Lutron Caseta Plug-In Smart Lamp Dimmer Switch (Lutron Hub Required), Smart Light Switch Dimmer for Floor & Table Lamps, LED Lights, White (PD-3PCL-WH)

I love this kit. It took minutes to set up and now I can dim my lamp from the bed or couch. The Pico remote feels high quality and the dimmer works perfectly with LED bulbs. Seamless with HomeKit too.

Several months ago, we picked up a Logitech Home Control remote, and decided to try out some of the Caseta dimmers since they're compatible with the Logitech remotes.It's amazing how useful that combination is!Regardless, after going through the downstairs and replacing switches so everything is linked up & automated - I started to find other uses for the system. That's where these Lamp dimmer switches come in.For example, I always work out in our bedroom in the morning - and my wife has been complaining that it smells like a gym.With that in mind, I picked up an air cleaning filter for our bedroom, and hooked it up to one of these lamp dimmers. Then I programmed it through the Lutron Smart Bridge to come on automatically at 1/2 speed in the morning - and to bump up to full speed for about an hour after my workout (once I'm gone to work). It turns itself off automatically.I have it set to a similar program on the weekends, but it starts later so it won't wake us up if we sleep in.The best part is that we don't need to worry about switching anything on or off - and the cord for the air filter can be completely hidden behind a dresser since there isn't any need to ever unplug it.We have another one that's used for a more boring purpose (running a lamp in our living room) - and that works great too. The Smart Bridge & Logitech remote are programmed to automatically turn on the lamp when we're done watching TV for the night, so we don't have to hunt around for the light switch in the dark. It's even smart enough to know not to turn the lamp on during the day!Once you start using these Caseta switches, there are tons of uses for them that make life more convenient and energy efficient; although, they definitely aren't cheap.The Pico remote that comes with this kit is just a bonus. When using the Lutron Smart Bridge, you can hook the remote up however you want - and there isn't any need to link it to this lamp dimmer. In our case, I linked the remote to our bedroom lights so my wife can have a remote on her nightstand for convenience.Here are the things we like about these remotes, switches, and dimmers in general:1) The dimmers work perfectly with our G7 LED bulbs. The dimming range is excellent, and the switches are adjustable so you can actually set the minimum and maximum dimmer setting to match your bulbs.2) The Pico remote will pair with one switch; but, if you use it with the Lutron Smart Bridge, you can actually pair a single Pico remote with as many switches as you want (or multiple remotes to the same switch). That makes it possible to do some cool things - like turning off all the lights downstairs with a wall-mounted Pico remote.3) Once again, when paired with the Lutron Smart Bridge, it's possible to turn lights on and off on a schedule - and the schedule can even be based on the current sunrise and sunset times. This is one of the coolest features of these switches once you start messing around with it!4) These can be controlled either individually or in groups using the Logitech Home Control remote.5) These dimmers look great.If I could change just one thing with these, it would be adding the ability to program the on and off buttons of a single switch independently. For example: when I come in from the garage, I want the switch to turn on the hall light; but, when I'm leaving, it would be great if the off button of the same switch could turn off all the lights downstairs instead of just the hall light. Unfortunately, as of now the switches don't offer that much flexibility.If you're just looking for a plug-in dimmer that will work with LED and CFL lights, then there are less expensive options out there that work just as well. If, on the other hand, you're looking to combine this with either the Lutron Smart Bridge or the Logitech Home Control remote (or both), then this is part of an excellent system!I would definitely recommend trying these out.

This dimmer/remote combo has helped us solve several lighting problems in our relatively small house.The Caseta plug-in lamp dimmer is a cousin to the Lutron PD-6WCL-WH Caseta Wireless 600-watt Single Pole In-Wall Dimmer. Its internal programming and controls are the same, but it is housed in a plastic case that features two, two-blade polarized outlets. The dimmer can take the bottom plug of a standard duplex outlet (presuming it is installed with grounding slot down). The other physical difference between the lamp dimmer and the wall switch is that the former has a single LED indicator instead of the seven LEDs on the wall switch. Grey plastics for the "lower" and "off" buttons are a nice cosmetic touch.The Pico remote has the same controls and single LED indicator as the lamp dimmer, and adds a domed center button to implement a "favorite lighting level" feature. This remote has a long-life lithium button cell. Lutron says the battery will last for 10 years of ordinary use, and it is easily accessible for replacement. There is a wide slot on the back with a removable cover. This allows the Pico remote to be mounted on accessories that include pedestal stands (single or double) and a wall plate adapter. I think it's essential that you choose one of these mounting options, as the remote on its own is so small that it is easily misplaced.The huge improvement that Caseta features over earlier Lutron electronic dimmers is that it can be "trimmed" by the customer to match different lighting loads. For example, a Maestro eco-dim 600 Watt Single-Pole Multi-Location Dimmer can control incandescent or halogen bulbs. But you need one special version of the Maestro to handle compact fluorescent or LED bulbs, and others exist to control low-voltage magnetic ballast bulbs and low-voltage electronic ballast bulbs. The Caseta dimmer doesn't solve this problem completely, but it should handle any dimmable 120VAC lighting load. As another reviewer noted, it's a good idea to check the Lutron site for approved bulbs, but that's a large and growing list.As for the main problem that this dimmer solved: We have two floor lamps placed in barely-accessible corners of our entertainment room. Turning them on and off was previously a long reach, and of course they did not dim. A fireplace separates the two, so putting them on a single circuit was not an easy way out for us.We added a pair of Caseta dimmers, one at each corner. One nice feature of the Pico remote is that it can control more than one dimmer. So, we "paired" both dimmers to a single Pico remote, which is mounted in a wall plate. We also added LED dimmable bulbs to the floor lamps. The lamps now operate in tandem, and can be set at any brightness level we choose.We own three other Caseta lamp dimmer/Pico remote sets, which are being used to control lamps on three buffet units. Since the outlet is otherwise inaccessible behind each of these large pieces of furniture, this has added enormous convenience and an element of "mood lighting" in the rooms where they are located.I found programming easy and intuitive, and the only irritating aspect for me is that the "favorite" button is ONLY on the Pico remote. It doesn't matter as much in this application, but it still seems like a huge oversight that I wish Lutron would address.I recommend these dimmers highly.

Best dimmer available hands down. Actually dims down very low compared to other off brand dimmers on here, I’ve tried them. Works great and easy no real wiring required. Just plug and play!
