Kasa Smart Plug HS103P2, Smart Home Wi-Fi Outlet Works with Alexa, Echo, Google Home & IFTTT, No Hub Required, Remote Control,15 Amp,UL Certified, 2-Pack White

The lights in my bedroom turn on at a set time a few minutes before my alarm. One voice line turns them off when I go to bed. Getting a drink of water at 2am? One voice line will turn the light on in the hallway. These things are affordable and the set-up takes like five minutes. Everything I asked for with zero problems.

I used WeMo smartplugs originally and those would disconnect from the network once in awhile and it was a pain to get them reconnected. Got tired of that happening so I bought some of these Kasa smartplugs hoping to get away from the WeMo ones. Success! No more disconnecting and these Kasa work better and faster than the WeMo. The app also boots up much quicker to where my plugs are quickly available. Id rate the WeMo at a 6 out of 10 These Kasa I would rate at a 10 out of 10. Ive been using the Kasa for awhile...since March of this year...and have yet to have any kind of problem with them. If I do Ill edit this review

I did not like that I needed to get the Kasa App, you have to get the Kasa app then it syncs to Alexa app. If I knew this I would have purchased Paid more for the actual Alexa Plug. It works fine.

Ive purchased 6 of these so far to control lamps. They were so easy to set up and connect with Google home. They have worked great!

These worked fine and were easy to set up. You have to set them up in the Kasa app and then link them through the Alexa app. They worked fine with Alexa voice commands, but do do not appear in the Alexa app and therefore you can’t create multiple routines with them. They will only work one at a time which is fine for most, but I need them to turn off my lamps at the same time. I had to return them.

Feels like buying a disposable electronic device. Its impossible to reset when you move. Instructions say you have to rename the new wifi & password to the same as the old network. Still doesnt work. Otherwise, great device while it lasted. Easy to control through the app, love the sunrise-sunset setting, and no need for an alexa/siri hub.

Ive been holding out on buying smartplugs due to their need to be on a 2.4Ghz network. I had no desire in segmenting my mesh network into 2 bands. I prefer to roam my property with my cellphone/laptop and let it correctly choose the band that is needed for optimal connectivity. Before purchasing, I noticed reviews stating that these plugs worked seamlessly with Orbi mesh products. I bought a 3 pack of these plugs and had all three connected and working within 15 minutes or less. Easy peasy! That is what I want in home automation. I would buy more of the TP/Kasa line of products based on this initial experience.

I have a 1/2 dozen of these. They are great.
