I really like my Hue lights, I put this 6’ light strip on the backside of console and it syncs with my light strip on the back of my TV. I purchased this strip as an Amazon Certified Refurbished which made the cost a lot more affordable and it arrived almost like new. Overall a great buy.

Style: Base (6ft)Color: Gradient ColorVerified Purchase
As someone who values both ambiance and convenience in lighting, I recently incorporated Philips Hue lights into my home, and the experience has been nothing short of illuminating. From the ease of setup to the vibrant color options, Philips Hue has transformed the way I perceive and interact with lighting in my living space.

Seamless Setup:
Setting up the Philips Hue lights was a breeze. The straightforward installation process, aided by the intuitive app, ensured that even a novice like me could sync the lights to my preferences within minutes. The user-friendly interface made connecting the lights to my smart home ecosystem a smooth experience.

Customizable Ambiance:
The real magic of Philips Hue lights lies in their versatility. The range of customizable colors and shades allows me to curate the perfect ambiance for any occasion. From warm, cozy tones for a relaxing evening to vibrant, energetic hues for a lively get-together, the possibilities are virtually endless. The ability to adjust the brightness level adds an extra layer of control, allowing me to create the ideal atmosphere for any moment.

Smart Home Integration:
The compatibility of Philips Hue with popular smart home platforms has seamlessly integrated these lights into my connected home ecosystem. Whether using voice commands with my virtual assistant or scheduling lighting scenes through the app, the smart home integration enhances the overall convenience and accessibility of the lighting system.

Dynamic Scenes and Effects:
The pre-programmed scenes and dynamic lighting effects offered by Philips Hue add an extra dimension to the lighting experience. From mimicking a sunrise to syncing with my favorite music, these features elevate the ambiance, turning everyday moments into immersive experiences.

Reliable Performance:
Beyond their aesthetic appeal, Philips Hue lights exhibit reliable performance. The bulbs consistently respond promptly to commands, and the system has demonstrated stability over extended periods of use. This reliability contributes to a hassle-free lighting experience, allowing me to enjoy the ambiance without disruptions.

Energy Efficiency:
In addition to their aesthetic and functional qualities, Philips Hue lights are energy-efficient. The LED technology not only provides vibrant illumination but does so while minimizing energy consumption. This commitment to sustainability aligns with modern eco-conscious values.

In conclusion, Philips Hue lights have exceeded my expectations in terms of ease of use, customization options, and overall performance. The transformative impact they've had on the ambiance of my home has made them an indispensable part of my smart home setup.

Style: Extension (3ft)Color: Single ColorVerified Purchase
The light strip is an amazing and bright addition to my room, wonderful colors and ambience, but the problem I faced was the connections to the extension doesn't have a firm grip to attach and hold, you'll find yourself needing to tape it or glue it together. Another problem is since I had the 6' base for two years the adhesive does not last long. After a couple of months it lost its stickiness, so I believe the 3' extensions will soon loose it too, it's best to take off the old tape and apply stronger adhesive double sided tape.

The pros:
I bought the gradient strip to put on the backside of my desk to light up the wall behind my Samsung Neo G9. It looked absolutely amazing and really took my gaming/work setup to the next level. But the fun didn’t last long.

Flipping breaker in our house:
Unfortunately after I bought this light strip, the breaker in our townhouse mysteriously started tripping every other day. We couldn’t figure out what the problem was. An electrician that we called asked us if we had any LED lights in the house. Surprised, we said yeah. He told us to unplug them. I unplugged this light strip and suddenly our breakers stopped flipping. Coincident? Unlikely.

Prob almost burned our house down:
A few weeks later I plugged the light strip back in for a day and within 30 minutes of me doing so the breaker flipped THREE TIMES in a span of like 8 minutes.

Got a used product apparently:
I saw in quite a few other reviews that people said they received used units despite them being advertised as new. Funny enough, when I opened mine up, the adhesive was completely detached from the strip in one spot towards the end of the strip. I didn’t give it much thought until now but why would my “brand new” light strip be in that condition?

Hue customer service:
By the time I realized this light strip was causing major electrical problems in our brand new townhouse I was outside the return window and had to go through Hues customer service. To their credit they did let me send the product back. They were supposed to send me another one but it was backordered for literally months but weirdly was in stock on Amazon? I guess because they’re secretly selling used units on here that others have returned for defects. Eventually Hue offered me a full refund when it became apparent that it wasn’t going to be back in stock any time soon. Whole process took like 2 months due to the back ordering issue. If I had just asked for money back right away it all prob would’ve been sorted in like 2 weeks.

Summary:
Was defective. Caused electrical issues in my house. Hue refunded me. Don’t waste your money.

Update 2/24/23:
I received one of these light strips as a gift (this one came directly from the Hue website), plugged it in, and after literally THREE days of being plugged in, the entire strip stopped working. Only the very end near the plug lights up. I'm literally flabbergasted by how poor the quality of Hue products are. It's no wonder they don't let customers leave reviews. I actually cannot believe they get away with selling products of this terrible quality for this much money. STAY AWAY. If you're going to risk it with these light strips just try Govee. At least they're half the price so if it breaks you wont get burned as bad.

Reviewed in Canada on July 29, 2024
Style: Base (6ft)Color: Single ColorVerified Purchase
Good lights. I installed under my kitchen cabinets and they significantly improve ambiance as well as visibility when meal prepping. The glue they came with is useless, and you will need to order proper mounting tape (I used gorilla mounting tape - which worked). They are dimmable with smart home tech, which is great. However, they do disconnect from smart home tech sometimes and need to be un-installed and then reinstalled, which is super annoying when it happens. If there is a power surge, power outage, or internet disruption they will need to be reinstalled.

Definitivo. El precio es mayor a muchas marcas, pero aquí recibes una calidad de producto que pocos van a ofrecer. He usado en varios proyectos diferentes tiras y definitivo estas son las mejores.
La calidad del diodo da una luz muy “pareja” no crea manchas de luz.
Consejo: Si agregan una canaleta con acrílicos dará un efecto mas difuso y agradable a la luz.

La funcionalidad y la iluminación es genial, lo instalé al rededor de la cabecera y quedo muy bien. El adhesivo no es muy bueno, al retirar la cinta blanca para colocarla, se vino con todo y adhesivo, afortunadamente lo pude volver a pegar. Y poner extremo cuidado de quitar la cinta blanca.
La integración en el sistema Hue fue fácil
