Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Easy to install and setup using the app. Works great with alexa and google home. Can be controlled from an iphone or ipad, (and probably other devices) ease of wiring. Easy to connect.

This is a 3-way switch and the matching companion switch model is leviton dd00r-dlz. The instructions say to just leave the plastic sleeve on it but the safest way to prevent a short and frying the switch is to take off that end sleeve and secure it i... Read More

Perfect for a fat * like me. Work like a charm.

The dimming function has awesome customization and everything from setting a max and min to fade on and off rates. Upgraded our porch lights to new led ones. Range is amazing, from the tiniest glow to full 200w output.

Cons

I have a high end wireless router that i have full connectivity to throughout my house, so it is not the router. Many times i end up playing whack-a-mole, as rebooting the system causes a different switch to fail to reconnect, so i'm back to square on... Read More

Quality

I couldn't be happier with this product.

Just completed the installation and i'm happy with the result.

As many as 10 separately capped wires in one box, many with the same color wires that didn't mean the same thing.

Price

Price is too high when compared to other brands.

Packaging/appearance

What i can say is that these switches do what they say do out of the box.

Competitiveness

We bought the dw1kd and the dd00r-dlz remote for a 3-way application primarily because it works using wi-fi directly (doesn't r... Read More

I have done several z-wave systems with hubs, and this is so much easier.

These switches require the neutral wire in both boxes and i had to run a new 2-wire romex to the load side in one of the switch... Read More

One chandelier is a 3-way, each in 3-gang boxes, and the other was a single pole in a 4-gang box.
