We're sorry to hear about your experience. The MA-L3S25 is rated only for incandescent and halogen bulbs, so performance issues such as flickering for example can occur when using LEDs. Currently there is no dual-LED control at this time. Lutron would recommend separating each load into two separate dimmers/switches.

We also suggest making sure your dimmable LED has been tested and approved by Lutron. We have a mobile-friendly web tool to help you select bulbs that perform well with Lutron dimmers. To use the tool please visit lutron.com/ledfinder.

If you have questions or concerns, please reach out to our Customer Satisfaction team at customersatisfaction@lutron.com, or call us 1-844-LUTRON1. We're here 24/7, so please call us any time! lutron

Excellent product. Used for dimming the recessed kitchen light and for the light over the sink (off or on). Looks great, as it matched the other black light switches in kitchen.

It doesn't Work with LED Lights!
Customer's were asking for this switch to work with LED bulbs in 2016. Five years later, it still doesn't work with LED bulbs. My light fixture is clear glass and requires an Edison type bulb to look nice. The highest watt Edison incandescent that I've found is 60 watts, which is the maximum for my light fixture, and the minimum wattage for this switch (according to my electrician). However, a 60 watt Edison bulb produces about as much light as a candle. The little night light in my bathroom produces more light than my light fixture. Since I need to run both the light and an exhaust fan - which is not recommended with the dual dimmer switches (I've been told it can burn out the fan motor) - I will need to install 2 separate switches. One for the fan and and a separate one for the light. ARGH!

    I know this device is suggested for use with a fan and light combo. But I had a unique situation, in a log home, in a single gang box, they needed dimmer for the dining table, and a switch for the back porch light. No room to add a box without major log hacking, and the owner did not want log hacking. Many many dual devices dual switches, dual dimmers, but this was the only device I found to fit the bill, with a switch and a dimmer. This was perfect, they are so pleased, and everyone is happy. I did like the screw connections, one hot supply, one screw for each control. My opinion, so much cleaner than pigtails. Yay Lutron!!

    Love this...did exactly what we wanted and this was the only one we could find that could. We installed upside down so we could have the dimmered one on the bottom and the on / off on top.

    A switch this costly really should allow standalone LED bulbs to be dimmed when used in conjunction with a Hunter fan.

    We're sorry to hear about your experience. To confirm you're using the proper product, the MALFQ (models vary) is rated only for incandescent and halogen bulbs, so performance issues can occur when using LEDs. We do, however, offer an LED version of this product, model # MACL-LFQ-XX (xx indicates color choice), which is designed specifically to control dimmable LEDs.

    We also suggest making sure your dimmable LED has been tested and approved by Lutron. We have a mobile-friendly web tool to help you select bulbs that perform well with Lutron dimmers. To use the tool please visit lutron.com/ledfinder.

    If you have questions or concerns, please reach out to our Customer Satisfaction team at customersatisfaction@lutron.com, or call us 1-844-LUTRON1. We're here 24/7, so please call us any time!

    Switch is perfect for ceiling fan with dimmer for light. Push button design with gradual on off for light is really nice. Also has tiny lights alongside switchs that indicate switch is on and dimmer level.

    Works as advertised. Nice dimming range. Looks sharp. Powers upper and under cabinet Juno halogen lights. So much more pleasant than LED.

    This switch did everything i expected. The dimmer is limited to incandescent bulbs not LEDs. It would be nice if they had one just like this that worked with LED bulbs.

    This is a really cool little switch. Includes a non-dimming switch for my outside light and a dimmer for my basement cans, and fits nicely in an older receptacle box with no modifications. Only downside is it does NOT work with LED bulbs. But I'm good with that.
