our warehouses don't carry that item, but at least the op included the item number in the attached pic so that you can call ahead for availability.

Good price because it works in a 3-way and is dimmable. Usually non-dimmable 3-way are more expensive than this.

just do a chat w/ costco customer service and they can tell you what stores carry them by running a zip code

Do not recommend buying. Don't say you haven't been warned. Against my better judgment, and knowing all of the terrible reviews for these Feit dimmers both smart and regular I decided to give it a try at this price point. I have neutral wires and that wasn't an issue, (but if you're not an electrician don't think it's as easy as just plug and play with the neutral wire. Your current set up may not use the neutral wire so you will have to pigtail etc.)

The real issue however is that the dimmer simply is not a good product. It is not dimming very well and there are some bugs that cause the light not to go to 100% when it's turned back on. Customer support at first told me they are aware of this problem but then kind of back-stepped.

Just picked up these yesterday and installed them today. Works really well. Installation was pretty simple. Make sure you have the white neutral wires before opening the packaging.

There is an option in the app to set a minimum brightness setting to prevent flickering or buzzing. I ended up using the smart life app instead of Feit's app. Thanks for posting OP.

Didn't think feit products were good in general. They're just cheap because they let Costco beat them up on pricing where others tell them to pound sand.

Costco still has them at my store south of Atlanta for $25 till 12/24.

I wanted to buy some "dumb" rocker type 3 way switches at HD to use on the same circuit (dont need wi-fi switches on all 3 locations.) The "dumb" rocker 3 way switches are $10-12 each at HD. I guess I will just use these.

I'm installing 10 of these in my house. My LED can lights are 4-5 years old and I have no issues with the dimming feature.

With 2 in the package you could use these as singles for single switches.

Costco warranty, so I might buy an extra 2pac Smilie to keep as costco will run out of stock sooner or later. Then if any go bad in the future, I can return the bad switches and will have new ones to use.

I did try and wing it on the 3 way switch installs without reading the instructions and labeling the wires. Not so fast my friend! Today I'll label the wires and all should be well.

I've been back and forth with Feit's customer service tech's and I can't get these to work with a 4 way (3 switch) setup. I was down to using 1 of these on the load end, like they told me to do so and it still won't work properly. I put the old dummy switch/es back in place and everything works fine.

3 way (2 switches) are easy once you read the directions.
