This is the 2nd or 3rd time I have bought these dimmers. They are easy to install, work great, and connect to Home Assistant automatically. Smaller buttons let you control dimming, and you can calibrate the levels for different bulb types with the app.
The switch is a little bulky so you will need deep box to install it in, and they only come in white but of course the rest of my house is beige, lol, but otherwise great.

Great product. It’s very easy to set up and use. I love and hate that it connects directly to the router. Love it because it’s such an easy set up, hate it because since I have so many it can crowd the modem.

I bought a few of these to upgrade my whole house. You need to make sure you can use a dimmer light for this switch. It was a learning curve but we made it work.

As a dimmer switch it works fine but I have yet to get this switch to work with Siri. Maybe it's me but I've tried everything. Pretty disappointed with it.

I recently upgraded my home lighting with the TP-Link Tapo Smart Wi-Fi Light Dimmer Switch, and I must say, it has completely transformed the way I interact with my lights.
The installation process was a breeze, thanks to the user-friendly setup guide and intuitive app. Within minutes, I had the switch installed and connected to my Wi-Fi network, allowing me to control my lights from anywhere using my smartphone or voice commands via my smart assistant.
The dimming functionality is a game-changer, allowing me to create the perfect ambiance for any occasion, whether it's a cozy movie night or a lively dinner party. I love being able to adjust the brightness levels with just a few taps on my phone, without ever having to get up from the couch.
The compatibility with Matter is a welcome addition, ensuring seamless integration with other smart home devices and platforms. Whether I'm using Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, or Google Assistant, the Tapo Smart Wi-Fi Light Dimmer Switch plays nicely with my existing ecosystem, allowing for a truly connected home experience.
However, my only minor gripe with this otherwise fantastic product is that occasionally, there's a slight delay when turning the switch on or off. While it's not a dealbreaker by any means, it would be nice if the response time were a bit quicker for a more seamless user experience.
Overall, the TP-Link Tapo Smart Wi-Fi Light Dimmer Switch is a game-changer for anyone looking to modernize their home lighting setup. With its easy installation, versatile functionality, and seamless integration with Matter, it's a must-have for anyone seeking convenience, comfort, and control over their home lighting. Despite the occasional delay, I highly recommend this product to anyone looking to upgrade their home with smart lighting technology.

I recently upgraded my home's lighting system with the Tapo Smart WiFi Light Dimmer Switch, and I must say, it has truly transformed the way I experience lighting in my living space. Here's why I'm giving it four stars:
1. **Easy Installation: ⭐⭐⭐⭐**
The installation process was surprisingly straightforward. Even for someone with limited electrical expertise like myself, the step-by-step instructions and included hardware made it a breeze. I had it up and running within 30 minutes.
2. **Intuitive App Control: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐**
The accompanying mobile app is user-friendly and offers a wide range of features. I can easily adjust the brightness levels, set schedules, and even create different lighting scenes for various occasions. The ability to control the lights remotely adds a level of convenience that I didn't realize I was missing.
3. **Compatibility and Integration: ⭐⭐⭐⭐**
This dimmer switch seamlessly integrates with popular smart home ecosystems like Alexa and Google Assistant. The compatibility is a huge plus, as I can now incorporate it into my existing smart home setup without any issues. The responsiveness to voice commands is particularly impressive.
4. **Sturdy Build and Design: ⭐⭐⭐⭐**
The build quality of the switch itself is commendable. It feels sturdy and well-made, and the sleek design adds a touch of modernity to my home decor. The touch-sensitive controls are responsive, and the LED indicator is a helpful visual cue for the current dimming level.
In summary, the switch has significantly enhanced my home lighting experience. While it may not be perfect (hence the four-star rating), its overall performance, ease of use, and integration capabilities make it a fantastic addition to any smart home. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their lighting system and enjoy the benefits of smart home technology.

The smart switch is great. The installation was fairly easy, tight fit with all the the wires in a 2 gang box but after some rearranging and consolidation I was able to fit this in as well as a non-dimmable switch on the other gang. I removed the face plates and used a 2 gang face place. The setup was so easy. Not one issue came up either the setup which is refreshing. The app is easy to use. The dimming is nice and smooth. The switch itself could be made of thicker plastic (told the kids to press it lightly) and there could be metal reinforcement at the mounting holes so you don’t crack it if over tightening (the mount holes for the face plate are reinforced with metal). Overall, I’m very satisfied so far. Will setup with HomeKit at some point and can’t wait to try out Away mode. TP Link needs to make a 3-way switch version. Nearly all switches in my home are 3-way.

I needed a HomeKit compatible wifi switch for my office since the switch location was inconvenient. The install was simple, although this switch does take up more space than standard single pole.
Easy integration with HomeKit. Dims lights as expected. Has worked flawlessly since install.

Switch is relatively easy to install, it looks and feels good to use. You do need a neutral to set it up. Once setup it can be configured via bluetooth in the Tapo app pretty seamlessly. Happy with the purchase and got it at a relatively good price when initially it came on BestBuy portal for sale.

I bought these for my kids room and and mostly pleased. The switches are pretty bulky, so you'll need deep box to fit the control and wires. Very challenging in a 200 year old farmhouse.
The dimming is easy to calibrate and lets me set a wind-down schedule to ease the kids into sleep mode.
I have generally liked TP-Link products, they are well made and function great.

I recently change my switches to these smart ones and now i can link them to alexa and have routines to turn them on or off. Voice controlled thru alexa or app. Best upgrade i have done to my home. Will recommend.

Affordable and Effective Switches

I just finished installing these yesterday. The directions are simple and easy to follow. The switches work well via Wi-Fi and manually, which is especially important when Wi-Fi cuts out.
One thing I learned is that with almost all Tapo switches and plugs, if you want Apple HomeKit to control them, once you get it installed, add it to HomeKit first using the QR code. Once it is working on HomeKit, add it to the Tapo app. This method was successful; the other way, not so much.
I have also noticed about a half-second delay turning the lights on and off via HomeKit vs no delay through the Tapo app.
These are very good switches and very affordable updates to what you have now.
