Review on Philips Hue Equivalent Dimmable Assistant by Patricia Reed

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I love these lamps

Now I have 9 white Hue bulbs. Colored ones aren't worth the extra cost to me. I have them in all the lamps in my house for a reason. NO ONE TURNS THE LIGHTS OFF IN MY HOUSE! So now I can take care of them whether they are home or not and knowing everyone is in bed or at school I turn everything off so they don't stay on all day. I have two remotes, one for my bedroom and one for the laundry room. The pull chain in the laundry room keeps breaking, I've changed this outlet 3 times in 3 years. I finished. I bought another tinting lamp and remote control and used a magnet to attach the remote control to the side of the washing machine. and now I don't have to worry about there being no light. In both our room and the teenage bedroom, the lights come on slowly in the morning to help wake up, and when the Alexa timer in the kitchen chimes, which I can't hear from the back of the house, all shades of light flash a few times . NO burnt cookies because I had to run to the kids room to tell them something. My lights are set up with IFTTT and when I get home from work at night my lights on the patio and in front of the house come on so I go inside. and can see where I'm going. I like these lights very much. Oh, when I'm in bed at night I say "Goodnight Google" to my Google Home and it turns EVERYTHING off so I don't have to run and check. I go to school so I turn on the light in his bedroom using Google Assistant to turn on his light and then turn on Alexa in the bathroom for music. We run both Google and Alxea because if I'm in the living room and say something to Alexa, the kitchen or bathroom will turn on. So we messed it up :)

Pros
  • Hue Bridge required (sold separately) to fully utilize Hue, these lamps fit standard sized table lamps.
Cons
  • Big and chunky
