Okay, so I finally took the plunge and got this Lutron Caseta kit after months of research. And wow, it’s been a total game-changer for my home!
First off, the installation was surprisingly easy. I’m not an electrician, but with some basic tools and patience, I got everything set up in about an hour. The switches fit perfectly into standard wall plates, and the hub just plugs into my router—no fuss.
The best part? These switches work flawlessly with Alexa and Google Home. I can literally yell at my lights to turn on/off or dim from across the room (lazy? Maybe. Awesome? Definitely). The app is super intuitive too—setting up schedules and scenes is a breeze.
I was worried about connectivity since my Wi-Fi can be spotty, but the hub creates its own reliable network. Even during outages, the physical switches still work like champs.
The Pico remotes are genius—I mounted one by my bed to control overhead lights without rewiring. And that subtle green glow when lights are off? Perfect for midnight snack runs.
Only gripe: pricey compared to dumb switches. But for rock-solid reliability and seamless smart home integration? Worth every penny.
Pro tip: Watch out for open-box deals—I heard some folks got incomplete kits. Buy new if you can!
