    So at first I thought this might be tricky to install but turns out they were super easy and the switches are amazing in our home. The work with Alexa also so it’s super easy!

    Was easy to install and works great. I haven't tried out the wireless aspect of it yet since I only needed it to replace a previous switch. I like the dimming feature.

    This switch is ok. It gets the job done but it is not long lasting. I have had to replace two different switches because they would nkt update and since they could not update it would not work.

    Integrates well into Home Kit. Made Turing the lights on and off in my shop so much easier. As the switch is in a bad spot and hard to get to. If I forget to turn them off I can do it from a voice command in the house instead of having to walk out there if it’s pouring rain.

    Awesome light switch! Turn on and off without touching, which is nice when your hands are full or dirty. Everything about this switch is high quality, strong, and durable.

    Nice product. App is simple but functional. Looks nice and modern too. I have a few of the old Kasa dinners, and I’ll probably buy some tapco ones too. They all work with the same app.

    Hub REQUIRED

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Note that the device requires a hub to operate, which is sold separately and is not mentioned in the description or on the Tapo website, but sure would have been nice to know up front. Unfortunately, that means they are going back to Best Buy after getting it for a killer price.

    Works like a normal switch but also can remotely operate and even program an on/off schedule with the app. Also works with Alexa / Google home with a little tweaking of those apps.

    Great switch, but with a killer drawback for some.

    Overall pretty decent switch. Install was easy. Its not very deep so easy to work into existing lighting. Setting it up with Matter and Homekit was very simple. The one killer issue though, is that this switch’s Matter implementation only exposes it as a “Light”, so when you set it up through Homekit it can only be a “Light”. I installed it on a switch that only controls a ceiling fan, so now when I say “Turn off the lights” the fan also turns off. TPLink needs to add the option for this to be a Fan in their Matter support.

    Bought two of these to see if they would work out. Got them on sale and have zero complaints. Wound up going with a different brand on amazon. Almost identical.

    Excellent switch that is now compatible with HomeKit. Price is decent compared to other smart switches, but for only just a couple dollars more the dimmer switch comes with much greater functionality.

    Easy to install. Thought the app could be better organized and should be more user-friendly though. App has some duplicate functions…could be better.
