I had originally bought Lutrons but soon returned it for these TopGreener. These units were higher specification for about the same price and I found the motion sensitivity to be superior. I have them installed in my kitchen, laundry room and garage. In most areas, both brands worked well but my laundry room was a challenge.
Due to the size of modern front load washers/dryers and the narrow depth of my laundry room, the laundry room door would not open/close properly without hitting the machines. So I installed a barn door to solve this problem. However the light switch would be obstructed by the barn door and I did not want to rip out the wall to relocate the wall switch. I decided to install a motion sensing switch that would be triggered by the barndoor movement. The Lutrons had about a 30% success rate triggering but these TopGreener are close to 90-100%.
During my testing of both units, I found the TopGreener to be a much better design allowing easy access to adjust time/sensitivity by simply popping off the switch cover. WIth the Lutrons, I had to use a screwdriver to remove the entire faceplate each time. I also feel the design of the TopGreener is more attractive and aesthetically pleasing. I'm really happy with them so far.
