What Customers Are Saying

Customers are divided on this in-wall timer. Many praise its programming flexibility, accurate scheduling, backup battery, and straightforward installation once powered up. However, a substantial group reports frustrating power-up delays—ranging from 15 minutes to several hours—with some units never activating despite correct wiring. Reviewers frequently note instructions fail to mention the charging requirement, creating confusion and distrust. Those who overcome the initial hurdle find the device reliable and energy-efficient, though some experience outright failure or compatibility issues with older wiring setups.

Excellent

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's very easy to install. It works efficiently. Its compatibility must be exact. Its precision is excellent, and it has excellent durability.

Solid timer with straightforward instructions

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently got the Utilitech 15 Amp 120 Volt In-Wall Timer. Honestly, electrical items are not something I normally interested in but this one is a good one. The installation guide was surprisingly straightforward. I'm not nearly a professional or even passionate electrician, but I was able to understand it. The instructions were clear, although it does require some basic wiring knowledge, or in my case having help from someone who has it). T...

Easy install!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was nervous when I received this product because I thought it would be difficult to install. It is so easy to install and program anyone can do it. It also makes putting a timer on lights so much easier.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Exactly what I was looking for. Was trying to find a timer to turn on the front porch lights at dusk and then off later at midnight. This did it all and even has other ways to set up differing schedules. Also very easy to install.

Didn’t work

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We got the timer all hooked up and it didn’t work. We searched the internet and it appears this model has been discontinued and the reviews stated they also had problems with the product working. We were really bummed.

Work great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I read the directions carefully before installing. It is easy to install. I use this to control our backyard deck light. Set ours to turn on 5 minutes before sunset and turn off 5 minutes after sunrise. It is a very good timer, and it works well. It is perfect for no-neutral wire applications. The overall quality and functionality are excellent. The ability to program the timer makes it much better than any normal wall switch.

Multi function timer switch

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So excited to install this. I plan to put this in my bathroom. I’ll also probably paint it black to match the rest of all my switch plates. I also may install it for my exterior lights so not sure 100% yet but it’ll be a great feature to have and make use of in my home. Received in exchange for my honest and fair review.

Fantastic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This wall lighting adapter looks amazing. This makes my light switch very futuristic. The installation was not hard at all. It only took ten minutes to install. I like the fact that now you can set a timer on a light switch and it can program it on and off. This is very useful when you always forget to turn off the lights when heading outside.

Digital Light Timer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Digital Lighting timer is super useful in my household. It is extremely easy to install and has no neutral wire. I like how it has a little door that opens to reveal all the program buttons. Also it is super beneficial how you can customize the time you want your lights to turn on or off. Definitely recommend this product and brand.

Easy installation

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It accurately sets a timer for your lights. They are not compatible with all light fixtures. Installation is simple, however, I recommend letting someone who knows electricity do it. Programming is quick and easy.

Very nice timer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We just received this and 15 minutes later my husband had it hooked up. It is compatible with all our lights that he is using it for. The programming he said was very easy. Works exactly as it says it should no issues at all.

Just ok

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The utilitech SunSmart in wall 7-day digital timer is quite involved to install. It seems very durable and the programming is a little bit involved also. I personally would just use one of the ones you just plug into your outlet.

There is a complete set of installation and programming instructions IN SPANISH, but in the southern United States that is not helpful. Lowe's is useless offering ZERO HELP.
