Very happy thanks.

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Arrived in reasonable time considering world events.
Works perfectly and seems totally reliable so far. The only glitch I had was that I had to flash it twice to use via zigbee2mqtt. The first time it reported success but clearly hadn't flashed correctly - after flashing again everything worked fine.
It's good to have all my zigbee stuff running totally locally with no cloud dependencies.

It doesn't work on QNAP NAS

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Shiping was Ok and it works after flashing because I tested it on my Windows laptop.
However I'd like to use it on my QNAP NAS and Home Assistant over docker and I can't make it work that way.
What I think is than my NAS doesn't have ch340.ko module instaled and that is why it doesn't appear on /dev/tty* when I plug it. And so I can't use it.
I don't recommend it if you want to use it on a QNAP NAS.

Great product and documentation

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Nothing to complain about, just praise. Everything was crystal clear. Documentation flawless. Very impressed! Great product, very happy with the function. I deeply recommend the whole package.

Great product, easy setup and fast shipping!

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

The product arrived in under two weeks, works great, and even got a little electrolama sticker :)
The setup process is really easy, no additional hardware is required, just put the stick in flashing mode and follow the steps on the documentation.
Also, feels great knowing my purchase contributed to the great zigbee2mqtt project.

Christoph | June 8, 2021

all great

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Fast shipping, great documentation for an easy setup (no issues at flashing the device as a newcomer) and great performance!

Dominik | June 8, 2021

Works reliably with Zigbee2Mqtt, nice case.

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Works reliably with Zigbee2Mqtt, and a nice tight-fit case for it. With a previos CC2531 based adapter I had pinging issues in a Zigbee network of about 10-15 devices, now those are gone and communication works reliably. My device's USB A connector had a little dent after the shipping as it seemds to have gotten squeezed in transport - no big deal, but some sturdier packaging my help. Thanks for making this great device!

Ruel | June 8, 2021

Satisfied buyer

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

The device works flawlessly in zigbee2mqtt. No drops in connections whatsoever and I am very satisfied with my purchase.

Carlos | June 8, 2021

Great product, great delivery

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Now I can improve my Home Assistant implementation, thanks for building amazing devices like the ZZH!
I received the order in 5 days (UK to Spain), really amazing considering Brexit and COVID restrictions.

Thanks!!!

Tiago | June 8, 2021

Delivered next day and does the job!

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Got this to replace my old CC2531 which was giving me headaches and it just... works! The instructions on how to flash the proper firmware were clear and easy to follow, the casing is just fine, and it all works just fine. Delivery was next day so... can't get any faster!

Alex | June 7, 2021

Shipping took 1 week. so pretty fast.

Marius | June 6, 2021

Best Ever

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Very fast shipping, easy setup, just a great product and seller. Very happy that I bought this stick.

Andrew | June 6, 2021

Perfectly functional as a ZigBee coordinator

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

It took me about 15 minutes from unpacking, to write the firmware from my Mac, then put the stick into my Home Assistant server and start using it. It's been running well for about a week, without any USB resets like I've seen with other ZigBee solutions on the same hardware. Also, shipping was surprisingly fast, arriving to Canada in about a week.

My only note; unlike my prior stick, which would pair devices but only at short range when plugged directly into the server, with this one I absolutely had to use an extension cable to get anything to pair.

Valtteri | June 4, 2021

Great stick for Zigbee2MQTT

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

I was up and running with Zigbee2MQTT within half an hour controlling my vendor I and X lights and sensors. Documentation on flashing the firmware was clear, range is good and I haven't encountered problems with any devices. There were no shipping issues to EU despite potential Brexit hurdles.

Gilian | June 3, 2021

Fantastic replacement for the CC2531!

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Had a lot of problems with my CC2531, crashing while trying to connect devices etc.
With this stick and the clear documentation, I had my system running in a very short time.

Using different kinds of Zigbee devices on this stick, running zigbee2mqtt with OpenHAB 3.0.

No problems or disconnections anymore since I'm using this stick.

Claus | June 2, 2021

Works.

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

I have a simple zigbee network and it has worked fine so far. It reaches all devices in my household, also in places where the wifi from the router is not visible any more.

Anders | June 2, 2021

Perfect

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

I can only support all the other positive reviews. Quick shipping, clear unambiguous instructions for flashing and an immense upgrade from my CC2531, as the linkquality and reach is extremely good now. I can only recommend warmly..

Martin | May 24, 2021

Great Zigbee controller!

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

There is a clear reason why this Zigbee controller is so recommended. It is easy to use and works well. The instructions on the support website are clear and easy to follow. Keep in mind that just as the description and packaging indicates you have to flash firmware onto it before use. The instructions I followed required Windows.

Ian | May 24, 2021

Neat. Simple. Clear. Works.

