Just installed one of these Amazon Basics smart recessed downlights in my bathroom and I’m honestly impressed for the price. Setup was quick and simple, and it connected to my smart app without any real issues.

Once installed, it worked right away and gives off a clean, even light that’s perfect for a small bathroom space. Controls respond fast, and it’s nice being able to adjust brightness without needing a physical switch upgrade.

For something this cheap and easy to install, it feels like a solid upgrade over a standard recessed bulb.

Just what I needed

I started with a more expensive product but I the app wasn't great and ultimately needed Alexa to do what I wanted. So returned for this. I have 2 of these in a room that doubles as my home office and workout room. I wanted different lighting for each scenario and the ability to have each light with different brightness setting. The Alexa app totally allows for that and I can use the app or the TV with a Fire Stick. I just say "workout lighting" into my Fire Stick remote and my lights are ready. Aesthetically, these are not as nice as a more premium brand, but they are on the ceiling and good enough. For the price and functionality, you can't go wrong. No flickering, easy to install and good enough color schemes

3 of the 4 seem to work great. The fourth is defective and the support is practically non-existent. The company just connects to a bunch of Chinese phone numbers, not great considering it is an Amazon Basics product.

★★★★☆ Solid budget smart lights, but slightly glitchy and colors are just okay
Overall, these Amazon Basics smart lights are a decent deal for the price, but they have a few quirks you should know about before buying.
First, they can be a little glitchy with the Amazon ecosystem. The funny thing is, they do always work when you give a command—the lights will switch on or off exactly like you asked—but sometimes Alexa or the app gets confused and claims the device isn't responding. It's mildly annoying to get an error message when the light clearly just turned on, but at least the lights themselves are doing their job.
Second, the color quality isn't super great. If you're looking for incredibly vibrant, rich, or highly accurate colors, you might be a bit disappointed. They work fine for basic ambient lighting, but they definitely lack that premium color pop you might get from more expensive brands.
For a budget setup, they are still a solid 4-star buy. Just keep your expectations realistic when it comes to the smart home integration feedback and the color spectrum.

Won’t connect

I have several smart lights and smart devices throughout my home. I bought this pack of 4 Amazon Basics lights for my wife’s office.
1st try 1 of them was working, 2 said “unresponsive” and the 4th light never showed up. All of them came on with the power switch. During the process of trying to get the two unresponsive lights to work, the one working light went unresponsive. After about 6 times of deleting the devices and performing the factory reset and trying to add them, I am about ready to give up. I’m going to have a drink, calm down and try one more time, tomorrow. If they don’t connect tomorrow they are going to be returned.
All of my outdoor cameras and outdoor lights are smart and connected to Alexa, as are several indoor lights and outlets. Also my 3 air conditioners (Arizona). These 4 lights should have been a walk in the park. I will probably return them and buy a different brand.
Update: all 4 said ‘successfully added and ready to use”. All 4 showed “unresponsive”. Alexa also said devices were not responding. I give up.
