My husband was adament about not wanting a wifi connected device. I on the other hand like adding convenience to my lige and this does just that. I wanted the light function for our bedroom so i could turn it on and off without getting up. Works great for that. Loved it so much we ended up buying more minis for the whole house to be connected. Great product for the price. I cant speak to the more expensive versions but this meets our needs well!!

Beware

i cant get the bulb to stay connected. I've been in contact with Google support numerous times. I'm very disappointed in this product. I've spent many hours resetting the bulb. Google recommends Philips Hue, so I'm not sure why they would sell a GE bulb with the kit. Google wont stand behind the bulb because I bought it through a 3rd party. Google will not support your Google items unless they have been purchased through Google. Beware

Be cautious

Misleading. Google home is awesome the light even pairs with it however two or more bulbs will not. You need a smart bridge for that and I'm new to smart house stuff. My advice buy the google home mini alone and buy a Phillips hue starter kit. The smart bridge by ge is sold out right now and is expensive vs the hue setup.

Not ready for prime time

Simply put, Google Home is unreliable. There is nothing more frustrating than not being able to turn on/off your lights. This tech was simply not ready for mass use or Google botched it. I have more of these devices than I can count, though Wal-Mart is apparently limiting me to one review per type of item. Otherwise, I'd write one review talking about how much I hate Google Home for each device I've bought.

Good deal

Ita a great value for what you get. I do notice the mini doesn't understand alot of useful functions though (just continues to tell me the team is working on that) and I thought the light would be multicolored but it's just dimmable. For 29$ for both items it is still a good deal.

purchased this for my little brother for Christmas and it was by far his favorite gift. he is 12. he uses in his room while playing fornite on his Xbox. he loved the fact that it came with a light that he can turn on and off by talking to it. set up was easy.i do also have an Amazon Alexa and Alexa can hear my taking from the other room, with the Google home mini you do have to be in the room for it to hear you but other than that this is a great product.

Love this!

This is a great smart home system. I love how I can wake up and speak to turn my lights on or off. It is so useful! It saves me time. If you think you might not need this, give it a try! It has made my life so much easier. Its simple to use and affordable.

Not So Smart 'Smart Light'

The lightbulb works great with Google Mini. However there is not an option to schedule the light to turn off and on at a specific time which was my primary reason for purchasing the Smart Lightbulb. You are able to operate the light remotely from the Google Home App which is a good work around. Ideally I would like to be able to present the time so I don't have to manually turn the light on or off using the app.

The Google Home Mini pkg with GE C life smart bulb

Everything!! As the google home and the GE C life smart bulb is very easy to sync with google mini. I would definitely say to buy the google mini that is pkg with the google home. Cheaper and easier to set up. Don't hesitate as the google home mini is at a great price.
