Company has a good product, great customer service
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I set up my bond for the a ceiling fan/light and a gas fireplace. I had a little difficulty, so I contacted customer service. They were very responsive, knowledgeable and honest. I was able to get the devices operational and easily connected it to Google so I could control them with my voice. I put a video together showing the fan/light being controlled by my voice. Both of my devices are not supported by bond. What that means - bond uses the signal, but they have not been certified for those products. Bond told me that and will email me when the products are. Both devices have random on/off by themselves. This should stop when certified. I disconnected the fireplace from bond and left the light connected. In defense of bond, they are working with aftermarket products that bond does not control. Bond has done a good job connecting to them. Bond is honest and working to get more products certified.

Cool in theory
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Didn’t realize that as of right now you can only control fireplaces and ceiling fans. I had high hopes for what this product was going to do for me. I haven’t paired it to my ceiling fan yet, but have done one electric fireplace. I had a heck of a time getting the device to recognize the remote until I switched it from auto to IR. it only will turn my fireplace on and off with Alexa which is irritating because that only turns on the “fire” aesthetic and not the actual heat function. I can program the high, low, etc. but it doesn’t actually support those functions with Alexa as of yet. I tricked the app by programming a “new” device but in reality I just programmed the high heat button as an on button then grouped these two in my Alexa app so she would turn on both. It’s not always reliable however. I’m anxious to see when new updates and functions will be released. I have a remote controlled AC I’d like to control with Alexa in the summer so fingers crossed Bond Has fheir stuff together by then.

Only used to connect to smarthome hub/controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device functions as advertised but if you are looking to connect this device through IFTTT know that it is not really plug-and-play but I was able to connect it in the end. To me, the only value in the Bond Fan control device is to connect with my smartphone home controller (Universal devices ISY994i) so I can automate certain functions like raising and lowering my sunscreens per a pre-determined schedule.

Small, easily blends in
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is about the size of an ashtray. It took a few times to set up, and must be in the neighborhood or have an obscured line of sight to the fans you want to control. Works perfectly once it figures out your fan. We have an open floor plan, and a Google outfitted home. It blended seamlessly.

Great but a little buggy when using it with Alexa
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Bond is great when it works. I hooked up 3 ceiling fans and 1 gas fire place. One of the ceiling fans worked perfectly for a while but then Alexa started to turn the lights off and put the fan on when I only asked for the lights to he turned off.

Great way to make your fan smart
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is great way to make your fan part of your smart home. Works great with Alexa and Google Home. Pairs also with Samsung Smarthings. Easy install, and setup. Just wish it could record my electric fireplace remote, which failed to accept. Otherwise it would have been 5 stars.

Good product to control Hunter fans
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Initially it was a little quirky to figure out but once setup it works great. I have needed to reboot it a few times, but now with firmware upgrade it seems stable.

Work's well
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This item works well for ceiling fans. I have some connectivity and function issues when using Bond with smart bulbs. Hopefully someday it controls more appliances like it originally advertised.

Q: QuestionWould I have to change my ceiling fans? I haven't a clue how old they are as they were in the house when I bought it about five years ago. And they to the best of my knowledge never had remote controls.
Asked by Paul.
- A:Answer Hello Sara, The BOND supports devices that are controlled by RF remotes within the radio frequency range of 300-450mhz and IR device that uses 38kHz OOK modulation. If your ceiling fans don't have a remote control, we suggest that you contact the manufacturer and inquire if you can purchase one for it. If you can please send us an email at customerservice@bondhome.io so we can assist you better. Thank you.
