The Zooz On/Off Switch ZEN71 is one of the most reliable and well-built Z-Wave switches available today, making it an easy recommendation for most home and rental-property automation setups. Zooz consistently delivers high-quality hardware, and the ZEN71 is no exception: it feels solid, responds quickly, and works smoothly in both single-pole and 3-way configurations (even when paired with a standard mechanical switch). Over long-term testing, it has proven to be extremely durable and dependable, with fast communication and excellent compatibility across major Z-Wave hubs. While we have occasionally encountered situations where the device needed to be power-cycled, these instances have been rare enough that they don’t detract from our overall confidence in the switch. For anyone looking to standardize on Z-Wave lighting control, the ZEN71 remains one of the best and most cost-effective options available.
