Get this smart switch for every room!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Claro Smart Switch for Caséta Smart Lighting is a game changer! We love that the switch works with Alexa (among many other home devices). We love that our toddler is able to turn the light on and off herself without us having to intervene in her bedtime routine. They were extremely easy to install. The design is sleek and simple to fit any style home. We love the paddle design. This is our second smart switch in our home and we will be putting Lutron smart switches in every room we love them so much! Would highly recommend!

    Awesome!
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first time installing a "smart switch" and I think I may just have to change every single light in my house now! The install itself was very simple and easy, a lot more simple than I originally had thought. I love the paddle switch design as it keeps everything looking modern and classic. I definitely recommend these if you're looking for smart devices to add to your home! You will not regret it.

      Smart Light Technology
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited to try a few of these switches in our home as we incorporate more smart devices/upgrade our 40-year-old home. We have one in our living room and another in an upper floor study. I can control the lights using our phone, a small remote control, through our Alexa, Ring or Google (we have all of those systems!) or by the switch. The little remote can also be added to the wall with an accessory plate to add control of the light from a different location. Our light switches are just plain white but it's so cool these come in so many different colors. They were easy for my husband (a DIYer) to install.

        Well made
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very easy to install and easy to control, neither too stiff or too sensitive. Works with our Alexa and Google assistants. Nice clean lines and low profile. Well made and sturdy, I wasn't worried about destroying it while installing.

          Lutron has been rock solid with the performance of the Caseta products. I was an early adopter and used Caseta switches along with their Pico remotes with my home automation hubs and they work great. I added a Caseta hub a while back and despite it being another hub, it makes it super duper easy to manage everything. This switch adds the familiar and beloved paddle design and just works, isn't that what you want from your smart switch? That's what I want, and Lutron didn't disappoint. Check out their Diva smart dimmer too, you can't miss!

          Works Great!
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Claro Smart Switch works great! It’s easy to install and use! I have it connected to my smart hub so I can use it with Alexa. I really like that it doesn’t require Wi-Fi so it works even if our internet goes down. The Smart Away is genius!!

            The best smart switches available!
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using Lutron smart switches for many years now after trying many different brands, I settled on Lutron and have not looked back! They are easy to install, sync easily with the hub and work every time! I love that you can set up remote switches to control a set of lights or a fan from anywhere you want. They are everything you want in a smart switch. They are easy to install, have the features you want and just simply work! Keep up the great work Lutron!

              Great switch
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This light switch is super easy to install. It is a great way to turn any room into a smart room and I would recommend trying this out on one switch before turning additional switches into smart switches.

                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this a month and just recently installed it. It works great and has several good features. It is the perfect addition to any house. It comes in a great color that matches up with existing outlets. I would recommend.

                    Great Switch!
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great addition to my smart home! I installed it for use with my outdoor lights. Installation was a breeze, my 15 year old son was able to complete it on his own. The remote is a nice addition. I also have the Lutron Bridge, which makes this switch work with my Google Home! Love the convenience!!

                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This switch is perfect for my house, I have really tall ceilings and can not reach the fan so this smart switch has made my life way easier! No more having to pull out the tall later to turn it off and on.

                          Excellent Performance and Amazing Value!
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Lutron Claro Smart Switch for Caseta Smart Lighting for On/Off control of lights is excellent in value and performance. This beauty is compact yet amazing in its capability in light control. It is foremost easy to install and and requires a neutral wire. The remote control allows for better usage of light and is easy to use. We installed thus beauty in our new office space which allows for work balance and easy access to lighting whenever it is needed. I highly recommend for beauty, uniqueness, style, functionality and durability.

                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is amazing and I will never go back to other lights. It's great being able to control your lights from far away. I set this up in my bedroom so I can get in bed while it's still easy to see, then I use the remote that comes with it to turn the light off. It's something you never knew you needed until you get one! Would highly recommend!

I’m going to step up and buy the hub to use with our Alexa for even more control! If you can wire in a normal wall switch, you can install this too.

I was able to install it myself without any problems. I have my elderly father living with me to allow me to be his full-time caretaker. My dad has a hard time moving around so the remote that this switch came with is a huge help! It allows him to turn the fan and lights on and off without having to get up. I plan to add the hub and more switches throughout the house. I wish I had this product a long time ago! Lutron truly is the best of the best!

Only if it’s right next to the switch which kind of defeats the purpose of a remote in my opinion. I wish it worked better but sadly I’m disappointed.

The only reason I am giving it 4 stars is that it requires the Lutron Hub in order to use all of the features including the smart app. The app allows you to program on/off times for lighting, dim your lights and other home/away modes that are pretty neat. There is also the ability to set up a remote switch without running any wires which i thought Is probably the best feature of all. Overall this is a nice product. I just Wish it could simply connect to wifi to use everything.
