Kasa Smart Plug Power Strip KP303, Surge Protector with 3 Individually Controlled Smart Outlets and 2 USB Ports, Works with Alexa & Google Home, No Hub Required , White

I only use KASA smart plugs because they are reliable, affordable, and setup is very easy. Our power company went to time-of-day metering so I installed this power strip where I have two small freezers and a water cooler dispenser. The power strip turns them off between 3 pm and 7 pm on weekdays to keep them from running during peak hours. I also installed KASA smart plugs on my window air conditioners to shut them off during peak hours. This has resulted in me saving money and the plugs paying for themselves.

It was fine for a few weeks before power / wifi went out. Now it disconnects frequently. Have power cycled everything and its well within wifi range. Hopefully it decides to work consistently again.

Best for using multiple smart devices and controlling it with one switch. Works perfectly but makes a loud click sound every time you turn a device on or off.

Kasa is a brand I’ve come to trust. They are easy to set up with the app, they work well with my network, and they last. The strip with individual smart plugs is brilliant for a small space, like behind the tv. A good value, I think.

I bought this and tried it out and worked great but in the end didnt actually need it. It has app access and you can turn on and off each plug. Love that you dont need a hub to get this working adding more expense to it.

Well, its sleek looking. Handsome even. I saw this power strip and thought to myself well thats a good lookin power strip right there. That gets a solid 1 star..aside from the fact that Amazon doesnt allow zero. Im sure if i plugged things into it, it might work, but i could have bought 2x excellent APC dumb strips for the price. Ive got a google Wifi setup at home. First generation. NLS-1304-25. If you are familiar with mesh routers, aside from the netgear orbi, most of them have both 2.4 and 5 ghz broadcasted under the same SSID. Now most smart home devices, while all 2.4 ghz devices, can be classified per a google wifi setup as 1. Works out of the box 2. Works with a bit of gymnastics 3. Does not work / cant even get past setup Unlike the star rating, this fall under #3. ive got 4 Kasa plugs to my name and one other setup for another person. I could say I was a fan. Not my first time setting up a plug/plug like device in the TP link app. I had just failed attempt 21 with a TP link support person after failing setup 20 times myself. Not an exaggeration. i like even numbers. As part of the self troubleshooting process, i have tried the setup with 3 devices (2x Android, 1x ipad). Between each setup I did a reset by holding down one of the buttons on the switch to reset it back to a green/orange color and plugged/unplugged . Within said attempts, Ive tried things like only using an android device that works on the 2.4 ghz frequency (Android 8.1, some cheap LG), walking far away from my wifi to force a 2.4 ghz connection with my other android (pixel 3), and using the ipad. I can get as far as freezing on the attempting to connect the strip to the network or to the cannot connect to wifi screen, but no further. Rounding out hour 3.5 with support. Being escalated now to their senior engineer. Come on TP link. Ive already been burned by your Archer C8 router...gave TP link a chance with single plugs and was impressed..now this. Lets turn this review into 3 or 4 stars. EDIT: Follow the definition of insanity. Keep trying for hours. Do the same thing and eventually it will work. Actual troubleshooting got me nowhere. TP link support is useless. They will give you troubleshooting steps that you JUST DID and JUST TOLD them you did. This is staying at 1 star. Terrible product. Worse support. Powering on / item devices became hit or miss. Id hear the click but nothing. Id have to physically hit the switch button then hit it again for it to work. Stay away from this product. Get their single plugs if you are going to get their smart plug

Works good

I like this product. I would love it if all the features worked. I have scheduled several timers for on and off at specific times and they dont work at all. The only scheduled timer that I have found that works is the sunset timer. I have a lamp plugged in and it automatically turns my light on at sunset. I love that--I never have to walk into a dark house. I like being able to turn the light on and off from a different room, as I can automatically turn the plugged in device on/off using the app. I was thinking of buying another one to turn my TV off and on at a scheduled time but I wont since the schedule function isnt working.

We have several of these and love how we can have several things, like our chargers, and be able to turn them on and off. Great with Alexa.

So when I first got this I thought it would be super basic and cheap. To my surprise TP link has actually taken the time to design this. From two USB ports on the strip and three standard three prong plugs this is a Amazing device to add to any smart home intergration. Easy app setup of the device only took 3 minutes to set up from start to end, each plug is able to be renamed and the Google home app with identify those names.
