I used this switch in a project to replace ceiling fans with ones that use LED lighting. The switch takes a little time for a person to get used to, but it is a good dimmer for the LED light and a speed adjuster for the fan.

Works great. Really no complaints except clicking sound is a little bit loud when you click the main buttons. It doesn’t really bother me but it may for others. For the price I wish they didn’t have the clicking noise. Other than that, easy to install and ergonomics where the buttons are placed is excellent.

Recommend... with a caveat (Use high wattage LED!)
Works, but frustrating. It's a fan/light combo with LED+ driver. Many fans have "candelabra base/socket." Most fan bulbs (40W equiv) will beam @full-blast brightness, there was no dimming. (aka ghosting) LUT-MLC capacitor did NOT work. Do one of the below: -Replace one of the bulbs with a 40W filament bulb. (easiest) -Buy the highest-watt LED bulbs, like "GE Ultra-Bright" (100W equiv @7.5W). Dim to save energy! I wasted $50 trying different solutions/bulbs. I hope this helps someone.

    Hello! Thank you for contacting our Technical Support team. The MACL-LFQ is designed to operate up to 75W of LED lighting or 250W of incandescent lighting for the dimmer and one pull-chain-operated ceiling fan for the fan speed controller. You can find more information about the device and what it is rated for by checking our Specification Sheet here: https://www.lutron.com/TechnicalDocumentLibrary/3691057.pdf

    If you still have questions or concerns, please give us a call at 1-844-LUTRON1. We're here 24/7, so you can reach out anytime, day or night. lutron

    We purchased the wrong switches originally which caused out LED fan lights to flicker. The associate was very helpful in steering us to the correct switch and now the light can be dimmed without the flickering.

    We would highly recommend this fan control and light dimmer. We purchased five of them for our bedrooms and they were easy to install and very user friendly. The only reason we have not given a 5 star rating is because they are costly.

    Sometimes the light does not want to come on with the fan on. You have to turn the fan off first then turn the light on. It rarely happens but when it does its annoying.

    A little pricey but, worth it.
    Installed the switch for my granddaughter for her new ceiling fan. She loves how it works. The installation was a breeze. I might just have to upgrade our other fan controls on our other fans.

    Expensive, but great product. Definitely worth the price. Allowed us to be able to dim LED lights while controlling bathroom fan on single receptacle. After installing this, we realized we actually had a multi-speed fan (instead of single speed controlled previously by the single pole switch) - how about that???

    No Reverse Function
    This was the best switch I could find to be able to separately control the light and fan. I appreciate I an dim the light and adjust the fan speed separately, and that I can have one or both on. HOWEVER. The fan I purchased (online of course) doesn't have a manual switch on it. Unfortunately, I had my fan and this control installed together, and my fan is running clockwise when I want it counter clockwise (for cooling), I wish there was an option of this control with a reverse button!!

      This switch did not work for my ceiling fan and light. The light would stay in the on position even the swine as turned off. I later read the manufacture says this switch doesn’t work for all LED fans/lights.

      We're sorry to hear about your experience with the MACL-LFQ-WH. We would suggest making sure your bulb has been tested and approved by Lutron to provide the best dimming performance with your dimmer. There is currently no industry standard in LED manufacturing; since not all LEDs are designed the same, performance will vary with different dimmers. Because of this, we offer a mobile-friendly web tool to help you select bulbs that work best with Lutron dimmers. To use the tool, please visit lutron.com/ledfinder.

      If you still have questions or concerns, please call us at 1-844-LUTRON1. We're here 24/7, so feel free to reach out, any time, day or night. You can also reach us online at www.lutron.com/support via chat or email. lutron

      It is very functional for the lights and the fan is on or off by using a light indicator I’ve been using Lurton multi light switch for at least 25 years. I depend on them for the quality, durability, and longevity.
