I've made a point of committing to making my boring home lighting smarter. When it comes time to replace or upgrade our existing gear, I'll opt for smart bulbs, switches, or even a smart floor lamp. So when I decided to introduce some much-needed ambiance to my living room, I turned to Govee, the best in the space. 

Enter the Govee Floor Lamp. It's normally pricey at $150, and although the Amazon Memorial Day Sale has come and gone, if you act fast, you can grab the lamp in silver for only $90 if you're an Amazon Prime member. The black version of the lamp is also reduced to $100, so you can choose the version that looks best with your home's decor. 

Like most smart lighting, the Govee floor lamp uses RGB LEDs to offer just about any color you want. We chose green that compliments the green in our living room, but It also changes depending on the time of day. What I really enjoy about this lamp is the low profile of the lamp itself, you can barely see it, just a small base and a thin line of metal. The focus is on the light rather than the structure.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

The other big selling point is its connection to other Govee products. If you own the Govee Backlight for TVs you can link up all your Govee lights to work in tandem as you watch a movie. It's a lot of fun to have all of your lights work in sync with a movie like Dune or Mad Max: Thunder Road. Even without the backlight, all of your lights are easily controlled by a single app, or Alexa and Google Assistant.
