Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nice design but flawed.

These lamps have been in my kitchen for 4 years now. They are connected to my Wink Hub 2.0 and we have previously used it with my first generation Wink Hub. I originally bought these lights from Home Depot for about $25-$50 each, but I'm happy to see that this bundle is significantly more economical. I am giving these lamps 3 stars because one of them recently broke. Not only did it lose connection to the hub, but it also failed to respond to my light switch immediately, flickered, or slowed down from a very weak point. I tried twice successfully to reset it, but the third time it stopped resetting and continued working with errors. I have the same 4" size lights and am currently having trouble connecting them to the hub after plugging them in. new soft dimmer for them. The problem I have is simply the hub not recognizing two displays at the same time to add them to the controls so i have to reset both ads, remove one ad and set the other in the app, reset the first ad and reinstall it, in the attachment this can be tricky as the app doesn't always reacts when a new device is plugged in. I really like that I can change the color temperature with my phone. For some reason the big stores don't sell these bulbs anymore, but the bulbs let you choose from 4 temperatures with a physical switch, before you install them I love that you can swap mine out anytime without removing it as I use it for different tasks or moods in the use different temperatures in the kitchen. Save in case I have a problem again. In general, my issues are not related to the price or the physical quality of the bulbs, but rather to the faulty quality of the wink hub connection, as well as my experience with a bulb failing.
