> 24 hourThis is soothing in a dark room. It has an app that allows you to choose from several different color patterns. I am enjoying falling asleep with cozy light patterns. My only dislike is that it is a bit thin. If this were in a child’s room, I would not want them to have access to the globe. The globe is plastic, but if it can be broken my kid was able to do it.

> 24 hourLooking for a soft glow colorful lamp? We use this lamp in our bedroom to provide a nice soft lightning in the evening. I particularly enjoy the ability to change the colors of the lamp with my phone or a voice assistant command. Additionally, the lamp has a high quality feel and look to it. Recommended Pros: - Colors: The colors produced by the lamp are exceptional. The color diffuses beautifully across the globe. - Control: The lamp can be controlled by Alexa if desired. - On/Off: There is even a physical on/off switch if you want to control the lamp manually. FYI: - Brightness: This is not a reading lamp. It doesnt provide enough light to read a book.

> 24 hourThis light is a nice size and has a nice color when you plug it in. Their is a 6 page manual with lots of useless information about where it is made and how great it is. But the instructions for pairing consist of less than two sentences. You must download an app and then select to pair in one of three modes. I spent an hour trying to get it to pair with bluetooth or wifi without success. The first problem was that to get it into pairing mode you must press the power button three times. But this button does not work. So to get it into pairing mode I had to plug and unplug it multiple times. When in pairing mode, I would select it, enter the wifi password, it would think for a couple minutes and then either say timeout or that it could not pair. There were three pairing modes, ble, wifi and ble+wifi. I tried all three but none worked. The bluetooth pairing mode still required the wifi password. Probably a nice light if it works, but for me it is basically a light with a nice white to orange transition that is on when plugged in and off when you unplug it. Not what I wanted.

> 24 hourI was hoping for something that would simulate like the morning sun awake up, but I found out it isnt really designed for that. The color selections are nice and they really can make a room mood cozy. It just didnt seem like it fulfilled all their claims.

> 24 hourThe lamp feels like frosted glass and looks nice turned on or off. Nice even glow. Decent cable. I downloaded the app, but after an hour finally gave up trying to connect it. I have several other connected devices around the house, so I’m not new to the technology. I’m sure I would have really liked this if it’d connect. It shouldn’t be that difficult.

> 24 hourThis is a very cool gift for a child or teen’s bedroom. This unusual panda lamp adds atmosphere and color as a nightstand light or fun desk lamp. I don’t think much studying will be done, and your kiddo will certainly like playing with the remote when they’re supposed to be sleeping.

> 24 hourColors look great, the variety of gradients is awesome, and it gets pretty bright. The only major complaint is that while it does connect to Google Home, it often disconnects and the only way to control it is by using the single button on the front which is easy to accidentally hit since it is a touch sensitive pad rather than a physical button. This may be because of my college wifi network though, some other smart home devices have trouble with enterprise networks. Overall it is solid and gets the job done while looking nice and providing nice ambiance.

> 24 hourI used to have a small blue-illuminated orb while I lived in London. I loved it, but could not use it in the US due to voltage and bulb reasons. I always missed that orb, even though it only glowed blue. I was instantly intrigued when I saw this item. Variable brightness. Huge range of colors. Separate color zones for the top and bottom halves. Programmable through an app. WOW! What more could I want? When I unpacked the box, I was first taken by the manufactured quality of this orb. It was much better-made than my blue London orb. It really is an object of beauty, even before it is plugged in. The problems began when I downloaded the Colorpanda app. The app, and the printed instructions for the orb, are some of the worst I have seen. The printed manual is laughable. It basically tells you to download the app, which I did. This brought me into the world of a very badly-designed app. Many of the screens are unreadable. Picture dark grey type against a black background with type so small I could not read it. Other screens had light grey type against a white screen, again too small to read. Sections of the app are advertisements for the sellers other lighting products. What I could read indicated complex steps for programming the various lighting abilities the orb is capable of. All I wanted at the start was to turn on the light and create a steady blue glow. In reality, if you simply plug in the light into a USB outlet, the orb will glow and sort of pulsate in a yellow-orange range. I found no way to change anything about this lighting scheme. I could not get the lamp to connect to the app, largely because I could not find legible directions for how to do this. Other reviewers have described similar circumstances, but one or two mentioned abandoning the Colorpanda app and trying again with the Smart Life app. Bingo! Success! The Smart Life app works quite well and can be used to accomplish anything that would have been possible with the Colorpanda app. You need to pair the orb with the app. I recommend starting with the app, and then plugging in the orb. Smart Life will guide you to pair the app and the orb. Then, your fun will begin. The orb itself seems to be very well made. The light sources within it cannot be replaced by the user, so we are instructed that when the lights no longer work, we need to replace the entire unit. I was able to quickly set a steady blue glow similar to the one I missed from London. But this orb can do much more. There are two lighting zones, one for the top half and one for the bottom half. You can set them to the same color, or multiple colors. You can create color transitions that change over time. You can set timers for turning the orb on or off on a schedule of your choice. The quality of light coming from this white ball is very rich and beautiful. If you give this as a gift, you need also to provide detailed instructions for setting up the ball. If you give it to someone who is not tech-savvy, you may need to help that person get it working. I am fairly tech-savvy, but I almost gave up on getting this working. The seller needs to provide a much better written instruction manual, and the manufacturer needs to make the app MUCH MORE user-friendly. Now that I have it working, I am very pleased with the product and delighted to have it.
