## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's 2024 and it works; integrates with SmartThings
*by S***® on June 24, 2024*

I am a long-time SmartThings user so I was looking for a way to automate my vertical blinds in a Zigbee, SmartThings-compatible way. The Current E-Wand shows up as a generic light dimmer in SmartThings, and are controllable in SmartThings without any problems. The price on this 3-wand pack might seem expensive at first, but I was able to justify it since replacing the blinds with another window treatment would have been far more expensive. Just take a plunge.I have only installed these wands for about two weeks but I am happy with their performance. They solve a problem and accurately open and close the blinds. Some other e-wands have come and gone but this company and product seem to have staying power (June 2024).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A convenient and affordable option
*by P***A on March 27, 2025*

Pros - these are so much more convenient than reaching over the family room sofa to manually close the 4 blinds along the wall. These are more affordable than “real” motorized blinds. Cons - the wand is quite bulky, longer than a regular wand and the diameter is larger than a AA battery. Probably wouldn’t look as bulky on larger windows. Of the 4 I purchased, 3 needed new batteries even though the batteries included didn’t appear to be used. If the batteries aren’t fresh, the wand won’t program correctly. The box for the set of 3 however didn’t look brand new as there was no outer wrapping and the inside was crushed, unlike like the box for the single wand which was perfect. Programming the remote, while simple, was a pain. If you over or under tighten during programming, you’ll have to start the programming over or the blinds will start and finish operating at different speeds and look uneven. My remote is programmed to operate all 4 blinds at the same time - sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t where 1 random blind won’t open or close. At times 1 of the blinds operates by itself, I changed the batteries, so we’ll see. Update: I had to return these. One of the 4 lost programming to the remote and it just won’t sync and 1 wouldn’t stop randomly opening/closing. I’d close them at night and the one was open in the morning and then would randomly start working by itself in the middle of the day. I changed all the batteries and re-programed both but nothing worked.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great option, especially for Hubitat or similar home automation hubs.
*by N***E on February 23, 2022*

Cheaper than many of the other options for automating blinds that I researched. Easy install, easy pairing. Working great directly with my Hubitat hub. Hopefully battery life is reasonable. Considering getting another of these 3 packs to install on some other windows.Edit: Yikes! I waited for these to come back in stock but the price has risen $150 dollars. Hope this is temporary, I can't justify more at this price point.
