Good quality and even better price!
I have a lot lights around the house, I have been trying to replace them with smart ones. Before I got these, I only bought philips hues. I started to feel the sting in the wallet after the 10th one. These were only half the price, so I decided to give them a try. The set-up was the quick and routine, I linked them to amazon echo and google home, they worked like a charm. Suggest only follow half the instruction (download gosund app, set up a free account, and connect the bulbs one by one). The instruction about how to link to alexa is not good, and there is no instruction for linking to google home. Since I have set up so many smart things around the house, I know the drill. Just search and add the skill 'gosund', and type in your free account info, alexa and google home will connect and add the bulbs automatically.

Ceiling Fan Warning!
Works with Alexa has described. Now I can say "Goodnight" or "Turn off Bedroom Lights" and my ceiling fan bedroom lights all turn off at once.PLEASE NOTE: If you are installing all 4 bulbs on a ceiling fan, be sure to pair one bulb at a time. If you put them all in at once, they won't pair correctly. By the time you are done you should have 4 different bulbs paired in the Gosung app. This app is required to pair the bulbs.Once you pair the bulbs with the Gosung app, Alexa will recognize the bulbs and you can now set them up to work by voice command.Also, these will NOT work on 5G internet. Check with your ISP to make sure your internet has 2.4GHZ on your WIFI. Most modern ISP have dual 2.4 and 5G. I had no idea how to verify this at first.One way to check is go to your WIFI settings on your phone and search for your home's WIFI name. You probably have two networks listed. One might be named something like HOMEINTERNET AND HOMEINTERNET_5G. The one without the 5G next to it is probably your 2.4GH. That's what you need to be connected to for the lights to work.Also be sure to double check your WIFI password when pairing. I mistakenly left off a letter when I copied it, and the app does not tell you what is wrong. It just keeps saying it couldn't pair, but doesn't tell you why.Once I got through the slightly tedious setup of pairing each bulb individually for my fan, they work like a charm! I love being able to turn my lights off by voice now. Great buy!

These bulbs only work on 2.4GH they will not work on 5G
I absolutely love these smart bulbs 💡 I order a set of 4 for my ceiling fan. I was slow at figuring out how to connect them to Wi-Fi and my google home, I looked up the how to videos on YouTube and all the videos I seen it shows the person only connecting to one bulb 💡 so that got me to thinking 💭 🤔 maybe they reason I’m have problems getting mine connected because I’m trying to connect all 4 bulbs 💡 at one time and you can’t do that 🤦🏻♀️ So I screwed in one bulb 💡 in the ceiling fan and it connected really quick to both my Wi-Fi and google home. But I also found out the other issue was the bulbs 💡 only work on 2.4G not 5G I have both speeds but the whole time I only thought I had 5G until I call xfinity and found out I have both 2.4GH and 5G so xfinity helped me setup my 2.4GH so then my bulbs 💡 connected with no issues but I still had to connect one bulb 💡 at a time until I had all 4 bulbs 💡 connected to my 2.4GH Wi-Fi and google home and now when I tell google to turn in/off the lights 💡 or to dim the lights 💡 WALLAH!! We now have lights and they work like a charm with my google home. I’m fixing to order another set of theses bulbs 💡 for my master bedroom ceiling fan! I highly recommend these bulbs 💡

Very good replacement for Wink devices
I was interested in these because they would work with Alexa. I was surprised however, to discover that the manufacturer had an app that needed to be downloaded to get the bulbs connected, then the app is connected to Alexa. None of this was noted on the sales page, only that the bulbs would work with Alexa (and Google). However, I decided to delete the app to try and connect directly to Alexa -- but they never stopped working. So this means I am no longer connected to what is essentially an unknown company, only to Amazon (who knows plenty about me already...). It all worked out great and the bulbs can be controlled verbally or through the Alexa app.

Easy, bright, Alexa
These lights are much better than the old technology I was using. You just turn the light on and off 3 times to put it into pairing mode, use the app to pair the light, and Alexa picks up on the new device automatically. I set several routines in Alexa that turns off the lights when certain things happen like no motion for 3 hours in our main living area (saves energy if we forgot to turn lights off). From bed, I tell my Dot to turn the light out when I'm ready to sleep, no getting up or straining to reach the bedside lamp. I have the lights coordinated with our Ring alarm so that two lights go on 50% power when we set the "away" alarm, which makes it look like someone is still home. Very good brightness, too. I can easily read by these lights and adjusting the brightness is really easy from my iphone and ipad.

Good bulbs. Getting phone on 2.4 gHz Wi-Fi can be tricky
I like these bulbs a lot. They are definitely bright enough. I like that I can schedule them to go on and off with my phone. I don't have Alexa so I can't comment on that. There is a trick to setting them up if your WiFi is combined 2.4 and 5 gHz. I read various websites about forcing my phone onto the 2.4 bandwidth. That didn't work. What I had to do was walk out of my apartment after I got the light blinking to sync and keep an eye on my settings-->wifi --> *my network* until it dropped from 5 to 2.4. I was able to walk about 50 ft down the hall and around the corner before it switched over. It was annoying to have to do that for all four bulbs and sometimes the bulb would give up on syncing before I could get switched to 2.4. Once I figured it out it took me about a half hour to do all four bulbs. I spent a couple hours before that trying to find a work around.

Automatically disconnects
It was a relatively set up but the bulbs automatically disconnects from google hump and has to be manually used and then reinstalled. It is quickly becoming just a set of overpriced lightbulbs

Super easy setup
I like this bulb, the setup was really easy. The brightness is great! The value for these light bulbs are also fantastic, great quality. I set these lights in my celling light and they said they were 40 watts but these work fine in them, I had no issues so far.

They work....sometimes
They work but have intermittent issues. Seems that they have a weak signal that drops....
