Eve Dimmer Switch (Matter) – Smart Dimmer Switch, for Alexa/Apple/Google/SmartThings/Home Assistant; for Single-Pole switches; Requires Thread Border Router and Neutral Wire; UL-Certified

Excellent product– buying more. 3-way switch success
Works great as advertised, both in local control and from the Apple HomeKit. I installed the switches in a 3-way circuit with two conventional switches. The instructions are clear, but to emphasize, it’s easiest to install the Eve dimmer on the “load switch,” and in my setup, required me to rewire the other existing conventional switch (aka “line switch”) so that the “load switch” has a consistent hot line. The quick start guide covers this, but it might be helpful if EVE added a better explainer video on the topic (I’m experienced with wiring, and it took me a minute, along with some AI chatbot help, to sort it out). The dimming functionality works exceptionally well, with excellent control from bright to very dim. No issues with noise or humming as with some smart electronics, and I love the haptic/audible clicking for on/off (which is configurable as is the LED indicator.) As always with smart switches, there are extra wires to cram in the gang box, so I would love it if EVE would make future versions thinner! For context, I have 5 EVE switches installed and used for years, recently added two dimmers, and have three more dimmers ready to install, along with five more regular EVE switches. The EVE switches don’t have Lutron’s long product history, but they are way more affordable and integrate easily with Apple HomeKit. No regrets and will be buying more!

Unfortunately not reliable, dimming control for LED is poor & design needs changes
I was thrilled to discover a smart dimmer that operates independently of a hub, uses thread connections for HomeKit integration, and can be installed in three-way setups without a companion switch. It also boasts an aesthetically pleasing design and is more affordable than Lutron. However, my experience has been far from satisfactory, leading me to return the two switches I purchased after consulting with Eve customer support for several weeks.The product details on Amazon and the Eve website are lacking in crucial information. For instance, the switch must be installed in the location where power enters a three-way configuration, and it is touch-sensitive for on and off, not a button or switch. While installation is relatively straightforward in a single-switch configuration, it becomes quite complex when attempting to install it in a three-way setup, requiring precise identification of the different wires. This task may not be feasible for many individuals to perform independently.Furthermore, I found the touch-sensitive button to be excessively sensitive, causing issues when attempting to adjust the brightness. The brightness adjustment rocker is positioned adjacent to the large touch-sensitive button, making it easy to inadvertently touch it while trying to adjust the brightness. Consequently, the light either turns fully on or off when I simply want to adjust its level. It’s possible that the touch pad may also contribute to another issue I’m experiencing.One of the switches I installed randomly turns on and off and occasionally flashes on and off. You can see this in the video attached to my review. This issue occurs with the switch I installed in the three-way configuration. I wonder if current fluctuations are the cause of this problem and are interacting with the touch sensor (which is something I have seen in other products). In my opinion, the switch would benefit from an actual push button, similar to those found in Lutron and other brands.Both of these Eve switches replaced Lutron dimmers which were capable of dimming both types of LED fixtures connected to them without any issues. The Lutron dimmers could smoothly and very accurately dim and brighten the LEDs. However, the Eve dimmers couldn’t do that. With each click of the rocker, my lights would brighten or dim in small amounts and then suddenly jump to a high or low level. It was very difficult to get the lights dialed into a specific setting. Additionally, when I got the lights to a level I wanted, when I turned them off and back on, they would often turn on at a bright or dimmer level than the setting they should have tuned back on at. All of this is a significant failure for a dimmer, especially at this price point. It seems these dimmers just do not play well with LED lights.After communicating with the Eve customer support team over several weeks (it is a slow process), they decided to call the switches defective. However, I came back here and see other people mentioning the same issues, so I don’t think my experience with two switches is simply a defect. If it is, then it seems there are many defective dimmers since I got two and other people are experiencing the same.Eve really needs to go back to the drawing board on this one. If the product lived up to the advertising, it would be excellent, and I would purchase these over Lutron smart switches. However, it seems Lutron is just far superior to these, so I must spend the extra cash if I want something reliable that can perfectly dim LED lights.I cannot recommend anyone try this product considering my experience. Perhaps the Eve switches (not dimmers) are better?

Great paired through Apple TV, Alexa works, Hubitat needs work
Good switch. Pairs easily with Apple TV with thread. Eve app and Apple thread router cooperate well. Matter connects to Alexa well. The only issue I find is that the Hubitat matter link isn’t getting on/off or level status. I can write fine from Hubitat just can’t read it.

Returned due to single color scheme.
Returned this item. Works with Apple HomeKit, but only available in one color (white). All of my existing switches are Lutron in light almond.

Performs reliably as part of the Apple Home ecosystem.

Dimmer switch doesn’t work. After numerous emails back and forth and weeks later, with the manufacturer, they finally acknowledged it was faulty. They suggested I do the return through Amazon where I bought it. But the return period on Amazon had expired. Im not sure the manufacturer will now handle the return.

Easy to install with a littlle knowledge of electrical wiring
