Love them, turn the house into a place you want to be.

I love these Philips Hues lights, easy to install and add a lot of good entertainment and atmosphere to your home. So much so that we replaced every light in the house with Philip Hughes 70+ and they all worked seamlessly with our Wi-Fi system. My only downside is the price. Also, you will really like them and all the apps built around them for you.

Pros
  • Good value for money
Cons
  • Good overall but...

The reviews are correct - the installation/mounting system is terrible

The mounting system makes no sense. On most modifications, one of two types of metal brackets is standardized - in fact, one of these two looks like the one shown in the picture. However, what was delivered was as described in many disappointed reviews (it was an order today 7/19/21). An image that doesn't significantly match the product is truly unethical. I've tried installing this five times but I think I'll go back to the old brand I used which went straight in.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • There are cons

Should QA not have passed

The mounting system on these lights is unforgivable. Once they are installed in a jar, it will be very frustrating for you to try to remove them without taking out the entire jar. The metal clips have a stranglehold on the inside of the can. Hue's website says they MAY have redesigned the metal clips, but I'm not willing to pay another $55 for the chance they've actually tested their product. Time. Your support line was useless too. Update: Ordered from the Hue website and the mount hasn't…

Pros
  • Builds confidence
Cons
  • Appearance

The ideal retrofit light, also suitable for damp rooms!

As a tint addict, I wanted color in a soul where there was no light. After weighing all the options I settled on 2 4 inch ceiling lights. It took about 6 hours to connect the power, cut holes and install the enclosures. Because the light installation lasts about a minute. Then it's Hue as usual! It's great - a shower of cyclic colors! I was glad they rated for wet areas. Of course, like all Hue products, they're more expensive than they should be. But I can't knock the quality of the iron or…

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • No insurance
