Are Quinetic still regarded as the best kinetic switches?

Hi Folks.Have always appreciated kinetic switches for their "get out of jail"value in problematic situations.They are a gift .However my preferred approach is to always use traditional hardwiring where possible.I am now for the first time obliged to carry out a rewire where all light switching will be wireless.
I want to know what are currently regarded as the best brands?
The 3 that have caught my eye are ..
1) Quinetuc
2) Ener-j
3)Candeo.

These 3 also do a grid switch which blends in nicely with tradional wall switches
 
No idea on the others but all I can say is that I've got one working as a manual PIR override to a floodlight in the yard, mounted in my kitchen maybe 100m away and it's worked seamlessly for four years and not skipped a beat.
 
Yes Quinetic every time for me! Their range and flexibility is superb as is the amount of products they now do. The grid switches are spot on, love the wi-fi control although the app could be better!

I did a huge kitchen, dining, sitting room and snug a couple of weeks ago, all lighting including the external ones I did with Quinetic, all dimmable wi-fi & switch controlled.
The setting it all up took a bit of work but I managed to get 9 controllers in an adaptable box above the kitchen.
When it was all up and running it was worth the effort!

The Ener-j kit is ok, but not as big array of products, and just not quite as quality.

Not fitted the Candeo so can't comment.

Hi. It does
Make me wonder if you were doing al this work why would you not use traditional switching? Do they need to be able to dim there kitchen lights on the app while sitting in the kitchen? Strange application.
I hope that adaptable box was easily accessible
