Has the "snap-on" problem of a simple phase-shift triac dimmer. That is, when turning the light up from the off position, it comes on suddenly at about half brightness rather than increasing smoothly. The Lutron is a better deal.

I like this product, it worked as advertised and the led light by the switch is helpful in turning on in a dark room. Worked great for a single lamp. I thought it would work plugged into 2 lamps using a splitter but it did not. That was too bad as it fell under the 300W spec but, at the same time I understand, it is a little outside the documented usage.

After reading the reviews of this item, I was a bit apprehensive about trying it out. After plugging it in, however, apprehension became joy! Allow me to preface my findings by saying that I am using the two I bought to dim hanging lamps that have one e12 candelabra bulb each in them... so we are not taxing the advertised capabilities at all. The action is smooth with very little or no "snap-on" that is warned about in other reviews. It just cycles cleanly from off through very dim to fully bright. There is no noise at all from them. No buzzing, no hum, no nothing. If you want to dim your bedside lamp, or any plug-in lamp, for that matter, try one of these. I paid less than six bucks a-piece, and they absolutely could not do a better job.

I bought 2 of these after searching for bedside lamps with dimmers, etc, to no avail. I set up one on each side of our bed. We can turn on a lamp just enough to find tissues, etc, or bright enough to read without disturbing each other. No clicking on and off and no more waking each other up with the touch-lamp which has to cycle up to full light before going off. I also like that there's a tiny red light on the unit which helps to locate it in the dark. Bought TWO of these for the same price as ONE at the local hardware store! A great invention!!
