We pulled the Lutron Caseta switches, dimmers, and kits selling on Amazon and scored them on rating, review volume, and features. Caseta switches need a Lutron Smart Bridge for app, voice, and automation control. Without one, a Caseta switch still works at the wall and with a paired Pico remote.

Caseta Wireless In-wall Electronic Switches - PD-5WS-DV-WH

4.1 6 reviews · $115.70

It's a real Lutron part, but it's the 120/277 V commercial version sold by an AV reseller for $115.70. The Caseta smart switch Amazon sells for $64.95 does the same job in a house.

Why we'd skip it

At $115.70 it costs about 78% more than the Caseta smart switch on this list, which Amazon sells and ships.
Its 277 V rating only matters on commercial lighting circuits. Homes run lights on 120 V.
The listing's title drops the Lutron brand name and sits outside Lutron's main Caseta listings, so it's easy to mistake for the standard switch.
Buy from listings sold by Amazon or Lutron, like the ones above, to keep the price and the paperwork straightforward.

Buyer's guide

Do Caseta switches need a neutral wire?

Most Caseta dimmers don't, which is the main reason people pick them for older houses. The on/off switch and the fan control need a neutral, so check the model before you buy.

Do I need the Smart Bridge?

For app control, schedules, voice assistants, Apple Home, or Home Assistant, yes. A Caseta switch with a Pico remote works without one. Several kits on this list include the bridge.

How do Caseta switches handle 3-way circuits?

Lutron uses a Pico remote in place of the second switch. You cap the traveler wire at the other box and mount a Pico in a wallplate bracket there. No extra wiring is needed.

Can I install it myself?

If you're comfortable replacing an ordinary switch, the job is similar: power off at the breaker, confirm it's dead with a tester, and match the wires. Check local code, and hire an electrician if the box is crowded, the wiring is aluminum, or you're not sure which wire is which.
