Once You Have These, There's No Going Back
I can’t overstate how much I love the Kasa Smart Dimmer Switches (HS220P3). These things are life changers. When we moved into our new home, one of the first things I did was order a pack of these. Our previous house had them installed, and I knew I couldn't live without them.It might sound dramatic, but once you experience the convenience of smart dimmer switches—especially paired with Alexa—you’ll never want to go back to regular wall switches. Whether I’m watching a movie and want to dim the lights without moving a muscle, or setting the mood for a cozy dinner with one voice command, these switches make it effortless.The dimming is smooth, setup is straightforward, and the Kasa app gives you total control (even when you’re away from home). It’s the kind of upgrade that quietly elevates everyday life—you don’t realize how much it improves things until you’ve used it.If you're building a smart home or even just looking to make your evenings a little more magical and convenient, start here. Highly, highly recommend.

A Game-Changing Addition to Your Smart Home
Once upon a time, I was just an ordinary person with a boring old light switch. But then, I discovered the Kasa Smart Dimmer Switch HS220 and my life changed forever. This switch is truly a game-changer and I can confidently give it a 5 out of 5-star rating.First off, let's talk about the installation process. I was a bit nervous about this at first, as I'm not exactly a handy person. But much to my surprise, the installation was a breeze. All you need is a neutral wire, which my house had, and you're good to go. No hub required, no complicated wiring diagrams, just a simple and straightforward process.Once I got the switch installed, it was time to put it to the test. And let me tell you, this thing is incredible. The Kasa Smart Dimmer Switch HS220 allows you to control your lights with your voice, through Alexa or Google Home, or through the Kasa app on your phone. It's so easy to use and the dimming feature is truly a game-changer.But the real standout feature for me is the scheduling option. You can set your lights to turn on and off at certain times, which is incredibly useful for when you're away from home. It gives you peace of mind knowing that your home appears occupied, even when you're not there. Plus, it's just fun to mess with your friends by having your lights turn on and off at random times.I have to say, the Kasa Smart Dimmer Switch HS220 has truly revolutionized the way I use my lights at home. I love that I can control the brightness and color temperature of my lights with just a few taps on my phone, or by asking Alexa to do it for me. It's also really handy when I'm settling in to watch a movie or read a book, as I can dim the lights to the perfect level of brightness without even getting up from my seat.But what really sets this switch apart is the fact that it's so easy to use. Even my technologically challenged grandparents were able to figure out how to use it with no problem. And if they can do it, anyone can! The app is really intuitive and user-friendly, and the instructions that come with the switch are clear and easy to follow.Another great thing about the Kasa Smart Dimmer Switch HS220 is that it's incredibly reliable. I've never had any issues with it disconnecting from my Wi-Fi or failing to respond to voice commands. And on the rare occasion when I did have a question or problem, the customer service team at Kasa was quick to respond and really helpful.One of my favorite features of the Kasa Smart Dimmer Switch HS220 is the ability to create scenes. With scenes, you can set up multiple switches to control different lights at the same time. For example, I have a scene called "Movie Night" where I dim the lights in the living room, turn off the overhead lights, and turn on my table lamps to create the perfect atmosphere for watching a movie. It's so convenient to be able to control multiple lights with just one command!I also appreciate the safety features of this switch. It's UL certified, which means it meets rigorous safety standards, and it has a built-in safety shut-off feature that prevents the switch from overheating. This gives me peace of mind knowing that I don't have to worry about any safety issues.Finally, I have to mention how great the Kasa app is. It's so easy to use and has a ton of features that allow you to customize your smart home experience. You can set schedules, create scenes, and even monitor your energy usage to see how much money you're saving on your electricity bill.Overall, I would highly recommend the Kasa Smart Dimmer Switch HS220 to anyone looking to upgrade their home. It's easy to install, fun to use, and adds a touch of convenience to your daily life. Plus, it's just plain cool to be able to control your lights with your voice. So go ahead and buy it, you won't regret it!

Fun, easy to install
This is my first dimmer version of Kass light switches. My first wiring I reversed the line and load so it didn't work but then I just reversed them. No harm done.Very useful in our family room where we want less light when watching TV. The fade off feature is really fun.I recommend this and with the easy installation it makes a great gift.

