Leviton DW15A-1BW Decora Smart Wi-Fi Plug-in Outlet, Works with Amazon Alexa, No Hub Required

I had one fail, but they replaced it promptly after I emailed them my problem and returned the failed unit.

The product functions as advertised and works well with my echo show. It takes some electrical knowledge to install so if you don’t feel comfortable installing them, call an electrican.

works great turning on christmas tree.

I purchased the Leviton DW15A-18W plug in module along with a DW6HD-1BZ Wall Dimmer module, which I will review separately. I am a big fan of the Leviton product line, almost every switch in my home is a Leviton switch so I was excited to find these little modules that can be controlled by my Alexa unit. I have purchased a number of other similar controlled devices for my home but this little beauty was super easy to get online and working. I was up and running and integrated with my Amazon Echo in minutes. The real difference maker with this device is that it does not require a centralized hub like so many others, which will add price and complexity to your smart home design. The DW15A-18W runs on my existing Wifi as opposed to using it own network like so many other similar products. You can also control all the device from a separate app the Leviton provides for free. Following the provided instructions in the box I was able to quickly get the module on my Wireless network and after installing a simple skill for the Amazon Echo I was able to control it via voice command. I particularly enjoy the portability of the module as I am able to move it around my house quickly and easily for whatever purpose I need at the time. I can’t recommend this item enough if you plan building your own smart home network of devices.

Unlike the 11 wireless switch products I bought from Leviton that have been flawless, these outlet control items are a lot less reliable. Once in a while, the app shows a red wireless sign indicating the device is not reachable. I tried dealing with customer support to fix the problem and/or get an RMA, and they emailed with me back and forth for a while but they eventually went quiet/non-responsive despite a number of attempts from me to bring a resolution to conclusion. Thats too bad because their switch products are great. Disappointing customer service.

Works well.

This works simply when you plug it in. I highly recommend this item.

Im curious about creating a smart home, so decided to try this wifi plug. Very easy to set up using the My Leviton app supplied by the company, Leviton - its wizard-like, steps you through connecting to home wifi. Its simple to use. I just have one thing plugged in - a Christmas tree, which is fun to turn off and on through the app instead of walking over and plugging it in and out. I connected to my Echo Dot by enabling the My Leviton skill. Voice control makes it even easier and entertaining - Alexa, turn on the tree. The My Leviton app has a lot of capabilities, especially if you have multiple plugs or other Leviton smart products. You can create activities, which enable you to group commands to be run at the same time. Another nice feature, which I plan to use even with the one plug, is schedules. Thisll come in handy to turn a light on and off at various times of day or night. Now that Ive toe-dipped, Im going to consider other products to smarten the home. It started out as a novelty, but Im finding it pretty useful.

Had another model before (another company) and I was having problems all the time. Not a single problem since I got this model, many months ago.

Quick ship. Product works great, easy set-up.....
