selection and what appears to be an indicated hue/tone for your selected color. But that's not the case, the center section is for brightness, which is redundant because the brightness slider is maybe an inch above the wheel. There are also per-defined color swatches down below the wheel, which don't do anything with an Elements product, since it doesn't support colors, but there they are anyway. You can dig into the device settings further and setup touch controls (they mean on the lights themselves, not the app. Again, not very clear on directions there), where a motion can make adjustments to brightness, scene, etc. Scroll a bit further, and there's a setting group that says "Remote Control: Enable Thread" Uh what? You can't tap on Enable Thread, but the "i" tool-tip tells you "The Nanoleaf Remote cannot directly control Shapes/Elements when Thread Border Routing is enabled. Reverting to Remote Mode will turn off Thread." Great, that's cleared up now, thank you. :eyeroll: Ok so I've said enough about the app itself. Honestly, it's just bad, or at a minimum, they're trying to cram a ton of features into it, but don't really do a good job of explaining how everything works. Plus showing features that require some other setting to be toggled, or colors that aren't even supported, takes away from the enjoyment of the product itself. Honestly, this annoys me a lot more than it should. It's just a silly app. If you're running HomeKit, just stick to that if all you want is to use it as an additional light and aren't interested in scenes or music support. For the physical product itself. I quite enjoy it. I have mine set to turn on when I get home, but only between certain hours, my apartment is very dark at night, and annoyingly the only light switch controlled outlet is 20 feet away from the door, yay 1950s construction. Installation was easy, but I wish they included more than one extra tape pad. I created the design ahead of time on the floor, and was happy with it. Until I started putting it up, so I had to burn the only extra pad that's included. Full commit at that point. I'm not super thrilled with out it turned out, but it's fine. I'm sure command strips can be used as an alternative. My only gripe with the physical product, is I wish there was more variation in the wood grain. Each panel looks different, and that's great, but the grain on each panel only runs point to point, it would be nice if some of them ran flat to flat. That's just me though, not everyone would want that, which is probably why it isn't an option. Overall, I think they're a great smart light, they look great, offer ample light and can easily be connected to HomeKit. However, the app is in my opinion, not very good. Skip it all together if you only care about static lights and colors, you can do all of that from HomeKit.
