I purchased two of the curtain rod 2 and mini hub. Absolutely love them. Very easy to set up and fun to use.

I'd been after the Rod2 openers for a while. The combo kit finally enticed me. The mini-hub not only made set up quick and easy but linked the rod kit to Alexa which is brilliant. The kit itself is quick and easy to instal and setting up the app was really fast and simple too. It may seem lazy to have automated curtains but they have added a whole new dimension to home security and comfort. Now I can control the curtains from anywhere in the world to make it appear someone is home. On days where it's sunny I can close the curtains while I'm at work to stop the room getting too hot. I am really pleased I bought this kit, it's affordable, feels well made and customer service is brilliant too with tracking and after sales help.

Very easy to put together and use

I've got an automation now in SmartThings to open the blinds and turn on the coffeemaker (SwitchBot Bot). Pretty sweet! Previously, the curtains were hard to get to (behind furniture) so they stayed closed all the time. It makes the mornings just a little brighter!
Super easy installation, including the solar panels.

This product along with the hub mini, makes automated life so much easier. Curtain opens at dawn and closes at dusk. Need it opened or closed right now? Just use your voice with your favorite automation director. Only thing you need to take care of is an unobstructed rail. Rails that have been slid inside of each other might prove to be too big of an obstacle for the little wheels. It pulling a 4M heavy curtain on a U-rail here. Loving it! Wife is asking for two more.
