I had purchased this dimmer originally at my local Lowes. I was very impressed by how well it was made and the fact that the plugin end was the same type used on extension cords (3 receptacles 2 on one side and one on the other). I used this dimmer to install under cabinet lighting a few years ago.

I recently remodeled the kitchen and needed a second dimmer for a separate set of under counter lights. I tried a cheaper dimmer at the local Lowes (they'd quit carrying this one) it was totally unusable the light levels didn't work properly the first level just hummed with no light the second level was barely enough to see the bulb glow when directly looking at it and the 3rd was full blast. Once it was turned off it still hummed (still using electricity).

Luckily I found the exact same dimmer here on amazon as I had before. This dimmer works flawlessly on ALL levels, and does not hum when OFF (not using any electricity). I did learn from the last time that as stated in other reviews the double sided tape provided is not sufficient to hold the touch pad for long. I used some clear silicone adhesive caulk that I had laying nearby to attach mine.

I actually bought an extra dimmer to go in the bedroom since my wife's lamp is high on a chest of drawers and required getting almost out of bed to turn off. Now all she has to do is tap the pad while lying down to turn off the light and now we get the added bonus of not having a lamp on full blast while she is reading and I'm trying to sleep!

This dimmer is JUST what's needed for the Good Earth 12VDC Halogen lighting systems. I'd tried using a common wall dimmer with little success -- the dimmed lights would flicker. Using this dimmer the light level is consistant on each of the FOUR steps! I have another one of these from years past (in my kitchen's lighting) which only has a THREE-stage control.

Installation is a breeze... run the wire where you want and use a dab of hot glue to secure the touch 'puck' to the cabinet's underside. Using the double-sticky tape just doesn't cut it over time.

Dimmer works great and was easy to install, my wife loves it, we are using it for our under the cabinet lighting.

I purchased a set of lights with a dimmer at one of those Big Box stores but ended up taking them back. This Good Earth Lighting dimmer and set of puck lights that I bought on Amazon for my kitchen curio cabinet is exactly what I was looking for. Very nice product and looks great with the lights mounted recessed and the wiring hidden. Hiding the transformers requires some planning but it's worth the effort. Couldn't be more pleased.

I wanted a dimmer for my under cabinet kitchen lights. I gave this one a try because it received great reviews. I love it! I attached the tap pad to the bottom of my cabinet, and it holds in place securely. The dimmer provides 4 different light levels. The first is very dim, so we usually keeps our on the 2nd for atmosphere and 3rd or 4th for useable light. It is cool looking, works great, I am a happy customer. ;)

This works great. I use it to control some under counter lights at my desk. I just touch the disk that I put under my desk top and I can have adjustable levels of light when I need it. This was a replacement for one I had before that lasted about three years. It does not get interference and turn on and off like some units do. Buy it!

You can also hook this up to a door hinge instead of using the big black metal pad. I use this every day and haven't had a problem.

this was purchased to replace what i thought was a defective dimmer. turned out it was the transformer that "died". i now have a spare part for two sets of under counter lights.

We have been using three of these dimmers for about six years on a daily basis with lights under our kitchen cabinets. Recently I had to replace the transformer/controller on one of them, which required mounting the replacements from the kit and re-threading the wires. Overall, very satisfied with the product.
