The reviews on their site are hilarious. 80% of them are from people who received them for free in exchange for the review, and it's pretty clear that they have no idea what it even is. But they still try to say how great it is by regurgitating whatever they glean from the title and description. It's like book reports from kids who clearly didn't read the book.

My personal favorites (they work especially well if you read them in choppy nervous kid BSing a book report voice): "I love how the Z-Wave Plus Direct Wire Indoor/Outdoor Lighting Appliance Control Smart Switch simplifies my life. You can really have the smart home of your dreams with this device! Very simple to use and operate. I would definitely recommend this to all my family and friends who love technology"

"This review is for the GE Z-Wave Plus Direct Wire Indoor/Outdoor Lighting Appliance Control Smart Switch. I received this last week and installed it in my house. It is very easy to use and is great for controlling the lighting in your home. I would recommend this product"

I always count on in DestinyB85 and LauraC for my Smart Home reviews, so I'm glad Jasco reached out to them to get feedback

Personally, I would stay away from Jasco unless they've had an increase in quality.

I've had about a 50% failure rate of their Z-Wave GE branded switches but maybe I've just gotten a bad batch of switches. Seems like the relay had failed in all of mine within a year.

Conversely, Lutron Caseta has had no failures and have about 20 installed for several years but don't believe they offer a switch that can handle this high amperage or voltage combination.

Read the post you quoted again...you're not wrong but neither are they

I've had good luck with jasco. They had a bad run of capacitors at some point.

53$ - Suraielec WiFi Pool Timer, Outdoor Indoor Smart Switch, 40 AMP, 2HP, 120, 240, 277 VAC, Heavy Duty Pool Controller Light Timer Box for Pool Pump, Water Heater, Spa, Powerful Electrical Appliances

I installed 3 of this each 50$ for my Pool Pump and SWG and SPA.

Control using the same Smart life App. Stable Connection so far for the past 2 years.

For 99$ its not worth it.

Same.

Probably either a used Hubitat or SmartThings/Aeotec, or a Zooz or Aeotec USB stick + spare computer running Home Assistant.

That said, Zwave is mostly pointless for only a single device. Why spend all the extra money when you could get one of the previously mentioned WiFi versions (or put together your own with a Shelly/Sonoff, contactor and enclosure) for ~1/3 the cost?

Standard Zwave switch won't handle heavy loads, such as a pool pump.

If you just get a contactor with a 120v coil, and have the Zwave (or whatever) switch trigger the coil of the same contactor, it can handle hundreds of amps. Use this setup for my in ground sump pumps around my yard - mounted in an Orbit sprinkler box - works great!

Edit - there are better alternatives to Zwave now - like the many 2.4Ghz switches that work the same, at a fraction of the cost.

I have a bunch of Jasco switches that were installed by previous home owner and probably 3 out of 7 have failed over the past year. The switches are 4-5 years old I think and house was empty for quite a while so they were unused.

I had a bunch of them fail too. I contacted Jasco and they had a bad batch of capacitors in them. They extended the warranty to 5 years and replaced all mine. I was able to fix the broken ones with a bit of soldering and a 25 cent capacitor.

I'm guessing you're referring to Zigbee? Generally cheaper, but definitely not better. Zigbee stuff has its place in the IOT market, but I would never make the sweeping generalization that it was flat-out better than Zwave.
