    Easy install and the product works great with hue. I have it in my kitchen connected to my Hue Color Recessed lights. Makes turning on and off my lights super fast and easy without needing to use the app or Alexa device. Didn’t have a dimmer in my kitchen before so it has been a great added touch.

    Elegant Solution for Smart Bulb Control

    This is an extremely elegant solution for utilizing smart bulbs throughout the home. It prevents other household members from turning off switches and attaches to the existing hardware on the wall. I currently have 8 of these in my home connected via the Conbee II Zigbee gateway using Home Assistant. So far these have been rock solid and will be getting more as the need arises.

    A great Hue accessory

    Works great to give someone an option without voice control, like when guests visit. It’s easy to group multiple lights in a room on one dimmer. They are really easy to set up and I’ve never had an issue with one not working. Also… My wife hates talking to the voice assistant, so giving her a dimmer knob makes her happy.

    GREAT ALTERNATIVE for old/impatiable wired switch

    I stumbled on this product after getting my HUE starter pack. I live in an old building like most NY'ers and the wire are too old for smart switches. Aurora came through with the clutch right on time. Super easy to set up. Seamless interrogation and works on demand. Other review cite battery issues or something small. Totally worth it even if it came with a dead battery. I'd just return it, but still would go with the brand. Would love to see it developed more

    Highly recommended for Hue smart bulbs

    One of the drawbacks of a smart bulb is they require the light switch to always be on. If the light switch is switched off the smart bulb is useless. I bought some plastic gadgets that kept the light switches in the on position but it is confusing for guests. The Lutron Aurora is intuitive for everyone and prevents the lights from being turned off.

    Just love it! Perfect with my Hue lights, and people don’t turn my switches off anymore! Being a renter, changing the entire switch out is not something I want to do and I’m sure my landlord wouldn’t be that thrilled if I did. This took me one minute to install and one more minute to pair! Now I can wirelessly control my lights from the switch and it really works great. I will be buying more!

    I love these devices. Integrates easily with hue app and works perfectly. My reason for purchasing was that people in my house would shut the light switch off and I would lose access to the smart lights. Using these devices, the switch is locked to a on position and they can still use the device, like a light switch.

    Had to return the first dimmer because the screw was stripped right out of the box. After replacement arrived, all was good and this works great with my Hue lights. Just a little pricy.

    Works like a charm. Wish it felt more premium

    I had it installed in under 3 minutes. Using the right tools it should fit pretty snugly on your switch, I used a iFixit screwdriver kit to make sure I didn't strip any screws. Worked like a charm. For how much your paying for it though, I wish the action and feel of the dial was a little more premium. Something with a little smoother glide but also more resistance.

    Good switch

    This switch is a great addition to my Phillips Hue lights. It’s great for when I have company over and they need to turn on the lights they do not know how to tune on the lights with Alexa. Also good to have when you loose internet services. They are also programmable. You can change the setting of the lights by pushing the button.

    I was hesitant on buying this because of some reviews and price, but it was worth it. It works great because my toddler can turn on and off the light in the room (Alexa doesn't understand her yet.). Also, I dont have the problem that someone powered the switch off and I cant control the lights. The setup was easy. My Philips Hue bridge recognized right away.

    Got this to control a sink and under cabinet hue lighting. Connected To my hue bridge easily and has worked flawlessly since it was installed. There is a little delay when adjusting brightness, but that is to be expected with wireless digital control. I plan on getting a few more. Would like to see an update that supports multiple scenes with different button push combinations.

    While I tend to use the app for everything, most people reach for a switch and then my hue lights go offline. This helps keep that from happening and also give me the option to easily control my lights both conventional and smart. Never had any response issues and was super easy to install. If you have a smart house with Hue lights this is a MUST HAVE

    Excellent alternative to Hue dimmer switch

    A must have if you have hue lights. Easy to install anywhere. The only downside is that they can be pulled off the switch a little too easily but nothing that affects the use of the dimmer. I purchased 3 to use around the room on all switches that people might turn off.

    It just works. Dimming is responsive. In the hue app, you can pick if you want to turn the lights on at the last state, or always to full brightness. Technically, since it only attaches itself to the lever, a user could still push the lever to the down (off) position and move the whole assembly, if they knew how this product operated. Not too big of a deal though.

    This has been a great addition to our smart home. I is really nice having a physical device to turn lights on/off in addition to apps and voice. Plus now the switch does not get turned off accidentally. I did have a brief problem where my switch did not work due the a failed update on my hue bridge. Once the update finished everything was back to normal.
