Pros & Cons

Pros

Works & looks great! Saved us almost $20 over purchasing at local hardware store.

Leviton dimmer works well. Easy to install. Good dimming range, no humming.

Amazingly obtuse programming instructions. This is the only switch that works reliably. Leviton’s pdf on their website shows the a-b switch and has correct instructions.



Cons

Some lights jump in brightness change too abruptly. This flickers pretty consistently at the lowest setting, and sometimes starts to flicker just about anywhere.

The dimmer slider seems to only work from 60-100% brightness. The range and smoothness of the dimmer transitions is also poor.

This dimmer switch has the feature of saving the previous/preferred setting, and the convenience of easily adjusting it, along ...  Read More


Simple, good quality, i've used a bunch of these over time as a go-to for the type, modern version of the old push on/off rheostat of yore.


All the wires need to be spliced to existing wiring as the switch comes with 4 or 5 inches of wires attached to each connection.


This dimmer works with bulbs that aren’t even dimmable.

Price


Feels expensive and a good value even at 20 dollars.


But don’t forget to order the faceplate… american corporate greed i guess… $20 switches don’t come with a face plate!

    After install at random times when we switched it on there would be a flash not huge but noticeable from inside the switch

    The second one did the same thing

    The only one with this issue was on the bathroom light fixtures

    I looked at all the others and noted that all of them had dimmable led bulbs


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Not a huge issue but it was concerning enough that we feel better now that there are no flashes


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I would recommend the switch but with th4e caveat that you use dimmable led bulbs rather than incandescent
