Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I recently decided to see what the whole commotion was in regards to an "Automated Home." Several Amazon Dots and various smart accessories later, my home is tricked out and I must say, it's awesome. This is one of the rare purchases and features that makes me stop and say "Damn, the future is now". Out of all the smart accessories I purchased, the Hue is my favorite. It took all of 3 minutes to setup and has been working like a charm. I initially purchased the TP Link version of smart lighting, but they couldn't stay on my network for the life of them. One quick exchange later, and the Hue was here and set up. It's quick, responsive, pairs with Alexa in no time at all, and the best thing yet; it's almost endlessly upgradable (for the normal sized home, that is.) if you have been throwing the idea of automating your home around, and have a couple houndred dollars lying around (I automated pretty much everything for around $400 which includes the Amazon Dots for a few different rooms), pull the trigger. You won't regret it. Just make sure your Network has full coverage of your home to prevent frustration. Also, to anyone disappoint the hub is not WIFI based there is a reason for that. Reliability. This hub transmits the signal to all of your Hue devices. Nothing would frustrate people more than a dodgy wireless signal relaying their request to their other devices. A hardwired connection ensures every relay is transmitted correctly and appropriately. Hard wired connections may be "ugly" but they ensure quality transfer rates!
