What can I say, it does the job. The fins,which are open to the air, should dissapate the heat quite well.

I own 4 of these dimmers in both black and white. Here's what I like about them:
1) Great sensitivity in the low light range. I can dim lamp bulbs so low that I can read the writing on them, then go even lower so that it's almost impossible to see anything in the room other than a faint glowing from the bulb. This is nice for the times when we're staying up with the baby and only want the least amount of light necessary to avoid bumping into objects after our eyes have adjusted to the darkness.
2) No noise. We have one of these on a bedside table, and it doesn't vibrate or make any other annoying noises.
3) Soft green LED when the switch is off. The LED makes it easier to find the switch, but the green color is dim enough to be discrete and is a pleasing color (at least to me). When the switch turns on, the green LED goes off.
4) Various mounting options. There is a recessed slot on the back of the switch into which a screw's head can slide for wall mounting. It comes with removable rubber feet to keep it from sliding off a table top. With the feet removed, the back side is smooth, so I glued one to the underside of a bedside table's overhang for a discrete yet convenient location.
I compared this table top dimmer to the one made by Lutron, and I'm happy I chose the Leviton instead. Apparently the Lutron doesn't have as much sensitivity in the low range and it has a red LED that I like less than green.
I bought mine from big box stores since the were significantly cheaper than the Amazon.com prices.

The Leviton TBI03-1LE Full Range Digital Incandescent Tabletop Dimmer offers control of a lamp with no need to change a switch. Simply plug the lamp into the Tabletop Dimmer then plug the tabletop dimmer into an outlet. The dimmer control can be placed on a tabletop or mounted on a wall (as easy as hanging a picture frame) for full range dimming control of the lamp. A green On/Of indicator light turns on when the dimmer is in the off position so it can be easily located in the dark. Also available in White.
