I'm very satisfied!"

I would definitely buy another one if needed."

I love the multiple brightness options and the strong signal even through walls. Honestly, it's a fantastic product for the price."

"I bought this for my patio string lights because the plug is in a tough spot. The remote makes turning the lights on and off super easy. I haven't used the dimming feature since my LEDs don't support it, but as a remote switch it's fantastic."

"I was so impressed with this dimmer that I bought a second one and might get a third. The physical button is super handy for manual control, and the app covers all my basic needs with a brightness slider and timer. Set-up over WiFi was a breeze, and the construction feels rugged enough for outdoor use. My only gripe is the short power cord, which sometimes makes mounting less convenient."

"At first, I noticed some flickering with LED bulbs at the highest setting, but after switching to incandescent bulbs as advised, the issue disappeared. Now the slider works perfectly, and I'm very happy with it."

"I’ve tried several brands for my outdoor smart plugs, but Treatlife’s outdoor dimmer plug stands out. The setup was seamless, and I could quickly connect it to both Alexa and Google Home. The dual sockets operate independently through the app, which is perfect for controlling different lights. After months of use in all kinds of weather, it’s proven to be both durable and reliable. If you need a weather-resistant smart dimmer, this is the one."

"The Treatlife app makes managing my backyard lighting a breeze. For years, I’ve used Treatlife products, and they’ve always worked smoothly with my network. Recently, though, I ran into trouble pairing new controllers to my existing system—despite hours of troubleshooting, they wouldn’t connect. It’s disappointing because the product used to be flawless, and I wish it still worked as easily as before."

"I love how simple it was to set up this outdoor dimmer plug and link it with my smart devices. Voice control for brightness and on/off functions through Alexa is a real plus. Just remember that it’s meant for lighting, not high-power tools—I learned that the hard way! The company’s customer service was excellent and promptly replaced my unit."
