There are so many “modern-day conveniences” I appreciate in our home. But if there was ONE thing I had to pick as my top favorite and recommend to any/everyone, it would hands down be our lighting system from Caséta by Lutron Electronics. I can’t tell you how many times we’ve sat down on the couch and gotten comfy for a movie, only to realize someone forgot to turn off the lights. Or walked into the house at night with armfuls of bags and fumbled to find the light switch. Or left for a weekend trip and realized we didn’t leave a single light on in the house (dead giveaway that no one is home *yikes*) ENTER: Caséta by Lutron Electronics! Absolute game changer.
With the quick and easy installation of a wall switch, any light bulbs in the home instantly become “smart bulbs.” Able to be fully automated via the app, controlled with Smart Home devices like Alexa, and even dimmable. One of the coolest things about it is you can set lights to go off/on at certain times, creating a fully customizable schedule for your home. And you can simply say “Alexa, turn on kitchen lights” or “dim dining room lights to 20%” and *voila*! We never realized how much we needed it until we installed it. (And when I say installation is easy, I MEAN it! It literally takes minutes so long as you know how to work with wiring! It only took Josh 10 minutes the very first time.)
They also have smart wall plugs, which we have a few of. These plug right into the wall, and then you can plug your lamp/Christmas tree lights/string lights/etc straight into it. BAM! All the same features of the wall switch with the plug! Dim, set a schedule, control from the app or smart home hub, or install the little remote right onto your nightstand like I did so you can control at your fingertips from bed 🙂
