Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Contrary to the reviews written in 2014, this is now an Apple HomeKit Certified connected home product! I purchased this item a few weeks ago, and thus far it has exceeded expectations. Here is a list of pros and cons that I have experienced. PRO: * Apple HomeKit Certified meaning you can use Siri on your iOS device to control all or individual light’s power status and their brightness. NICE!! *Can be controlled with 4 Physical Buttons on Wall Switch, Connected App, and 5 Button Remote * Quite reliable, quick/responsive. * Smooth Dimming for entire range on LED, Incandescent, and Halogen * Impressive RF Wireless Range * No Neutral Wire required * Includes RF Pico Remote with memory that can be tied to other Caseta products as well. * Readily Expandable * Easy Setup * Secure super strong Encryption (3,072-bit key to be exact) * Solid Build Quality from a trusted name in lighting * Completely Silent does not hum, buzz, click, or otherwise emit any audible sound. CON: * Uses Lutron’s Proprietary “Clear Connect” wireless control protocol * Bridge NOT able to control Non-Lurton devices such as Zigbee or Z-Wave * Bridge requires Ethernet port, no WiFi. * Power failure results in lights set to Full ON not returning to previous state * No Memory Button on Wall Switch, just on Pico Remote There are some limitations to the system, however I feel that benefits outweigh the shortcomings. I do recommend this system to anyone that does not already have a Smart Bridge of another company, does not want to control non-Lutron Caseta products, or (like me) want to control the system entirely by voice. If you already have a bridge, I still recommend the Caseta line of switches and dimmers sold individually. Thanks for taking the time to read my review!
