I've read old posts of people not being able to initialise fibaro button

This one

Was anyone able to get it working? or its flakey?

Any other zwave button alternatives that work well with HE?

Thanks all!

There is zigbee chinese button

would this work well with HE? mixing zigbee with zwave shouldn't cause problems?

I have two and they work great. I have the z-wave version. One in each bathroom that I use as an emergency button in case someone falls or needs help. My grandkids love to push them when they can find an excuse to do so. That big red button is just too much of a temptation I guess.

How did you pair it? No one seems to be able to get them to pair

Just the usual way that you pair any other Z-Wave device. I did try it near the hub but I don't remember any particular problems pairing it.
