    We have had Hue in our house with integrated with Google Home for several years. I got this for my mom's small apartment and even she can use it with her Google Home. Good stuff if you are ready to automate your home.

    Alexa voice commands works pretty well after I figured out how to group the lights into the Alexa app on my phone. That was the only barrier. If you already have the Philip's Hue app and installed the lights correctly there, your settings should already be mapped to Alexa. Overall, I'm satisfied.

    I purchased this primarily to get the hub for Hue outdoor lights purchased separately. My only complaint is that the range doesn’t seem to be as far as some other competing products on the market. I had to move the hub closet to the lights so that I didn’t have issues with lights not responding. I have other lights with other hone hubs that are further away that didn’t have the same issues.

    Great product to buy the Philips Hue starter kit. Once you purchase this kit you get the main component the bridge and two bulbs. Now though you can add up to 50 more bulbs to do your whole house. Really convenient and a nice product to have. I personally definitely recommend that you purchase this kit you will not be disappointed

    The lights and hub work really well, but they are not perfect. I connected these to my Amazon Alexa and there was one day it didn't work and the lights wouldn't respond. I reset the hub and the lights worked fine after. The app with it works great. Sometimes however, the light won't change to the color that I want when I try to speak it through Amazon Alexa. I would recommend these if you are looking for smart lights. The extra bulbs are only 15 dollars as opposed to LIFX color changing ones.

    My Phillips Hue are working PERFECT!!! Great investment, zero problems to install, they connected to my Wink Hub. I also have the color HUE bulbs, all my switches are ON, I control my lights with ECHO DOT, HUE app and they are great. If you are worried about the electricity bill, DON'T BE, it won't go up. Great and excellent quality product.

    Very easy set up, and the updates are just as fast. However, it does require you to plug the "bridge" into your router via a provided ethernet cable to allow any bulb in your home to use the same bridge. You can voice control this product with your Google Home or Amazon Echo, or control it via the Hue App anywhere in the world.

    I am dragging my wife into automating our house. Ever since I got the Amazon Echo, we have been adding WEMO devices and now light bulbs. Having the ability to dim bulbs from your phone is so cool and lazy! I love it. This hub is easy to install and the bulbs program easy also.

    I've tied this in with my Amazon Echo Dot and it works great! Very easy to set up, within the Hue app and the Echo app. Philips has a good history of reliability and I trust their products. Can't wait to add more bulbs to other fixtures. I just started out with two of the white bulbs, but, definitely, plan on adding more in my home.

    I bought this before the 4 bulb starter kit existed. I wish I had waited a bit more but, I had bought an extra bulb either way so, not too bad. Loge being able to control lights off my phone or with my voice. Also love the sense of security I feel knowing that the light turns on when I get home and open the garage.

    We have one in our kitchen and when we go out we can turn it on for Sheba (our dog) if it gets dark before we are home. Also have in other rooms and works great! Last time my daughter visited and seen how things worked she took the extra bulbs and plugs I had and went and brought a Ecco to use at her home.

    It's 2 bulbs and a hub. The bulbs are white only, and work very well. Set-up is simple as is getting it in sync with an Echo.

    While searching for additional light bulbs to further automate my house, I came across this little nugget package. Very easy to set up. Not only have I been able to set up the bulbs that came in the package, the Smart Hub offers me the opportunity to add other items to increase the security of my home.
