I have this tied into our Echo and it's pretty cool, but I honestly don't do it out of need, more novelty. That has more to do with my home layout, so YMMV. But the main reason I got this and it's killer feature is the easy scheduling from the app. You can set a schedule of when the switch turns on and off. It's great for every day use or for use as a security timer. It's a lot easier to schedule and set than the old school timers my dad used to use. It's also compatible with IFTTT, but I personally don't have a lot of use for this right now. Good to know it's there though.
I prefer this dimmer to the traditional, mechanical ones. It's a nice big button area to turn the lights on and off. The dimmer is harder to use than my old one because it's a capacitive touch slider. You just touch and slide your finger. The old one had a nice big lever for doing that, but it annoyed me because I turn the light on and off much more frequently than adjust the dimmer. I appreciate the bigger on/off switch compared to the bigger slider. It's a good looking design, it's not obnoxiously techy or anything. It just has a subtle led that changes colors to alert you to something. For the most part, I don't notice the light there. I've been thinking of replacing all of my sliders with this more for the really nice appearance than function, but it's hard to justify at this price. Yes, the downside of this is that it is really expensive for a dimmer switch. But I definitely think it's worth it for one of my most used switches in the house. It's debatable how much it's worth it for the less used ones.
ADDED:
Also got the 3-way switch:
So, to start, this is one of the more complex installations, with FIVE wires. You do need the neutral wire, usually white, which is often not used on a regular switch. On a recently built home, this will be there, but on an older one it will not.
The wires in your wall may be various colors, in my case 2 black, white, red, green. The switch has white, blue, red, black, and green. So, not a match, but the instructions were very helpful in identifying what was what. It went in easily and worked on the first try.
The Alexa integration was basically automatic after using the Wemo app. I'm pretty happy with it. The 3-way switch seems to have improved readiness versus the dimmer, which sometimes has a "miss" with Alexa, working right afterward.
You do only need 1 switch for a 3-way circuit.
This connected to the app just fine, and you can choose whether you have incandescent, CFL, or LED bulbs, and the dimmer calibrated to my LEDs instantly. There are some limitations on current, so really you're not going to run 10 incandescent lights off this; 1-5 should be OK in just about all cases.
I've also paired it with Alexa and Google Home without issue. It worked just as it should.
One thing to keep in mind is that the dimmer does require a "neutral" wire; this is usually the white one behind your wall (and the black one is the "hot" line). Most light switches do not really need this, as they have the live input, output, and ground (green wire). My old dimmer did not use the neutral, and this line was sort of buried way back in the wall, with no lead. I had to tap into it to make one. Not a big deal really, but something to be aware of. It is noted on the package, so that's fair. It would probably be good to make this more prominent in the listing, though, as installing this dimmer to replace a switch or dimmer with no neutral line starts pushing this into a "medium" difficulty job rather than an "easy" one.
In terms of behavior, it does brighten and dim when you turn these on/off. I'd say it's about 0.25 seconds to turn on full brightness, and 0.5 seconds to go from full brightness to off. I didn't expect this, but it's fine, and is NOT like the first-generation LED bulbs that had a noticeable delay in turning on.
Top reviews from other countries
Proof of this is the item ships with no HomeKit barcode on either the installation instructions nor on the dimmer itself, so this is a known problem. All other current Wemo devices that are HomeKit compatible have the barcode present on device and install paperwork.
You can connect this to the Wemo app using the add device method where the Wemo product generates its own wifi, and then connects to your home network. However after doing so, in Wemo app there is a setting that allows you to “Connect to our smart home partners” and lists Alexa, Google, Apple Home and IFTTT. Navigating to the Apple home brings up a list of your devices. The dimmer has “connect” greyed out. Also navigating to “Settings and About” then “Hardware Info” and picking the dimmer, look down at the HomeKit Setup code field and says “NOT AVAILABLE YET”. And no I’m not yelling, it is on all caps in the app!
I spent 30min on phone with tech support who were very polite and basically it is a known problem with compatibility of the device and HomeKit that the Wemo engineers are working on with Apple. Ok I get it, not everything can be compatible immediately and may need some time in development... before the product is brought to market and advertised as HomeKit compatible.
I asked if Wemo would send a Wemo bridge as a workaround in meantime and wasn’t given a good answer, only that engineers are working on future firmware update.
Basically feel deceived by Wemo and disappointed that Amazon is pushing the dimmer as compatible with HomeKit when it is not.
The dimmer itself works well with Wemo app, and the customizing for LED, CFL etc works well. If you have good LED bulbs they will dim down to almost nothing and all the way to full power with no flicker. My previous dimmer was LED compatible, but could not go as dim as the Wemo and it also flickered unless you ran it to 100% then dimmed. Not so for the Wemo. So the dimmer is good bit HomeKit compatibility is not.
Caveat emptor unless you are willing to forgo HomeKit compatibility until future firmware update...
Probably the software has changed. Same thing happened when we installed a newer Wemo light switch awhile ago.
