Cons

- •Requires dimmable bulbs or the dimmer may behave unpredictably

Bottom Line
If you're already invested in the Lutron Caseta ecosystem, this is a dependable choice for extending 3-way switch control throughout your home. The build quality and customer support genuinely stand out, and the fact that it works without a neutral wire makes it perfect for older homes where that's a limiting factor. Just keep in mind that you'll need a hub, dimmable bulbs, and that actual dimming control lives on the main unit rather than these accessory switches. We think it's a solid addition to a Lutron smart home setup if you can work with those requirements.
