Brightness is excellent, with a dimming range between 20 and 1,000 lumens, so I've used these bulbs in every room in my house for a range of purposes.
I love the Alexa integration, which I use to control them with voice commands, turning the lights on and off, adjusting brightness, and even switching colors and color temperatures.
