Deal Details
My Costco had the Feit Smart dimmers on clearance today with no limit. Others have posted them at higher prices in early March, but it looks like they want them gone now. I have seen this deal at 2 locations so it might be more widespread.

Item #1528997

Same thing as the 3 pack they have online, just a 2 pack in store.

This is a good price! I bought these for 25$ and 20$(when in sale). They work well with alexa and the app!

This is a terrible product. Expect that your lights will flicker, not always but often enough that eventually you'll get sick of it and then have to replace them.

That is what I thought. Was only going to buy 7 of them but decided to just deck out the house and buy all 16.

I've had feit smart dimmers/lights for years at this point and for all the negative things people have to say, I've really never had any issue. My biggest issue is when my kids play with the regular switches and reset the smart bulbs. As they get taller they love turning them on and off and 5 times resets the bulb. Very easy to quickly reconnect though. I use the dimmers on canless recessed LEDs from Amazon with no issue. You can set the minimum brightness in your app to help avoid the flickering at low lumens.

Do you know if you can turn off the dimming so it just a smart switch? Was hoping to use them on a few fans since they are so cheap.

Yeah, in my experience Feit products are trash. I'm shocked that Costco still sells this brand.

My experience has been vastly different. Especially for the price, these work as designed. Perhaps the people bashing it are those inept with technology and get frustrated when things don't work in the first 5 minutes - user error

Depends on the store. My 2 stores by me had it at $7 but it is up to the managers on how badly they want them gone.

The dimming is separate from the power on/off switch. However, in my (limited) experience you'll want to get a proper fan switch for different speeds. Maybe it depends on the fan

I've had several Feit dimmers fail over the years, including one that shot flames out from the switch plate (didn't start a fire, but did cause some minor burns). It's one thing to buy cheap bulbs from them, since replacing a bulb is pretty trivial. It's quite another to have to replace a failed switch, and the warranty is only one year.

Spend a few more bucks and get a Kasa instead.

I have purchased Feit in the past and they are very poor quality. I had led bulbs die after 1 year that are supposed to work for like 10-20 years. Went to GE and haven't had any issues. If you are getting wall switches, save yourself and just buy Lutron. Lutron is far and wide the best be lightyears.

had these for about a month before returning all of them. They do not dim enough and sometimes the lights would flicker/turn on and off. I'd avoid these unless they are in a low-usage part of your house and won't bother you.

I ended up with Lutron which has been a completely different experience (and significantly more expensive). They get much dimmer and are consistent.
