Buenisima! A mi hija le encanta! Inclusive le ayuda a aprender los colores

Me gusto mucho pero entiendo las otras opiniones cuando dicen que está muy brillante. Lo brillante no es en sí la luz que da en un cuarto o pasillo, es más bien al ver directamente el cuadro. Definitivamente si la vas a tener a lado de la cama, te va a molestar al dormir. Como luz indirecta la verdad es muy bueno, simplemente para dormir hay que ponerlo en un lugar que no puedas verlo directamente. Algo que no me gustó, es que no tiene botón de apagado. Solamente se apaga cuando el sensor de luz detecta otra luz. Entonces, si lo tienes en un lugar que siempre esté medio oscuro, siempre va a estar prendido. Yo lo puse en el baño y pues hay una ventana chiquita, lo suficiente para que ilumine el baño sin necesidad de prender la luz durante el día, pero el sensor sigue considerando muy oscuro así que se queda prendido. Otra cosa es que dice que tiene como niveles de intensidad de brillo alto y bajo. Esto es cierto pero solo en los colores blanco y rojo. Los demás colores solo tienen una intensidad. Funciona bien, los colores se ven muy bien y da una luz adecuada, ni muy brillante ni muy tenue (al iluminar el cuarto o pasillo donde lo tengas). Viendo directamente, si es muy brillante.

I ordered the GE Color Changing LED Night Light based on all the good reviews. When it arrived, one of the prongs was bent and it would not fit into the outlet unless I forcefully bent it. I didn’t want to do that in case it broke. Whomever packaged the night light did so in a plastic envelope. That’s why the prongs bent. Not a good idea! So I requested a replacement and was told to toss the damaged light, which I did. But first, I tried bending the prongs to see if I could fix it but as expected, it broke. When the replacement arrived, it would not work even though the prongs were fine. It simply wouldn’t turn on. Maybe I got a bad batch? I don’t know but I ended up tossing it (again!) and took the loss. I didn’t want to go through the trouble of complaining (again) because I didn’t want Amazon to think I was scamming. I order a lot and don’t return too often but I’d rather save my complaints for more expensively priced items. 2 night lights ordered. 2 non working night lights received. Bummer! It looks cool and I wish I could get a working one but I’ll have to shop elsewhere. UPDATE 6/9: So when visiting his home, I walked into my dad’s garage about 2-3 days after I’d tossed the broken light into the trash bin and there was the GE night light, plugged into the wall. I thought it odd he’d have the exact same one but he explained he pulled it from the outdoor bin on his way out after tossing my trash. He said he shook it and could hear something rattling around but when he plugged it in, it worked after pushing the button to cycle through colors. I guess dads know how to make stuff work. I don’t know what happened but it’s fine now therefore I’m changing my review to 5 stars. It’s really cool and I love the colors. I’ll have to order another because I want one for myself.

Overall, these are really great to have. I like having a bit of ambient light when I come into to my apartment in the dark. They have a light sensor, so it comes on when you shut off the lights. It cycles through different colours -- red, green, blue, etc. I haven't bothered checking if you can set it to a single colour because I like it switching between them. The only thing I realized is some colours (e.g. red) light up the room way less than others (e.g. blue). So it goes darker and lighter, and dark again, etc. I'm fine with this. I find it a fun little light so I'm sure it would be great as a kids night light as well.
