Compatibility with major smart home systems like Apple Home, Amazon Alexa, and Google Home adds to its appeal, making it a versatile addition to any tech-savvy household.The innovative design of these lights is truly eye-catching, transforming ordinary ceilings into dynamic, customizable light displays. While some basic DIY skills are required for installation, I found the process straightforward and the end result well worth the effort. The creativity and ambiance these lights bring to a space are remarkable. I absolutely love how they blend functional lighting with artistic expression, dramatically enhancing the mood and aesthetics of any room.

Positioning: Not so easy. Required careful measurement to make sure it does not look weird on the ceiling. A laser level helped immensely. Make sure you have the central one in the position you want. I managed by myself, but would be a lot easier with 2 people, one hold the light in place and another marking the holes.Install: Easy enough. Has live and neutral connections, completely standard unlike other reviews. Follow the pictures in the manual and you will see at one end on the fixture board in BIG letters where to connect. The others are for connecting other lights the central one. What may not be standard is your own home wiring, as mine were. Made things complicated but worked it out. The hole at the top for the mains to go through was a bit small. My mains wiring had 6 wires.Extra lights: Making them tight against the main light was ok. Used a straight edge and matched edges, making sure there was a tight fit, before marking the holes. Be very careful, as even a small deviation will show an ugly gap when the lights are off. Connecting them to the main central light its easy. Use any of the remaining connections on the board. With the smaller and thinner wires, its pretty obvious where they go so just link one light to other through the rubber gasket in the side of the fixture. it is a bit finnicky though.NOTE: Tightening the cover too tight caused one of the lights to not work. Loosening it and making sure the wires are seated correctly remedied.Aesthetics: Good quality plastic, but still looks plasticky. I am ok with that. You can see the gaps in the sides, which may detract visually.That aside, my room could have done with only one, but I put it up in the extension, to give the impression of a skylight. If they were thinner and could recessed, I would somewhat agree. I am thinking of making a wood surround for the sides to make it look prettier to hide the gaps and something nanoleaf should consider selling. Maybe a clear plastic panel inserted within to make it look more homogenous and more skylight looking.But I like the lights. I have quite a few LIFX lights for a long time and some other generic smart colour lights. The only thing I am not so keen on in the app. It is good enough and responsive. But you cannot save individual colours. I have tried to save it as a scene but it keeps failing, maybe it is me. Alexa integration is good. Ask alexa to turn skylight on and off, it will, BUT if you want scenes, you have to say "Alexa....Turn Northern lights on"......simple right???!!! Not when other apps require you to state the name of the device 1st. This will take a while to get used to. I have yet to integrate into home assistant, so cannot comment on this as I am still learning this.

I purchased this product and have faced constant issues—one malfunction after another. Despite multiple attempts to contact technical support, I have received no response whatsoever. I have reached out through every available channel—official support, help desk, even social media—and after three weeks, I am still being completely ignored.This level of customer service is unacceptable. If something goes wrong with your purchase, you will be left without any support or resolution. I strongly advise against buying anything from this company. It’s a complete waste of money.

From the outset i would recommend getting a qualified electrician to fit these. You get three light panels and all fixings inc instruction booklet. The first thing i have to say is the instruction booklet is about as much use as a chocolate fireguard, not very clear, you have to take the top panel off the lights to get to the wiring connections underneath and this can be a bit fiddly. Two of the units come with twin mains cable ( live and neutral ) and these have to be connected to the middle unit ( this unit is the one that is connected to your house mains ). I personally have these on the wall connected with a three pin plug. To use these you have to download the nanoleaf app, simple enough but the app isn't that good in my opinion, firstly the app didn't want to connect to the lights, it took a few times to eventually get it to work and then i found the app to be pretty basic. For what they are i found it to be too much of a mess on, connecting them, installing them and getting them to work, in my opinion not worth it.
