Lutron
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- I had both and believe the WiFi switches added to network congestion. Also they were slightly slower to respond than the Lutron.
- Parent context: High quality - same fabrics as everyone else - and low cost. Fully Matter compatible. When I bid it out, it was 30-40% lower than Lutron in cost. Very happy with them at my house. Reply: I have both Lutron and Leviosa on...
- it might be worth looking into changing to a Lutron system where you'll have a much easier time finding a dealer or people who are familiar with the system.
- Inovelli wins this battle hands down. Second, Zooz. Third, Lutron.
- In general I've found Lutron's products to be rock-solid, and they can be integrated with other systems as needed.
Cons
- I'm in a 230V region which isn't serviced by Lutron; so it's smart bulbs or nothing.
- Yes, I looked at the Lutron and some other brand zooz or something. The price for one is like the price of 4 at these companies. Moreover, they also require a central hub which is an added cost!
- I have Inovelli zigbee dimmer switches throughout. They're awesome. Better than Lutron in almost every way. For the few ways they're not better, they're on par.
- I looked at Lutron... obviously the cost was one reason...
- And yet they're still cheaper than the previous king of smart switches, Lutron (which is lacking in numerous of the features you're after).

Reply: I have both Lutron and Leviosa on less used windows. There quality Leviosa is much much much lower than Lutron. There is a reason they are 40% cheaper. I was not very impressed with them regardless

If you're not looking to convert your whole house to a smart hime, I recommend Lutron.
I know Lutron has kits for that but that'd be pretty expensive to have to do everywhere so was wondering if there were any alternatives?
I have Lutron lights and shades, and a Sonos speaker system. I can control all three with Lutron remotes.
