Great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup was quick and painless. I’m handy with electrical so the installation was straight forward. The app made it very easy to setup and then provide the necessary firmware update. I use the switch and several other plugs with HomeKit and they turn on and off quickly.

Great Smart Switch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super easy to install. Comes with wire nuts included and instructions are super clear when it comes to swap from a dumb switch. Pairing to my home wifi was done in less than a few minutes and integrates easily with Google home.

Awesome Light Switch
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a GREAT smart light switch. Easy to install, if you have a basic understanding of electrical work. If NOT hire a qualified electrician. I love We Mo products. I would definitely buy again. Maybe wait until the price is right and get two more.

Great when they work
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wemo devices are great when they work. Frustrating when not. Good if you’re willing to fight with them. It’s definitely a qualified recommendation.

Above average
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have 3 of these and while I like the product I find it drops connectivity with my home assistant a lot. This means using the wemo app which has worked okay so far but seems buggy with its updates

Go with a different brand.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Like most WeMo products. These loose connections all the time and I have fantastic internet.

works as it should
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Been a WeMo guy for sometime now. In the years I've had their plugs I think I've encountered one problem, and it was fixed, even if the tech support was so-so. Switch has been solid. If you are already in the WeMo family I would recommend adding the switch to your collection.

Great Switch!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I do like this product and have bought a couple more since... You do a special white 'neutral' wire to install! I also like that you can program the switch, I have it on my porch light and to on at sunset each day and turn off at midnight.

Great setup and operation
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the first generation Wemo light switch and it was great when it worked but not as easy to setup. This one was way better and it looks even slicker. Setting up rules is easy to do and the automation works perfectly. Great second attempt at this smart product.

Love The Wemo Product
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My new Wemo switch works perfectly. The Wemo App provides is a great tool to control the switch - in my case, I set up my outdoor lights to turn on at sunset and off at sunrise. I would highly recommend the Wemo products....

Switch is good, app needs work
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The switch itself is fine, but the app is very poor. Constantly requires firmware updates that take forever, and has a very spotty connection.

Works well, if only the app was better lol
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unlike other Wemo products, this one is pretty solid. I've had headaches with their smart plugs, but this doesn't often give me grief. Sometimes Alexa will say "garage switch isn't responding" and that is frustrating because I have to go to the panel and toggle breaker 6 to reset it unlike the plug where I just pull it out and put it back in. However, I've had this for almost a year and in that time I've only had to hard boot it twice. I'm fine with that. Wemo's app SUCKS, but this particular product is fairly solid.

Easy to install and use
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a lot of different smart home products but Wemo is one of the more user friendly choices. Great for beginners and pros alike. I still purchase Wemo products after trying multiple brands due to ease of use and functionality. Great products!!!

Much improved
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Previous WEMO switches I bought would work for a day or two then drop the WiFi connection and you could never re-establish it. This one however connected right away and has been functioning very well for a month. Very happy with it.

Works great!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fairly easy to install, great for home automation. Hooked this up to my kitchen light switch which my landlord has some weird proprietary LED lamp attached to, so smart bulbs weren’t an option.

Great light switch
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Installation was a snap. Wemo integration was seamless. I don't particularly like the look of the faceplate, nor does it appear that you are able to use a more traditional one.

Great Light Switch - Classic Design
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this switch because where I placed it I did not need the dimmer function. Love the WEMO products as they all sync flawlessly with all my smart home devices. I also like the decora design as it blends in with my other regular light switches.
