Customers are saying

Customers regard the Smart Light Starter Kit with Google Assistant very favorably, particularly praising its ease of use, Google Assistant integration, and surprisingly good sound quality for its size. Many also appreciate the affordable price and the simple setup process. While some users experienced occasional connectivity issues or limitations in range and compatibility with other smart home systems, these concerns were less frequently reported than the positive feedback.

    It's definitely the best option for the price but keep in mind this light bulb you won't be able to change the color, or set any schedules (ex. Slowly wake me up at 8:30) (ex. Hey google turn the lights off when I leave for work) but overall it's a great bundle for the price!

    Works like promised . I bought extra bulbs to work in other rooms but only works like it should in the room the transmitter is in. My WiFi may not be strong enough to reach other rooms.

    Awesome. Wanted something to control the bedroom lamp and to use as an alarm clock. Also I am a bit lazy so I like being able to control lights in the home.

    got this for my father for Father's Day, and he was thrilled. At first he didn't know what to do with it but after I put in the light bulb, and told him what to do the man has not stop laughing! He absolutely loves it and it's perfect for starting a small Smart House.

    Works well. Sometimes loses connection to light. Happened twice since my purchase. I wish we could reset the ok google to a phrase more comfortable to say or sound. You have to know how to say the command to work. Ex. Ok google dim lights. Ok google brighten lights

    I am an Alexa guy but bought this with a Onkyo receiver that did not work with Alexa. The receiver was too tall to fit on my shelf so I returned them both. No report on this product.

    This is my go-to gift for everyone!! It improves your life with the Google Mini and gives beginners a reason to use it by adding the smart light...which is also dim - able.

    We found the assistant to be a great means of bringing in radio stations that used to be statically or intermittent and making them clear. Also being able to go into a dark room and verbally turn on illuminatio

    It was ok. But I decided to unplug it and move it to a different room, and now it no longer recognizes my voice. I've tries resetting and following all possible troubleshooting and nothing. But before that it worked ok. So I guess just dont ever move it

    Had difficulty getting the lightbulb to sync with the google device - could not be detected by the google home unit but was detectable on the GE lightbulb app. Gave up after a bit but went to randomly try again after a few days and got it to work.

    My dad lives this and if he likes it I like it it’s also funny to hear him say “turn on fan”about five times before fan turns on