Great switch, needs more smart actions
I installed 25 tp-link switches (combination of dimmer, switch, and 3 way switch) in my home, and one wemo dimmer.Installation: The tp-link dimmers and switches have different attachment hardware (where you screw the switch to attach it to the electric box in the wall). This is annoying because the switches have a thick plastic, while the dimmers are metal but have a piece of plastic that screws onto the top of the front which has to be removed. I personally prefer the dimmer metal hardware. When you install a dimmer next to a switch you have to really fiddle with them to make the two different sizes look the same after the cover is on.What I like:I really like the fact that I can control these from the switch, my phone, or the from google assistant.I also have a in wall wemo dimmer. When I tell google to turn off or on the lights the wemo is significantly slower to respond then the tp-link. For tp-link the lights start to turn on//off in probably .5 sec while the wemo dimmer may take 2-8 seconds to start to respond.Look - the switches and the covers have a bright shiny finish. In most cases I was not able to use the included cover as they are installed in double or triple switch settings, but I like them where I was able to use them.Light compatibility - I've installed these with multiple kinds of dimmable LED lights and they have all functioned well.Light range - I replaced my living room light which originally had the wemo dimmer switch and I noticed that the tp-link uses a greater range of the light bulb - i.e. it dims more and 100% brightness is brigher which I like.These also pretty quickly reconnect to wifi after I flip the breaker off or power outage (unlike some of my other smart devices that I have to setup over an over again with every power blip)Enhancements I would really like:Enabling third party triggers. I use IFTTT to integrate multiple smart things together. While these dimmers are compatible with IFTTT - they are only able to be used as THAT devices (in the "if this than that"(ifttt) recipes). So for example, with my wemo switch, if I wanted to turn on/off some other smart device when I clicked the wemo dimmer switch, I could use the wemo click as a THIS action or trigger. But these switches I can only use to respond to other actions, for example, when my door sensor senses that the door opened I can turn on the entry way light.True Instant on/off: The dimmer switches have a setting where you can change how fast they dim on and off when you click the switch. One option is "Instant". When I have it set to instant, it really just dims on/off fast. I have a non dimmer switch right next to a dimmer switch and when I click both at the same time the dimmer light takes longer, probably a second to turn on, while the non-dimmable switch is instant. This would also probably help with non-dimmable lights. I had non-dimmable lights attached to some of my dimmers and these acted very poorly even when set to instant on. They really buzzed and some even continued to buzz loudly while on.Always on circle light in switch - In places where I have three dimmers together, when I turn one light on, that switches circle on the switch turns off. When I go to turn the light off I instantly think that the switches with the light on are the ones that are on, so I click those two only to find that neither of those lights were on and end up cycling through all three switches.In the kasa app when you select a dimmer or a switch the UI is completely different, it would be nice for them to be more similar.What I don't like -The click. About 1 out of every 4 times that I click the switch it doesn't turn on/off. Probably similar to learning to double click on a computer mouse for the first time (for those that can remember that). This could also probably be resolved with the instant on/off I mentioned before. Because it takes about a second even on instant on for the light to come to full power, when you click on and didn't click hard enough you end up walking past the switch thinking it is just takings its second to dim on, but then you have to walk back to the switch once it actually doesn't work. Some of my switches also have a bit of a squeaky click, which is also annoying.Note about 3-way switches - Even though my house was built fairly recently, for every set of three way switches, only one of the two wall wirings has the white wire. Luckily these can be paired with an old dumb three way switch and work quite well (i.e. you can use a single 2 pack of 3-way switches for two separate sets of 3-way sockets)Note about wifi - I have mesh wifi in a smallish house so my wifi coverage is good throughout and wifi connectivity has not been an issue for switches.Update Feb 2020:Smart actions - Auto off action. I really like this feature. I have my bathroom vent fans set to auto off after 15 minutes, and I think it has always worked except for one time my WiFi was down. The problem, your only allowed 3 smart actions. I’d love to be able to set more. My son uses the bathroom at the far end of my house and leaves the light on every time. A 15 minute auto off would be perfect. It would also work for closet and hallway lights. TP-link please add more smart actions.
