TP-LINK HS220 Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Dimmer Light Switch - White

I'm a long time user of the Kasa smart plugs, which have been operating flawlessly for me at several locations for years and all are on schedules. I had no idea Kasa made dimmer switches as I've always just stuck to Lutron dimmers. I saw these on a suggested product on Amazon and decided to give them a try. I've been using the dimmer switch for a about a week now. These ARE EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR AND EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS. I mean holy crap I'm impressed with the quality, ease of install, set up and functions. I'll be looking for other switches to replace with these. And for the incredibly cheap price (compared to lutron) I really couldn't be happier. I really like that I can use the switch with all functions at the wall as well as on my cell phone.

This was the first set of smart switches that i purchased and it was honestly a very confusing endeavor. there are just too many of them out there and a lot of mixed reviews. I ended up buying these on sale and honestly i am quite impressed. They were easy to install, easy to integrate with Google Home, and the app is super easy to use. As soon as you find the device, the firmware gets installed and you're good to go. I've lost electricity twice since they've been installed (not due to the switches) and they have never lost connection to wi-fi. They auto connect and without wifi still function like a regular switch. highly recommend this brand

I've installed more than 50 of these smart switches across several properties. Price-wise, these are on par with Lutron "dumb" switches that you'd buy at a big box store, and you get much more functionality. Installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with basic electrical work. It's a bit like a GFCI outlet, though- they are fairly bulky, so there's not going to be a lot of spare room in the box. It can be tricky to get two of these into a duplex box. (Waygo's, or very, very neat wiring are your friend) We use these with Google Home, and they work very well. The only complaint I have about the integration is setting them up twice- once in the Kasa app, and then again in Google Home. It would be great if the setup process were all in one place and just flowed through. For example, when i have "Living Room" in both apps, Google Home should realize that I've set up a switch in Kasa and automatically assign it to "Living Room" in Google. I realize that is on Google- it's just something that should be addressed. Once it is integrated, though, you can mimic a much more expensive home automation system. I've seen homes with $30k-$50K just on home automation. These switches do a darn good job of mirroring that, and they don't require a server to run them. We've set up "scenes" like "Hey Google, it's time for movies"- and then Google can address the various switches and dim the lights, close the blinds, etc. It's quite a luxurious feeling. What I particularly like about these switches is that they stay connected to our wifi pretty well. I've experimented with several other brands, and some of them will drop off the wifi on an annoyingly frequent basis. I want to install, then not think about it again. In my primary residence, we have >30 switched that have been running for about a year. Only one has ever needed to be reconnected to wifi, and that has only happened once so far. (btw, reconnecting is relatively easy, as there are reset buttons carefully hidden on the front of the device- you don't have to take it out of the wall). So all in, electronics are well designed, installation is about what you'd expect, and integration with Google Home is pretty good. Kasa has done a very nice job with these switches.

Purchased these switches on a few occasions. Great product and easy to install and setup. Our of the 12 I purchased, I did have one fail. However when I contacted Kasa / TP-Link support, the agent Glenn was fantastic. Will definitely keep buying these for my house.

These were part of a renovation I did in our living room / Dining room. These things are very cool indeed. I have them programmed to come on in the morning so I can come into a well lit space and this eliminated the need to install a 3 way switch at the top of the stairs on my top floor. I was very much not looking forward to the installation of the 3 way switch and this saved me from that. The functionality from the app is very good. The installation was only given 3 stars because one needs to pay very close attention and must SCROLL DOWN to find this dimmer switch on the app as there is one that looks very similar in the menu at the top... I almost stroked out until I realized this... :-) The physical installation of the switches themselves might seem a bit odd at first to someone who has installed regular switches but if you follow the instructions and think about it the installation goes smoothly, Overall I am very happy with theses switches and their functionality and will in fact be order more of them for other areas of our home when I get finished with the current reno.
