This switch does what it is supposed to do and is definitely a good value. It has a really nice feature where you can adjust the lowest setting, so that if you have very efficient LED bulbs in the socket, you can bring the wattage down so that you get a decent level of dimming. The lowest setting is okay - I would prefer it to be dimmer but maybe the switch companies need a few years to catch up to the energy efficiency of modern LEDs. This switch is also ready for use as a 3-way, which is a pretty nice feature for an inexpensive switch. The biggest drawback (and the reason I'm docking it a star) is minor but irritating - it is a white switch and a white plate but it comes with silver (unpainted) screws and looks really odd (look carefully at the photo - its accurately represented but you don't notice it right away). The screws aren't normal switch plate screws - they are very short, so you are unlikely to be able to use your white screws off the existing wall plate. It is a silly thing to complain about but it looks very out of place with the shiny silver and you will find yourself looking for the whiteout or paint to cover it. I would buy it again, however.Read full review

Bought 6 of these. Two did not function right from the start. Company was very good to replace them. Installed 4 switches in different locations using LED Bulbs. These switches have a mind of their own. Will light then dim then turn bright again. Range of bright to dim is very limited. Product is a good concept however, needs refinement

Works well with most dimmable LED lamps .Unfortunately, it did not work with my 6 led chandelier fixture and left the LEDs fickering on all but the full-on mode. These LEDs are very sensitive to dimmers- I suspect the problem is their very low current drain which confuses most dimmers and causes flickering. I have found that replacing just one of the LEDs with a Samsung dimmable LED cures the flickering problem (replacing just one of the LEDs with a 25 watt incandescent light also works but the dimming curve for that light does not match the LEDs), I tested the dimmer with several name brands (GE,Samsung and Sanyo) of dimmable-rated LEDs with absolutely no problems. This dimmer is mounted in a box that takes up a lot of space in the wall switch utility box- It should fit in all standard depth boxes but NOT slim depth boxes- specially with long power wires. The dimmer is also capable of 3-way operation (where 2 switches can operate the light from 2 different locations). This feature usually costs substantially more on a dimmer! NOTE: The 3-way wire should be insulated with a wire nut if not used, Otherwise the dimmer is wired normally, This dimmer includes a separate green ground wire whereas many others are grounded through the mounting screws to the utility box.Read full review

The switch is not hard to install and seems to work well initially. Also understand this switch has a built night light. Depending on the location is can be good or bad. The switch is controlled by a on/off button. So you cant just flip the switch - as i did before. It works but is a bit more trouble. The switch it replaced was almost 20 years old, I do not think this button will last near that long. Dimmer adjustment: There is a preset low at the bottom of the adjustment slider. The low setting setting is not a dim, but closer to a moderate light. You have about maybe 40% adjustment on the slider, versus a all the way off to all the way on option. Its fine but would prefer a broader range of lighting. It might just be me, but at the highest setting it does not seem as bright as the old switch in the on position. But at the price point (50 % less then the home center), it is a good value.Read full review

This was cheaper and better than what I could purchase at my local Home Depot. it even came with the face plate. I would have to purchase one along with the switch which would make it even more expensive.
