Smart hub that's easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have all Samsung phones and TV in the house so everything works together. Also use this to control a smart things outlet. It puts my Hue lights, TVs and smart things devices under on piece of software on my phone. Also lets me use Google home to control it all.

First timer here for zwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Honestly I didn’t know what to expect when I bought the item. After owning and using for a year. I am pleased. Setup wasn’t hard but had to be patient. Early on it seems like it was disconnecting a lot then the last 8 months it’s been very stable. Not sure if it was firmware updates.

Easy Enough
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plug and play, just make sure to have a free CAT 5 port on the router/switch and power plug near by. The install is easy, setup for the alerts is more trial and error. But if you think about what you want to happen when it's pretty straight forward and allows for remote monitoring when away.

Smart Things Hub with Kwickset
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works anywhere with the Kwickset912_z-wave but does not help add or remove access codes. Great to allow me to unlock and lock remotely. I recommend both

Decent functionality
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought SmartThings since I am looking to move off of wink. Transitioning some items like the Schlage locks was harder than expected, but overall I am satisfied with having smartthings in place now for all my lights and locks.

Works great
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great as advertised but wouldn’t link up with a few items I needed it to so I had to return it,not because the product but because I didn’t make sure it would work with all the home electronics I needed it to pair up with

Bought to replace IRIS hub
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought to replace the IRIS hub since Lowe’s is discontinuing this service. Also looked at the Wink hub however they have limited availability and I have some doubts regarding the long term survival of the Wink sercice. This hub seems very versatile and will work with the various equipment I already have.

Great hub
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Samsung SmartThings Hub is a great hub to connect a variety of things to. Lots of smart home products being produced can connect to it from smoke alarms to front door deadbolts. If you are looking for an alternative to other Hubs Samsungs is very good.

Didn't know I really needed this
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I originally purchased this to get my "smart" thermostat to work, since it was not wifi but Zwave. After I installed this, I was able to realize the full usefulness. Now from 1 app, I can control my garage door, my lights, my TV and my thermostat. Now to buy more smart things.

Really finicky.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setting up required switching from wireless to wired to wireless. Support helped but SmartThings devices seem to be a little immature and temperamental. Support is helpful though.

Solid little device
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I switched to SmartThings when Wink decided to charge a monthly fee. I was worried it wouldn’t work as good, but it works with most of my devices and has bigger device library than Wink. The app does freeze sometimes but isn’t a big issue. Overall works great!

Just what I needed
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this after having the wink, although the interface is not as easy to manage as the wink, it's not that complicated either. Since I already had the smartthings app, it was better to have it all centralized. It's very small, easy to hide. It has an auxiliar USB.

Good for Samsung Ecosystem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is a good item to have if you have Samsung TV & entertainment to control it. I have it also connected with Konnected alarm system. It is a good alternative to use rather than Habitat.

Ugh... Really wanted to start a smart home
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought one, didn't like its strict compatibility with other products, returned it, tried some others, returned them and bought another Samsung. It is alright Just wish it was compatible with other smart devices (Honeywell).

Great for Alexa enabled homes
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this hub only for the motion sensors since Google Home doesn't support the Samsung sensors but Alexa does. I like that I can write routines that say, " Motion Living Area ", Motion study" etc rather than just a beeping sound. So far no dropped connections yet.

This has helped make my house so much smarter!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Originally this was the only hub I had in my house to make my house smarter - now I also have EEROS and Alexa, but I have a lot still connected to this one. This was really easy to use and set things up.

Great SmartHome system
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a vera system until recently, but when a firmware upgrade rendered that useless, I decided to buy this system and I have to say that I wish I made this move earlier. Software app is a little clunky... But overall I'm very pleased!

Good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good product. Not great. Probably still one of the best in the category. Needs to have notifications when door is opened and closed. My Lowe's Iris did it but was discontinued.

Not bad, but not great.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works as expected. My internet is working as expected but occasionally needs to be reset. I love the fact all my Samsung equipment works seamlessly with it.

Very Useful for Home Automation
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed a hub, decided to go with this one because the price is good for what you get. Only thing I don't like is how dependent it is on the cloud, so if Internet goes down, some things might not work. Hasn't been a problem yet, though.
