Great price.
Well made.
Works perfect.
Ability to 'fine tune' low level setting a great asset so dimmer only goes as low as you set it not off.
Dims low energy lamps without that annoying flicker on the low setting.
Definitely recommend.

Great product, great price

Good quality dimmer that works well with my 6 LED down-lighters. The low light level adjustment is particularly useful.

After buying a couple of other dimmer switches for my 12 LED spotlights and them all flickering or not dimming low enough, I bought this one. Cheaper than most and with a screw on the back to dial in the lower power/light, I’d highly recommend this switch! It does buzz a little but you’d have to get close enough to hear it.

Not needed

I'm sure this is fine, but I bought it in error not realising that the unit I was replacing was completely wireless and no cables in the back box

Look good but had issues with buzzing

DIY Floorer Verified Purchase

Replaced all our fittings with new sealed LED units which were brighter so wanted to add dimmers. These fitted the bill but had issues with buzzing which seems to be a common issue with a lot of brands. Ended up returning most of the ones I bought.

Returned , poor with LED

This dimmer switch was a replacement a faulty programmable Axion dimmer switch which used to turn off when turning to low setting despite following instructions.
This BG switch has a simple (jewelers size) screw adjuster on the back of the switch to adjust the minimum brightness of the dimmer range. Much simpler and works.
Hopefully this push button switch lasts longer than the last one. So far so good.
Note: You probably need a 1 inch back box to accommodate the back of the switch.

Average lifespan, flicker free

Average dimmer, replacing identical after few years, with designed failure. This one works flicker free & can apparently work with leading or trailing edge LED's. Best up it's British made, which is somewhat of a swear word these days

Does what it says on the tin!

With 4 x IP65 in bathroom, the original 150w dimmer fitted gave up after a year. This does the job hope it lasts.
