REVIEW SUMMARY
Build quality feels good, but, INITIALLY it did not work with either of my LED lamps. However just before posting my initially prepared review, I thought the fault I was experiencing may be due to me using an inappropriate light bulb. This suspicion was confirmed by the dimmable controller working perfectly after I change the light bulb I was using in the lamp.
To be fair, my final rating is based only on using the dimmer controller with the light bulb sold as "Dimmable" and the dimmer controller's build quality.

DETAILED REVIEW
I have two LED lamps and will describe how they each functioned separately.
LAMP INITIALLY FITTED WITH, STANDARD LED LIGHT BULB
- For dial positions within the, "LIGHT FLICKERS ZONE", (see images 1 & 2), using the standard LED light bulb (see images 3.1, 3.2, 3.3), the light flickered at a visibly high frequency, (see first part of video).
- For ALL dial positions BELOW the, "LIGHT FLICKERS ZONE", the flickering stopped BUT the brightness was fix dim, as shown in image 5 and NOT of variable brightness.
- For ALL dial positions ABOVE the, "LIGHT FLICKERS ZONE", the flickering stopped BUT the brightness was fix bright, as shown in image 6 and NOT of variable brightness
NOTE - My camera's exposure setting was locked the same, between images 5 and 6.
Same LAMP THEN FITTED WITH A, DIMAMABLE LED LIGHT BULB (sold as "Dimmable bulb" - see images 9.1, 9.2, 9.3)
- NOW WORKS PERFECTLY!
From DIMMEST most dimmable position, (dial turned to far left), where the light bulb was completely off,
to the BRIGHTEST position, (dial turned to the far right), where the light bulb was at it's brightest,
the increase in brightness was smooth and gradual as should be expected, with NO flickering and NO pulsating.
So, one more time, for the record, with the correct light bulb, (sold as, "Dimmable bulb" - see images 9.1 and 9.2, 9.3), the dimmer controller worked perfectly.
I have no video of the smooth increase in lighting described here, as I did not have the time to take another video, and then blend it into the already created video, to create a single video, (video upload limit here is one video per review);
this section of testing actually occurred last, as an afterthought, just before posting what I now know would have been my initially more limited and not fairly representative review, lacking all relevant facts needed for a fair review.

WITH FLAT LED LAMP (Tomshine Led Floor Lamp Remote & Touching Control /gp/product/B082LRF5WP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1 )
- For dial positions within the, "PULSATION ZONE", (see image 7), when using the flat LED lamp light, (see flat LED lamp head in images 8.1, 8.2, 8.3), the light pulsated slowly, (see the second part of video).
