Top reviews from the United States.
Great reliable switch.
This switch works perfectly and gets the little things right. Now that my house if full of Homekit devices from a lot of brands, I can much more accurately review a product and better judge its performance.
The fact that this switch uses bluetooth instead of wifi brings on a whole lot of trade offs. It increases the latency of the device, but it also uses less power and doesn't clog up my wifi. Typically, I have everything setup to use automations that run... automatically. If some device is delayed by 7 seconds, it has no effect on the outcome of that automation. When using this switch as a trigger for an automation, it works flawlessly, and with about the same latency as a wifi device. Bluetooth also means it will work even if my router is malfunctioning, but the range is limited to the bluetooth reach of my phone and AppleTVs. If you are all in on Homekit, you are also likely all in on Apple, and this should not be an issue.
