    This was in not “excellent condition “ as described in the open box items. It looks VERY used and is missing the four screws needed to mount the bars. Very deceitful advertising, I will be returning.

    I returned the hue lights bar for the gradient light strip instead. I think the hue bar has its place, but the light just works better.

    I was super excited after buying but product for the holidays and its extremely misleading. 1) If you don't own anything Hue Philips and don't already have a Hue Bridge you can even turn the stupid things off without unplugging it. 2) In order to connect it to you TV you need to spend an additional $300 for yet another Hub type device! Yeah, This is a load of crap and I'll be returning this for sure!

    Good idea not as useful as one would think they didn’t mention the additional $50 bridge needed to make this work. Could be great if they added some more features such as auto on/ off on night lights . Way to expensive don’t recommend at all . Also if you want this to interact with Movies you need to get an HDMI bridge $250.00 and for that reason I’m out !! Product retuned

    These lights are okay but they are a little awkward to place in a room. The cords are hard to hide. I noticed that they click after you turn them off. Other than that they work great.

    Super lame, cheap construction. Needs a $250 add on to get full potential. You can buy the same quality stuff at the 5 and dime lol. It would be ok for $20-30. But $170 is stupid. A $20 light strip behind the tv is about as good. Don’t wast the money.

    Setup went okay. But then when we went to use it found that music or movie or whatever needs to go through a computer running their program and weren't set up for that

    My wife and I absolutely love the Phillips Hue Play light bars. I attached one on each side of our 65” TV (via the 3M sticky squares) and it looks great!! We use it with the hue camera app (along with two blooms) when watching movies or when I play video games....so immersive!! Also, it’s been over 6 weeks and so far, no problems whatsoever. I’ll update this entry should that assessment change, but so far, so good. We’re thrilled!!
