Good price for a smart dimmer
The media could not be loaded. Works great so far, install wasn’t hard if you’ve replaced a dimmer or light switch before. It is big in the back though so if your box is small and you have other wiring running through you might have issues fitting it in.

Very satisfied!
This smart dimmer switch seems to work as advertised. It fits the decora faceplate I bought separately, so dimensions are accurate. Build quality seems nice. Installation was pretty easy. Pairing took several tries, which made me think it was defective. Eventually it just worked and I was doing the same thing each time (I think). Oh well, computers...It's only been 1 day, but so far it's great and I would consider buying more. It's definitely worth giving this product a chance, especially at this price compared to others with similar functionality.

Very surprised by the price and value of this switch!
We got this switch on a lightning deal but I’d pay full price for it now that I know the value. We have paid $25 for our non dimming switches so this is a good deal.We have eight installed now throughout the house on various incandescent and LED bulbs. The wiring was easy peasy. They really thought that part out! We have installed many different types of switches and this was definitely the easiest physical install with the wires attached to the unit and their forethought of making black and brown wires istead of two black so you’re not like “okay which is load and which is line again?” because placement varies from switch to switch.The app is easy and switch control works great with Alexa and Google Assistant. My only issue is finding the switch in the dark. I really, really wish they had the blue indicator light on when the switch is off so you can see it in a dark room. I’ve attached three photos so you can see what I mean. I do like the separate brightness buttons and indicator lights for those. However we don’t have these in our bedrooms so indicator lights might keep some people up and since they aren’t on when the switch is off so not a worry for light sensitive sleepers. We have WiFi indicator lights on our bedroom switches because I want to find them in the dark sometimes without voice assistance. My favorite YTuber Smart Home Solver tipped me off to whisper mode with Alexa so I use that if I’m really having trouble finding these switches in the dark although it is a little creepy to hear alexa whisper. It’s better than having Alexa wake up other people sleeping in your house though. Results in angry texts at my house.Overall we like the switch and happy enough to have bought eight I guess. You cannot use these with three way or four way switches. Only works for single pole.

Nice quality for an affordable price
Good value for the money. Watch replace another manufacturers not Smart Switch, and this one was actually a bit less expensive. Took about 15 minutes to install, would have been less if my wires had been longer. But I guess it's good that they weren't much longer because the switch itself takes up most of the box, and it got a little tricky to get all the wires in as it was. Would be nice if it were just a bit slimmer. Actually used the online instructions on Amazon to install. The ones included were a bit cryptic , and the picture was much better on the website. The only gripe I have, and this was regarding the Alexa setup, is that I had to use the Tuya app instead of smart life as indicated in the included instructions. This meant I needed to set it up twice. Also would appreciate instructions that are written a bit larger so that I could read them without a magnifying glass . Or give me a link two website that's large enough for me to read . Cannot tell at this time how well the dimming works, because I'm still waiting on dimmable bulbs. Percent wise dimming work fine on Alexa, but five levels on the switch itself. I'm sure it will be adequate for my purpose, because most of the time it will be at 100%.

I could not be happier with this dimmer switch
This is a great product at a very reasonable price. The high tech appearance is icing on the cake. This dimmer switch looks like it belongs in the Starship Enterprise.I normally wait at least a month before writing reviews of gadgets purchased on-line. That gives me time to know if there is something wrong with a product, or if it meets my expectations.Truth be told, I was so happy with my purchase of the ACENX dimmer switch that I almost wrote a review the same day I received and installed it.I replaced the 5 cfl bulbs in my living/dining room chandelier with dimmable LED bulbs.Installation of the switch was very simple, (you must however know what you are doing.) I admit that I am not new at such tasks. The only installation issues I encountered had nothing to do with the switch. The required neutral wire was bundled and tie wrapped with very little slack, so I had to be creative. Once installed, the switch connected to my network right away. I did not use the “Smart Life” application that came with the switch. I simply added the dimmer switch to my “Tuya Smart” app already running two other wi-fi Mini Smart Sockets. No problems what so ever. The dimmer also works well with my Alexa Echo. Best of all NO FLICKERING OF THE BULBS and when turned off, they go completely OFF. I am quite satisfied with the dimming levels. I find it more precise to control dimming using my Alexa Echo or iPad tablet than the switch buttons that have 5 fixed dimming levels, apparently 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100%.If anyone is interested, the bulbs I used are made by Ecosmart. They consume 15.5 watts each and produce light output equivalent to a 100 watt incandescent bulb. Each bulb has a brightness of 1680 lumens @ 5000K color temperature.
