TREATLIFE Smart Dimmer Switch, Single-Pole Smart Switch for Dimmable Bulbs, 2.4GHz WiFi Smart Light Switch Works with Alexa and Google Home, APP Remote Control, Neutral Wire Required

Because of the layout of my living room my recliner is in the middle of the room, not close to any plugs or lamps. There is a spotlight over the fireplace that I was able to aim at my chair, so I could have light to read or work. Only problem, the dimmer switch is on the wall I need to get up, go around the back of my chair, turn the light on, and come back. Not exactly a cardio workout, but inconvenient at the least.Enter this little beauty. It just simply does what I need it to do, at a good price, and with a minimum of set-up muss and fuss. The instructions were simple and clear. Only hiccup was that my wiring at the wall plate (housing a dimmer, a light switch, and a three-way light switch) was a bit non-standard, so I needed to do a bit of research, figure-crossing, and a quick prayer. The problem was totally in the wiring, and not the dimmer. Once I had that figured out I hooked up the wiring, reassembled the panel, and was ready to switch power back on. I installed the app on my phone, signed in, and switched power back on. The switch automatically went into pairing mode, and the app acquired it. I forgot to disable the 5Ghz WiFi as the instructions said, but the switch was able to find the concurrently running 2.4 Ghz signal and locked on to that. Enter the password and the app had control. I then loaded the skill to Alexa, had her located the new device, and I was ready to go.I especially appreciate that Alexa and the switch were able to communicate without an extra hub in the middle, like some other devices need. Now I can sit in my chair, call for the lights at the level I need, and turn them off to settle in for a movie, all without the bother of going over to the switch. Additionally, I get the security bonus of setting a timer to turn the light on and off when I am gone, so it looks like someone is home. And the subtle led light on the face of the switch makes it easy to locate in the dark for that midnight kitchen run without having to have a conversation with Alexa and waking my wife. As an older guy who saw the original run of Star Trek in the 60s, I love having all these things at my voice command. This switch is solid gold.

Easy to install & use Smart Dimming Switch. Packaged perfectly to avoid damage. All parts are included. Great written and visual installation instructions. Amazon sends you a follow up email walking you through how to set it up with Treat;ire and Alexa app. Able to use as s dumb (manual) switch or as part of your home lighting automation system. Highly recommend

Before I tell you my thoughts on this product, let me give you some background on what I am currently using in my house. I have a Hue hub and a Lutron hub, five hue bulbs, four lutron dimmers and fan controls, two Treatlife dimmer switches, and three off brand smart bulbs. I also have everything tied into my Alexa.I am running the off brand bulbs and Treatlife switches on the smart life app. The lutron and hue equipment run through their respective hubs. As far as basic function is concerned, all of my switches work mostly the same. Alexa can control all of them consistently.There are three things that set the Treatlife switches apart from the lutron switches. The manual function of the switch, the aesthetics of the switch, and the ability to function without a hub.First, the treatlife switches have a much more user friendly manual function. They have a touch sensitive brightness adjustment and a simple push on the bottom of the switch turns it on and off manually. The lutron switches have four separate buttons and very little lighting. They can be challenging to operate at night or if you aren't directly looking at them.Secondly, they just look cleaner than the lutron switches. The treatlife switches are smooth and very minimalist. The LEDs on them are bright enough to be helpful but not so bright that they are annoying.And finally, you don't need a hub to run them. I have quite a few components running in my home and was looking for switches that don't require the addition of more. These fool the bill perfectly. They connect to the app very easily and have worked since they were connected.I am very happy with these switches and would recommend them to anybody looking to automate their home.

This Dimmer Switch is a fantastic addition to any smart home setup. Installation is straightforward, making it accessible even for those who aren't particularly tech-savvy. The switches integrate seamlessly with Alexa and Google Home, allowing for convenient voice control to adjust your lighting effortlessly.One of the standout features is the TREATLIFE app, which provides additional customization options. You can set schedules, create lighting scenes, and adjust brightness levels, all from your smartphone. This flexibility enhances the overall user experience, making it easy to create the perfect ambiance for any occasion.Another great aspect is that you don’t have to connect it to Wi-Fi for it to function. This means you can use it like a regular light switch, which is perfect for households where not everyone wants to engage with smart technology. Even without the smart features enabled, the switch operates effectively and reliably, ensuring your lights can be controlled as usual.The dimmer function works smoothly, allowing for precise control over lighting levels, which is particularly nice for creating a cozy atmosphere in living spaces or dining areas. Overall, it's offers a great value for upgrading your home lighting while providing the flexibility of smart features when you want them. It’s a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to enhance their smart home experience!

Easy to install. Works as promised. I did not set it up for phone use as I do not yet have the station to do so.
