We have several of their items. I’d recommend all of the ones I’ve tried. Strip below the couch for mood lighting. Bulbs all over (a few we’ve had for about a decade and still going strong). Some bar lights behind the tv lighting. And my partner uses one of the stand alone spotlight ones (I don’t remember the name). I’d rebuy all of the stuff we’ve gotten from them. Our apartment has terrible electrical and we’ve had almost all our bulbs blow that came with it. After being fed up with having to have maintenance visit so often because the ceilings are higher than we can reach, we just use the hue.
I just wish the app was better. They could simplify it a lot. In particular I find it’s kind of a pain to set scenes.
My apartment “upgraded” us to digital locks and now we have to use an app to unlock our door. I was so pissed the entire time they were installing them. I don’t like the idea that the locks could run out of battery and keep us out, and I feel much more insecure in my apt. It also feels like our comings and goings can be spied on now. I hate this future.
