Jaden Libberton: I've been a fan of Treatlife ever since my wife bought me their color changing smart bulbs a few years ago (same ones still going strong btw). I wanted to give 5 stars because of my history and the single poles deserve 5 stars however, I have run into problems with the 3-way switch. I kept one switch dumb and the other smart as advertised. Everything started out perfect; the app worked great, the dumb and smart switch communicated, but then I tried voice command. The dumb switch would toggle how voice command worked. For example, if I had the dumb switch turn the light on, I would tell Alexa, "turn on the light" to turn it off. If I had the dumb switch turn the light off, voice command would work as expected.

My solution:
Put two smart 3-ways into the circuit, name one what you want, "Living Room" and the other "Living Room 1". If you are using Alexa, make one be a switch and the other be a light. Otherwise, turning on and off all the lights would cause problems. Now, they work as expected.

If Treatlife has a better solution, I'd love to know. I posted a question about the same thing. I'd love to give 5 stars and receiving help about this issue would do it.

S. Lowell: I have a series of these 3-way switches and single pole switches throughout my home now. I just installed two more today. Connection with Alexa was a breeze, and connection to the light switch was a breeze too!

I have had three different internet service providers and each one required me to reconnect all of the switches with each change. The switches reconnected to the Alexa app with each change, except for one. When I switched to Fidium, I learned that their equipment does not operate on the 2.4ghz separately so the switches could not initially be reconnected. I needed to change out Fidium modems for Eero and everything reconnected almost automatically.

As mentioned, I installed the first several switches several years ago and have had no issues since install. I have added more along the way, both single pole and three-way and they all connect seamlessly. One thing to point out is that the switches are almost 2" deep and can be a challenge to get the switch with all wiring into the box.

If you are in the market for a smart switch, look no further. This is the one you want.

Harold S. Cooper: TreatLife 3-way switches work well. Two things to watch out for:
(1) They are deep and take up a lot of room in your junction box. Especially if you are installing two of them side by side, expect to spend some effort to get all the wires and the switches back in the box.
(2) One switch out of a 4-pack was faulty. The light worked correctly, but in the TreatLife app the status always showed “off”. I tried the switch on a 3-way circuit and on a single-pole switch—same problem. Then I tried another one from the 4-pack (exact same wiring) and it worked fine.

Dennis: very easy to install, app is easy to set up. works every time. i used them to turn my outdoor lights on/off.

i can turn them off or on from anywhere, even 16 hrs north of where i live, no delay .

if you double up on them, a standard double decor plate works fine

Joe G.: The wiring options / guide are very easy to figure out, setup is super easy and overall the product is really good.

There are two things that keep me from giving this 5 stars though:

1). Have to install and give permissions to a third party application and associate with my Amazon account as well - no specific concerns as the manufacturer seems legit - I just don't like doing that on some time line you know there are always security / privacy issues that are just waiting to happen

2). The switch body is freaking huge ... in order to get it into the receptacle i'd have to trim the wires down, which I don't like to do - the more you remove the less room for error you have later - but even taking them down the recommended length and I couldn't get these things to fit - after some creative folding and probably a lot more force than I should have used managed to cram these things in there

Richardctchan: It is easy to install except make sure you have a neutral wire first. All the smart switches requires natural in order to provide constant power to the switch's circuit and wifi to operate. I do bought dimmer and 3 ways. Once they are installed, it works just like what it describes. Good product and reliable. One draw back is that, I id experience some connection losts from time to time. It hadn't happen when I need it yet but sure will become annoying

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: I bought 4 3-way smart switches. Products were very easy to install. Initially I thought the switches need to be replaced in pairs and I did. After I read some reviews and someone mentioned about only replacing one of the switches. I tried to put one original back into the pair and it worked as expected. Now I have 4 3-way smarted switch controlled lights. I can't be happier. The switch looks very nice if it is a single switch with the original frame used. Unfortunately most of my 3-way switches are in double or triple gangs and I can not use the frames came with the product. The edge of the switch is slightly thicker than the original. The frame is not completed flushed with the wall. But overall, I am very satisfied with the product. They work very well with both amazon echo and google.

Sheryl: The Treatlife 3-Way Smart Switch is an excellent product. Great value for the investment. This video does a great job with the installation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wbmsGHTigw&feature=youtu.be

Here is what I'll add to it. I have 12 of these switches (2-Way, 3-Way and Dimmers) in my home, I've properly and safely installed all of them. Here are some additions to the video:

1) Make sure you turn the power off, no short cuts! Just wanted reiterate this.
2) Use the largest (volume wise) gang box you can find for your installation. You are going to need a lot of room, the switch itself takes up more space than a normal 3-Way switch due to the design and meeting Federal design codes.
3) If you put two or more of these in a gang box, it is going to generate heat. The switches have a safety built in to turn off if they over heat. I've never had a single gang box over heat. When you put two switches in a double gang box you may have issues. Ventilate the box if you can by drilling a few holes in the gang box itself, this generally does the trick.
4) As you can see in the video, the single gang box has very flexible wiring with no insulation on it, this...
