Pros

Great product. Took about 25 min to install. Great installation guide inside the retail box. Works & looks great!

Amazingly obtuse programming instructions. Can't beat this switch. Leviton’s pdf on their website shows the a-b switch and has correct instructions.



Cons

Amazon fixed the problem for me - but that probably won't help you if you too make the mistake of ordering this defective dimmer. It flickers consistently at the lowest setting, and sometimes starts to flicker just about anywhere. The dimmer slider se...  Read More

Four months later and it barely works. Anything else is problematic. Such a nightmare.

Package was hastily repacked by the previous purchaser. Not checked for functionality by amazon. Only option offered is to mail the device back to them.

The range and smoothness of the dimmer transitions is also poor. The problem is, it doesn't dim.

Quality


A quality switch made to be easy to use and to last


Very easy to install and works great


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


The wiring process only took about 5 minutes from start to finish.

Price


Amazing product for almost half the price.


Priced much higher since last time i bought a dimmer.


Nearly 25 to 50% less in price than at my local home improvement store.

Shipping


It came in quickly (2 days) and i replaced the old one in about 15 minutes.

Packaging/appearance


It was a 2 inch box that they had nails driven through it horizontally.


I wanted a dimmer with a rocker switch once it's set, and it had to be low profile, as the box is shallow, with quite a few wires.

Competitiveness


My guess is that it's a "home-user" product as compared to the "commercial grade" products i'm used to.


I bought this leviton, sureslide dimmer switch after trying, and later returning, a cheaper brand (bestten).

    My go to when i need this type control


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Because of the little switch at the bottom of the slider switch you will have to sacrifice about 20 of the dimmable range that you will get with their other model of this similar design


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I was super disappointed to learn this first hand


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Getting the correct compatible bulbs is essential with dimmer switches but leviton provides that information


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Yes the best bulbs are not cheap but then when you buy the recommended bulbs they dont flicker


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But like many others have noted it came with the wrong instruction sheet


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The instructions with a 2012 date describe the old desgn with an ledfcfl switch
