Our kitchen island lights have been broken for a while and I’ve been looking to replace them for ages. An electrician put the old ones in so I was a little wary.And reading some of the reviews, I was worried about the stickiness.But I need not worry.Easy to install then myself. We went for the 2x5m so I string of lights could go down each side of the island. The 3M stick tape was superb. I cut off what wasn’t needed.Really pleased with the result. They are quite bright during the day but really stand out at night. And then strobe to music, which the kids loved. Next party they will be on and bouncing away.Very effective. Cheap. Easy to install. Just buy them for your project.

Great lights, very easy to install and look great. Large variety of colours available. The 2 in 1 switch worked great as I could control both strips at once

Got this for my son's bedroom, and he loves it. The moving light effects set it apart from standard led strips, and the bright white leds mean you can light the room up really well.Integration with Alexa is ok - you can't access the effects directly though, you have to set up shortcuts in the app, which are then visible in Alexa.I've installed it into aluminium channeling, which is a faff to fit to the walls (especially if you're doing it at the top of the ceiling) but looks _so_ much better than just sticking the tape to the wall, and also means you can take it all down to decorate.

I've had 4 sets of LEDs now from 3 different companies and every single one of them broke in a few months.I now wanted to buy some from a more reputable brand because putting up new LEDs every few months is a lot of effort, and terrible for the environment.I have had a TP-link extender for 6 years now and it's still working, which gives me an idea for the quality of their products.Putting up the LEDs was simple like any others. The colour diffusion is great and well balanced, and there are no dead LED spots.The app UI is well made and easy to navigate, and setup was as simple as 3,2,1. Connectivity is fast, and works with WiFi and Bluetooth.It doesn't come with a remote control however and does require a phone or tablet. However, I do not find this a problem as I always found remotes to be dodgy and I always end up losing them.The LEDs connect to my Amazon Alexa which works seamlessly, and I use it on a daily basis.The price may seem a little high for some, but these are from a reputable brand and are more likely to last longer than other brands. Saving you time & money in the long run.

I waited and waited to buy some smart lighting for the house because it felt like a bit of a minefield. In reality, these are SUPER simple to set up. Just download the corresponding app, connect the lights and follow the instructions (a series of connecting to Wifi and updating).I wanted lights that would integrate with my existing Google Home set-up and these are completely supported. Any of my Google smart speakers can change the light settings and the Home app itself has full control (once you login once with your Tapo credentials).Plenty bright enough and can be basically any colour and brightness you choose. I will definitely be buying more for a similar feel but in the kitchen and elsewhere. I was also conscious that I didn't want to see the individual LED's on the wall - as you can see from the images it gives off a nice diffused glow.I only scored 4* for the adhesion as although it is super sticky, some parts of the strip is less so, but it's not gone anywhere as the rest of the strip is holding on! It's also a little tricky to create a bend without feeling like you may damage the strip - all good so far (I have two bends on the strip that is underneath the desk) but it has left a "rise" in the cable.

It's been close to a year since I have installed these on kitchen countertops, technology wise absolutely no complaints and highly satisfied with the features.But TP-Link should have used some better quality materials in the design. The adaptor connector (pic attached) they could have gone with something else like USB-C which may holds the strip tight.Also, the adhesive is not strong, strip is coming off the counter top.
