Very easy to install yourself. Does not take up any counter space and does just about everything an echo or google home can. Can't wait fro them to act as sensors for the Ecobee thermostats.

This wall switch would be great if Ecobee allowed it to function as a temperature sensor. Additionally it would be nice if it would allow dimming of the lights too. If you activate the motion and auto on light feature there’s not a way to say to set restrictions. For example while sleeping, if you turn over you may not want the light to come on.

The Ecobee switch is a "nice try" product. It's great in design, not great in implementation. The first problem for some may be that it requires a common lead in the wiring box. Some older houses do not include this, and there's no way around it. Luckily, I have commons, but that's where the luck stops. I could not even get the switch to work. The packaging is excellent and high quality. The instructions are simple. It just did not work once I connected it. All it would do is blink green, clearly an error code, but one for which there is no explanation (and I searched all the online forums). It might be that I was trying to control LED lights, I have noticed this issue with some "smart switches", but it was replacing a Lutron Caseta that works fine with these LED's. The next problem is the support. I called the 800 number and was told there was a 9 minute wait, so I selected the automatic call back. 3 hours later I realized I had not been called back. I called again. Again a 9 minute wait, but this time I held on the line. After 45 minutes on hold I just gave up, so negative stars for (a) lying on the hold time (b) failure to execute a simple call back and (c) general overall failure to resolve the issue. While I did not even get this far, I'm also led to understand by the instructions that the light switch portion has no dimmer and that the Alexa wake word cannot be changed. I have also seen in the support forums that the voice recognition is very weak. On the bright side, the return was easy. I would not recommend this switch as Ecobee seems to have rushed it to market without any plan to support it.Read full review

This is just a smart light switch with Alexa integrated made by Ecobee, not a room sensor that is a light switch with Alexa integrated made by Ecobee. The difference is I could have gotten the first description for less.

Cons: Disappointed to discover that Alexa in switch does not support drop-in to other Alexa's Alexa does not support turning switch on for a designated period of time
