    I had several problems with this product. It fell off my tv twice and the hue bridge broke and ultimately had to be returned.

    Expensive and needs not only an app but other times to even work, which I knew but the whole set up is not very pleasing or easy to get working

    This product does not specify that you have to buy another part that’s sold separately for it to work, the light works when plugged in but to change the color you need to purchase a hue bridge to be able to connect to your WiFi router to be able to control the lights and change the color, without the hue bridge this is basically a lamp with one light color yellow.

    I had to buy this because my prior one stopped working after 2.5 years. I would expect them to be better quality and last longer.

    This item required a hub just to use the color ways. While it does state so on the package it’s not very visible.

    Better version of the Bloom

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Title of the review is pretty much all there is to say. Blooms were good for ambient lighting, but had a limited color spectrum and were annoyingly white with a white cord. This is much brighter, has better color output, offers more mounting possibilities, and is a easier to hid because it's black. The expansion option to add 3 of these per power supply is a great touch as well. For the extra $10, I see very little reason to buy a Bloom over a Play. I do wish the two included mounting plates were combined into a single that used some sort of ball bearing for rotation, but other than that I have zero complaints.

    Love the Hue Play light bar!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I already have multiple Hue color/white ambience bulbs and light strips scattered around my apartment, and was looking for a solution to put behind my computer monitor to act as a bias light. As with all of my other Hue products, this does not disappoint! The light bar definitely gets bright enough when I need it to, and I can of course change color temperature depending on what I'm working on. Easy to mount with the included hardware. Love it!

    Nice addition to my Hue environment

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased this to go behind my computer monitor. I really do like it. It syncs well with the Hue App on the computer. I also bought some for behind my TV, but just be aware, you will not be able to sync the lights with your TV unless you go through a computer. I still like them though.