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

New to this corner of tech I ordered this based on the reviews and recommentation of the Zigbee2mqtt site.
Delivery was fast, flashing was easy and setting it up with Home Assisatant was a breeze.
Flashed on macos then running on a Synology NAS with HA in a docker container... Loads of potential barriers to a smoothe ride.
All fine and paired with my first device within an hour (and I was taking it slow).

Stepan Anatolevich | May 24, 2021

Everything was ok.

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Delivery in Russia was really fast, after reading the documentation i successfully flashed the stick. It works as expected.

Hever | May 22, 2021

Very recommended

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

I bought zzh! after CC2531 and Slaesh's because zzh out of stock in the first time.

zzh definitely better then Slaesh's and CC2531.

if you are missing, sign up for an email that will return to stock

Nitin | May 21, 2021

Perfect for the Zigbee network

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

I cant compare it with any other RF stick as this is my first one, but it does the job perfectly and til now I haven't had any issues.

Ram | May 21, 2021

Great replacement of proprietary bridges

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Installation was easy, stability is great.
I made a shipping address mistake, which was quickly fixed.

Jakob | May 21, 2021

Works as expected

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

It works just as expected - the setup is a bit tedious, but its well documented and works fine.
If you use a RPI4 or similar, I would highly suggest you buy a usb-extension cable as well. Without it, I had a range of only a few meters - with it, it works even a few rooms over.
Shipping to austria took 2 weeks from order to delivery.

Olivier | May 21, 2021

Perfect

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Works like a charm with a Raspi 4 + Zigbee2Mqtt + Nodered. Flashing the dongle is relatively easy (every step is described in the documentation) and doesn't require extra hardware. Also, the external antenna really helps improving the range.

The item itself is well packaged, quickly shipped and this tiny sticker is like the cherry on top.

10/10 would buy again.

Edwin | May 21, 2021

Works like a charm

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

My objective was to get rid of my xiaomi hub. And that worked like a charm. The stick arrived within two weeks from ordering from UK to NL. And using the electrolama quick start was easy enough to configure for HA use. Was up and running within 15 minutes end-to-end.

Vinod | May 21, 2021

Amazing!

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Replaced my Philips Hue Hub and Samsung Smarthings Hub with this and couldn't be happier. A lot more functionality and reliability at fraction of the cost.

Ryan | May 20, 2021

Perfect

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

I've been using the zzh! for over 2 months now and it has been flawless, just works and hasn't let me down yet.

Peter | May 20, 2021

Great quality, clear instructions, fast shipping.

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

ZZH! Is great in every way:
-well designed and quality product
-instructions for flashing are clear, and it is easy
- working well as coordinator or repeater (I use it in both functions)
- stable device, can handle directly more then 70 end-devices
- the range is enormous, can cover a 2-floors house with concrete floors and 40cm thick walls

Emmanuel | May 15, 2021

Excellent device

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Excellent device, 10x more powerful than basic cc devices, 1 was enough to cover my needs when 3 cc2531 were needed before.
Fast shipping and delivery despite covid issues.

Tristan | May 14, 2021

Great and Highly Recommended

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Worked straight out of the box with zigbee2mqtt, has been incredibly reliable and the purchase process was smooth. Thanks!

Robert | May 14, 2021

Fantastic stick

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Prompt delivery, nicely packaged. The plastic moulding fits perfectly, it comes with an antenna. And best of all the stick works so much better than my previous CC2531. I've got about 40 devices hooked up all working perfectly. I've bought a few of these, one as coordinator and others as routers. Flashing was _fairly_ straight forward (instructions and scripts could be improved but wasn't a huge problem)

Lee | May 14, 2021

The perfect addition to my OpenHAB setup

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Using OpenHAB and Sonoff devices in my home is great, but sometimes you don't want to have to grab a phone and unlock it to turn on lamps that use the plug adaptors, or crawl under furniture to reach the button. This is where the zzh! comes in. Combining it with https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io enables simple use of zigbee buttons to trigger OpenHAB rules for controlling your lights, what's great about this is that the buttons are really low power so can run on a coin cell for years. The range of the zzh! is great too as I've got it running on the ground floor of a 3 story townhouse and the buttons work on the top floor!

If you want to add zigbee to your home automation this is the ideal adaptor for it!

Paul | May 14, 2021

Really reliable device

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Ended up buying 2 of these in the end to replace a CC2531. Since upgrading I've had no device dropping off like they were before. I've got it setup with Zstack3 on Home Assistant using ZHA and the other one as a repeater and works really well. The device is really well made and the case fits it like a glove. Highly recommended.

Colin | May 14, 2021

Great product and an easy (for pandemic times) transaction!

For zzh! CC2652R Multiprotocol RF Stick

Love the range and speed of the zzh! for my zigbee2mqtt-driven Zigbee network :) Super easy to follow the linked directions to install Zigbee coordinator firmware and get myself up and running.

Shipping takes a while, which the seller made very clear up front. Thank you for the honest forewarning in advance so I knew what to expect - but also thanks for shipping my order straightaway after I placed it! The rest of the process is up to the whims of international shipping during a pandemic.
