Love these switches. Work perfectly with Alexa. Very easy to setup and pair with the kasa app. They automatically link with our Alexa system. In 5 years I’ve never had an issue with any of the switches we’ve bought

Best switches! Easy to install ! Easy to operate through app as well!

Great product. Are replacing and applying to more and more locations.You can program almost every feature on this unit. Excellent

Love this switch. It does exactly what I need it for. Also, a lot cheaper compared to other switches.

The Matter System makes these an absolute breeze to install and connect with Alexa. Why everything Bluetooth doesn't use this system is beyond me.

I have these switches all over my house. They look great. Have had them installed for literally years with out any issues. Little different to hook up than a standard light switch. If you’re handy, these are a breeze. You have to have a neutral wire. If you’re not sure, check before you even buy. The app works great. It’s nice being able to turn the lights off while in bed. Turn the ceiling fan off or on while in bed. Tell Alexa to turn off bedroom lights is awesome. Love these, they are a must have.

I have another home with an incredibly high-end lighting system by Lutron. These are super easy to install and work every bit as good as my very expensive system I installed the single switches super easily. The three-way are a bit complicated. So far working perfectly installed about 20 of the switches. Setting up on your phone and schedules is super easy.

Great price for these Matter dimmers. Was worried that the quality and/or functionality would suffer. first experience with Matter devices on Hubitat. Works great. Easy install. Setup was easy. First add Matter device with Alexa app, then go to settings for the device in Alexa and select to add it to another system. Alexa generates a code which you enter in Hubitat when adding the matter device there. Easy peazie, lemon squeezie. They react very quickly to voice commands via Alexa and can be fully accessed and controlled in Hubitat. Tempted to replace some of my zigbee and zwave switches at that price to have a more consistent experience throughout our house. I just wish they made a Matter 3-way switch........ and maybe a multi-button controller switch...

TP-link will require neutral wire to work.Also – know if you are installing for single pole or 3-way. Buy the right switch.what happens if you only have one black one white one copper. In this situation, most likely you do not have a neutral wire (white). If you are not sure ask for electrician. Not to combine neutral wire with ground wire.All neutrals are usually bundled under one wire nut, as well as Live Line if they are being split.Double check don’t connect white wire to black wire – by accident when working with little light – you won’t realize the error until you turn the switch off from circuit braker. It will potentially damage installed dimmer. I am glad I did this error I decided to invest in Tplink smart switch instead replacing with a non-smart dimmer.Dimming capability is good. I had no flicker. It can go lower in dimming than other traditional dimmers.Good product, outer plastic is better quality than inner plastic. Expected to see more product options available for matter connectivity, and option for LAN vs wifi.Currently I . I am planning to connect to Samsung smarthings in phone or Ecco show 5 Alexa.

I have had a smart home with 50+ devices for about a decade, since Apple first brought out its HomeKit smart home system. I have a lot of experience with the benefits and also the many hassles of smart home devices.Firstly let me comment on the physical product itself, and the company behind it. Great design. Great quality. Committed brand, with a good track record I think you can trust. Easy to physically install if you are comfortable with connecting wires, and can turn off a circuit breaker. You MUST have white "neutral" wires, which typically any electrical system done since the 1980's will have. Instructions are straight forward. You might discover some of your existing switches are not wired in typical ways. If this is the case and you don't fully understand it, get an electrician. I think most people will be okay.BUT … from an all around software setup perspective, this is by far the most aggravating installation experience I ever had - until it wasn't. This is the FIRST Matter protocol device I have installed in my Apple Home. I DO have the required Matter/Thread routers that are needed. In this case of an Apple Home, several Apple TVs and HomePods. If you use Google Home, or Alexa, or other you MUST also have in your home a “Matter Hub” capable product from Google or Alexa respectively.I spent almost a full time week, googling, trying various things, getting frustrated, and I would rate myself a 9/10 on expertise in this area. Until I learned the best trick. You HAVE to FULLY commit if you want to move to the Matter, protocol and I think you SHOULD. Even if you do at first get it working without this drastic step, I think you are just pushing hidden problems into the future. Start FRESH.All those smart home rules, profiles, pairings, etc you have built over the years - you should DELETE THEM ALL, and FACTORY RESET ALL your smart home devices. Delete your ENTIRE home profile. Start over completely. Drastic yes. But just like it is much easier to build a quality new home from scratch, rather than patchy renovations to an existing home, the same applies to a smart home when moving to a very different technology, in this case “Matter”.If you want to get into the Matter ecosystem, and I think any serious smart home enthusiast SHOULD, you have to understand that you are much more on your own right now than by sticking with a current proprietary ecosystem. The attempt to make Matter work with many different platforms, means the ability for product manufacturers, and Ecosystems - like Apple, Google, or Alexa support, to assist you is very limited, even when they want to.One MORE step. Do the same with your router. FACTORY RESET. It also plays a core essential role in the reliability of your smart home. If you have a cheap router you should really consider something higher end.When I took the deep dive, and started from scratch, I was able to set up all my Matter devices with ease. Another suggestion - just because matter claims to be able to support multiple home ecosystems out of the box, DON’T do that. You are asking for trouble, Pick 1 like HomeKit as I did, or Google Home, or Alexa, or SmartThings, or other platforms, and do EVERYTHING on that ONE platform. Also install the manufacturer specific apps for direct control of your devices, outside of any ecosystem. Reduce complexity, don’t embrace it.

Yes, Matter is still quite frustrating, but most of the issues should be solvable through updated ecosystem software and product firmware. I still believe it will become THE standard, likely the ONLY standard in the future. So unless you need features not yet supported by Matter, I think Matter devices are worth the initial pain, to future proof your investment.Hope that helps !

I choose this over the cheaper version because of the support for Matter. I don't have a Matter aware hub yet, but the Alexa and SmartThings apps picked them up from the Kasa app just fine. Future-proof but fully functional.Four stars because missing one feature. Dimming from the switch itself needs more increments. For some lights. So, an extra setting in the Kasa app would make the physical dimmers much more useful.
