If you are the type that feels home automation is acceptable to include a 3rd party such as Google Assistant or Alexa than you probably don't care about any of the underlying how things work or much else this review contains and this product is probably a perfect fit for you.
If you feel home automation devices shouldn't be dependent on a 3rd party outside your home network then stay away from this product! It doesn't work well with Home Assistant and whatever solution one puts together to make it work is a cobbled one at best that usually is unreliable which pretty much burns out its usefulness within days of realizing this.
The security of this device is horrible. Its exposed quiet well out on Github. Just search for unixpickle/cbyge and read up on the reverse engineering commentary on how insecure it is. Some college research classes on how not to make software to support a product can probably make use of this device since its fairly cheap and can probably take a beating and keep on ticking.
I have one of these devices as an experiment. As soon as products that support Matter are available on the market I will be slowly switching away. Until then I'll stick with Z-Wave.
