We’re big fans of the Philips Hue smart bulbs and lighting line. The products are a great way to level up the ambiance in your home, giving you control over color and timing to create just the right mood. But Hue lighting and bulbs are far from cheap, so you’ll likely want to find a deal if you’re ready to try them out.
Luckily, Woot is running a sale until April 14 on new and refurbished Philips Hue smart lights with some sizeable discounts — as much as 63% off. On top of that, today only (April 4) through 11:59 CST, you can save an extra 15% on your order with the offer code 15OFF at checkout.
Refurbished devices are those that previous buyers have returned, but they’ve been inspected and restored to fully working condition. This makes them a solid way to spend less money compared to buying new. Some of the discounts are “open box,” but still in new condition. Regardless, your purchase is backed by a 90-day Woot limited warranty, just in case.

Why this deal matters
Buying refurbished and open-box products is one way to get deep discounts on things that typically cost a fair amount, and Woot often hosts sales like this with solid offers on such products. This sale includes tons of Philips Hue items, ranging from light bulbs to switches to floor lamps.
These products are usually quite expensive, so it’s worth taking advantage of sales when they come around. However, products on Woot do tend to sell out quickly, and we expect the same in this case. So, if you see something you want, grab it now. Also, take advantage of the short-lived additional 15% discount before the clock runs out. Use the offer code 15OFF at checkout.
