Reviews
Waste of moneyAnonymous reviewerSecond one i brought and won't pair waste of money straight In the bin.
Wireless dimmerAnonymous reviewerReally good.
Rodret, the quiet switchAnonymous reviewerWe’ve used this to turn the bedroom light off as we have smart bulbs that work with Alexa’s vice commands. Our bedroom light switch at the bed is a noisy pul cord. Now using the switch we can turn the light off silently. We also use it for the hallway light too. We have a second one that does one light and two lamps in the living room.
Have a spareAnonymous reviewerAfter having an IKEA kitchen last year, saw that these switches are reduced. Thought better to have a spare as line is being phased out.
Do find doesn’t always operate when mounted on the wall.
PoorAnonymous reviewerItems does not work arrived DOA
Horrible pairingAnonymous reviewerI’ve tried absolutely everything to pair this item, I’ve pressed the button 4 times and held it for 10 seconds. Kept it close to the light connection node and when the light finally turned red and I thought I’d done it the dimming and brightening did not work. Wasted my time would not purchase again.
Best gadget for my sonAnonymous reviewerThis works so well. Very impressed. My son who has learning needs loves this gadget.
WOULD NOT PAIRAnonymous reviewerWould NOT pair with the Tradfri driver it was supplied with. Instructions are useless. Spent an hour trying all different methods listed online, nothing worked.
Does not workAnonymous reviewerI tried so many times to pair it. Charge the battery, put the battery in, press the link button, count at least to 10, etc etc. It just does not work. I was desperately trying to avoid to call Customer Services, until I finally gave up. Took me about an hour to speak with someone. Of course they cannot do anything because a year has already gone, out of warranty..... So they say: 'buy a new one, if it does not work you can return it'. Of course they do not seem to know that you cannot have a £5 item delivered to you, you cannot even do 'click & collect', unless you live in Belfast, but I live in Sussex, England, so that does not work. Basically, to switch the lights on I need to go on a ladder and switch the power button that sits on the top of the book case..... A massive disappointment.
Dimmer switchAnonymous reviewerPerfect switch easy to use
Simple portable button for lightsAnonymous reviewerGreat that these now use an AAA cell for power. I use rechargable ones. I bought this to pair with a new Tradfri bulb expanding our system to another room. Adding the control to the Tradfri system was easy enough. It can be used to simply switch on and off or dim the bulb.
UnreliableAnonymous reviewerThis remote control has good points - price, can act as a dimmer switch, size & being able to mount it magnetically but it stops there. It’s unreliable as it fails to transmit intermittently when using the on or off buttons. I’ve bought this remote control twice, on its own & as part of the TRETAKT plug set & on both occasions it’s the same issue. They were bought a year apart so being part of a “bad batch” is unlikely. I’m using two other types of IKEA smart remote control with IKEA smart devices so I know the device is not the issue & a flat battery is not part of the problem. Other than performance, an area of improvement is the location of the pairing button; it’s better on the outside rather having to remove the battery cover. This remote control is a “best seller” so I’m surprised there aren’t more reviews online.
Smart switchAnonymous reviewerNeeded a switch for my new ceiling light. It had to be one of Ikea’s dimmers as they will only work with them, but it was so easy to program to the light and it works beautifully. All wirelessly so it was dead easy.
The worst pairing experience of all timeAnonymous reviewerRemote now works, and it functions well, but was it worth the trouble with pairing? Absolutely not.
Manual is incorrect and does not show the correct process, and a product like this really needs to come with written instructions, not IKEA's usual 'one-size-fits-all-languages' pictograms. I've had to rely on instructions provided by users in the reviews, which is crazy. The manual never notes that a long button press is required after hitting the button 4x - so we're expectd to bang our heads against the wall punching in different combinations of buttons until we get lucky!
In my case I used this in tandem with a PILSKOTT ceiling pendant, and I've had to disassembly the light fixture from the ceiling several times before I got it to work.
Maybe IKEA intentionally made this difficult to pair to fraustrate users into buying smart hubs.
Live chat are useless when it comes to tech and will just tell you to call a number for help, who would be just as useless I'm sure.
GreatAnonymous reviewerEasy to install and use
Doesn't workAnonymous reviewerIt came with the Pax wardrobe lighting. I plugged in the wireless driver, lights work, put batteries in this and pressing the buttons does nothing. No idea which component is broken, there are no setup or pairing instructions
Dimmer switchAnonymous reviewerDifficult to pair to lights. Instructions are terrible, we had to watch to YouTube videos to figure it out.
It’s not clearly marked what pressing each side of the switch will do so you end up just clicking and hoping for the best. Poor design from ikea, i expected better.
Let there be lightAnonymous reviewerDecided with installation of new kitchen to have under cabinet lighting included with the design.
Would have thought that the control could have been wired into the circuit as this control panel with probably end up being attached to the wall by the door.
RODRETAnonymous reviewerThe instructions are not absolutely clear. With the aid of U-Tube I established that it did not work. Very helpful lady on the help desk sent another one which worked first time.
Great!Anonymous reviewerEasy to set up and love that I can easily adjust the brightness of the bathroom cabinet light.
