Not worth the money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was not too impressed with these. The cord around the neck bounces a lot when running. Also, the sounds quality isn't that great. I ultimately returned these and got the plantronics instead - much better choice IMO.

Unreliable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The bulbs kept unpairing from the wireless base, even though the base, bulbs, and my wireless router were in the same room. I went through the process of pairing multiple times with the same result. Ultimately not worth the considerable hassle and expense, and after finding my dog left in total darkness when the bulbs unpaired yet again and failed to turn on as programmed, I gave up and returned the starter kit and all the bulbs.

Difficult Setup
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was not an easy setup. I am pretty tech savvy but I found the instructions vague and the connection was not automatic as I had hoped.

Not what I thought
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thought that it would do all lights but have to replace all not just 1. Would have gone a different way.

It is great but a little glitchy.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Convenience is what this thing is. Lock it with your IFTTT account and you can automate when it turns on or off. I matched these lights with my Harmony Hub and the tasker app on android. I just need to say my key words and the lights turn on for me. I just have one glitchy bulb at the moment-- turns on at random times. I don't know how to fix that. I'm just living with it for the moment-- maybe not worth my time to return and replace. Sucky but works for the most part. The hub that comes with this is not wireless, so be prepared to add a little clutter around your router.

Too dim
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These bulbs are yellow compared to my LED bright white lights. There’s not enough light and the room is too yellow and dim with these. I’m returning them.

Excellent quality, easy setup
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the two-bulb-and-bridge starter kit to use with my Amazon Echo. Downloading the Phillips app and getting the bulbs working with the app was a snap. Integrating them with the Echo was an easy second step. Compared to other wireless devices, the Phillips package, though pricey, is worth it because of the lack of hassle. I was impressed enough to immediately purchase two more bulbs and another Echo -- a Dot -- to spread the good stuff around the house. I'm looking forward to adding the Phillips Hue strip lights under my kitchen cabinets next.

Perfect for a smart home and HomeKit compatible
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this kit to add to my entry level smart home setup. I have an Ecobee3, Chamberlain Garage, and several WEMO switches, but the Philips set is the best ive seen for controlling lights in a home. I have several bulbs and recently received a Philips Flushmount Ceiling light and the system just works. Setup was easy, customization is even easier and its fun to play with. There is a bit of a learning curve when setting it up, but once you figure it out, you will see the benefits of this system. I highly recommend this product
