SwitchBot Curtain Rod 2

It was easy to installation and calibrate the SwitchBot Curtain Rod 2 with the App. I'm not using the App, instead I integrated the SwitchBot with Home Assistant using ESPHome integration and Bluetooth proxy (no need in SwitchBot account or wifi hub). It works reliably twice a day, closing on dusk and opening on sunrise. I'm planning to add more automation based on the Sun position. The battery drops 1% every 3-4 days (running on 1 meter rod in performance mode). The bots are fairly quiet. So far the SwitchBot Curtain Rod 2 meets my expectation on functionality, I hope it won't disappoint on reliability and quality for the long run. BTW, the customer service is awesome.

Great product. Fast product

A lot of these reviews are based on the old version, which lacked several important features that are on the new version. I bought 2 of the new version and I am quite happy with the purchase. It is rechargeable, has light level detection, and is pretty well-made. I tried to find other ones on Amazon and this was the most reliable curtain opener.

This product lacks Alexa/Google Home integration, but if you are just having it open and close by time/level of light, then the app is sufficient. If you want voice control, you will need a hub.

Overall, I am happy with the purchase. It works well for me and also the customer service is great.

I LOVE this product! I mounted my Thunderbolt hub under my desk and had to crawl under the desk each morning to boot up my system. I didn't even know something like this existed, but just started looking for an automatic button pusher and this came up. I was also happy to see that this could be paired with a remote/ switch so that I didn't have to bring my phone into the office every morning. This product works exactly as described. It was a little more than I expected to pay, but the coupon helped. Easy to mount and does exactly what I wanted. I don't have it integrated with Alexa, so I cannot speak to that. However, it worked really well with my cell phone. The app was easy to install and I had it mounted and working within 5 minutes.

It was easy to set up and works perfectly. My espresso machine is hot and ready when I wake up!

Works perfectly.
It's very easy to set up, no cables, no tools, just a phone and wifi signal.

The possibilities are endless with this lil robot. I can now automate something as simple as opening my garage door simply by just asking Alexa. Thank You SwitchBot for this great product.
