Works with Smartthings but with a catch

Works OK with Smartthings. Shows up as a dimmer switch, so you can only change the brightness in 5% increments, which is too slow for most purposes. Connected quickly to my hub. If I can get it to show as 4 buttons it would be much more useful.

This is a great product. It works the way its supposed to and the price is great. If you like smart bulbs and are looking for a way to control them, this is the route to take. The app is very user friendly too. I love it.

This switch is ok, unfortunately it NEEDS the Sengled Hub to work, it does NOT connect to an Echo Zigbee on its own. Otherwise functions as advertised.

This thing has a lot of issues. We bought into the sengled smart home and wanted to use one of these switches for our hallway light.
Its frustrating that all the buttons are flat and then you have to press hard on them, or press multiple times to get it to function. And by pressing hard sometimes the switch would fall off the housing.
Literally a week after our return period passed, the switch oddly quit functioning. Luckily Best Buy let us return it still for store credit. But we didnt purchase another one.

Not a good build quality at all. Hard to click and not as responsive. It gets the job done but if you can, invest your money into something a bit better

Works with SmartThings Hub

This works with the SmartThings hub and can be configured to control Sengled and presumably other brands of lights.
These actions can be configured inside the Hub but I have a Lambda Function in AWS that puts the events into a queue which my home server can act on.

Feels very cheap, the clicky-ness of the buttons is more of a mash so knowing if it clicked on/off is really hard.

NOT a light switch but a remote.

This is not a light switch but a remote for Sengled brand lights. In addition you cannot use without buying their hub for another $30. The "switch" was confusing and it was not until I got it and had it home that I realized the issues since the store display and box say nothing about the hub or their lights. Very misleading!!!!

Well I put this in the bathroom since I have to go through there to get to my bedroom... but I think the humidity of the hot shower everyday messed it up.
Lesson: don’t put it in your bathroom
I wish it had better protection against those type of things
