Wifi Smart Plug Set of 2 Mini Smart Outlet Compatible with Alexa Remote Control By Smart Phone from Anywhere Anytime (2 Packs)

Work well. Easy to set up. Downside is the shape. Hard to fit 2 cords into 1 wall outlet. Smaller Square shape work better.

They work very well! The setup is very easy but I had to change my router Wi-Fi configuration so the plugs could be detected by the app. Once theyre plugged, you can turn them on/off by pressing a button on the plugs themselves, by tapping a button on the app (even when youre not in the same Wi-Fi as the plugs) or by talking to your Google Home. I just wish they were a little smaller :)

Summary Pros: -Google Home compatible after downloading the SmartLife app and linking to your assistance -No need for additional steps/requests (turn on x outlet works immediately) -quality outlets at a competitive price -No lag in turning on (though my Home is near the outlets so perhaps distance may affect this in further rooms) Cons: -only one Smart plug will fit in a traditional 2 outlet setup (however you CAN stilluse the 2nd outlet with a traditional plug) Full review: Being brand new to home assistants (specifically Google Home) I purchased this Smart Plug set of 2 as a trial based on the price. I do not have a hub and have heard mixed reviews of hubless items- specifically that they are not as easy to direct and require an additional request. This turned out to not be the case and Im definitely ordering more! First: packaging is simple yet effective. Each comes in its own box with instructions, paired in a little bag. Setup was simple. I decided to test one on my fish tank light. Once plugged in it immediately entered setup mode (instructions for reset to use elsewhere are of course provided) then I downloaded the SmartLife app through Google Home. After a simple click to add a new device it located the outlet and I was able to name it. This was the big test. I had heard non-hub devices require you to ask Google to access the app before requesting to turn on the device but this was not necessary. You simply ask to turn on x light and immediately it does so. Im very pleased at this product and highly recommend it! Just keep in mind that you can only use one smart plug in an outlet as the diameter is too large to fit two (however this DOES NOT block you from being able to use the other outlet with a traditional plug). Smart home, on a budget!

Waited to hook up all four and watch for a few days and so, great! App for IOS is easy as can be. I need to experiment and see what happens in a power loss before we go away. A question was emailed me by Amazon before these arrived. CAN THEY FIT WITH ANOTHER PLUG? I ordered these because they appeared to allow room for the other outlet. This turned out to be true, only a larger head plug like the angled ones on some surge protectors do not allow both to fit. Anyway, Ill update this if plugs fail but so far they look like an excellent investment. Dont try to read the skimpy instructions, just scan the code with the phones you want to program and its pretty intuitive (for iPhone, at least) from there. the program looks like it can consolidate smart feature programming and makes it easy to review current schedules by day of week.

Love these little guys. I bought 4 and just order 6 more. They are extremely easy to program and set up. I am controlling them through Alexa and they work great. Im going to use one to control all the Christmas lights my wife is going to make me hang this weekend.... :-)

Works pretty food but sometimes you have to readd it to your phone cause it looses connection to the app

Just received. Love these and easy to set up. I could NOT make it work with Wink ( 1st generation ). If you read the little instruction it comes with its easy. Works great with Alexa Dot once you program it to through the Alexa App or works with its own app, Smart Life. They are easily programmable or you can do it manually from its app.

Set up was very simple. -1star for requiring you to set up an additional app. -1 star for not allowing you to utilize the switch as well. I wanted to use this for our bedroom lights (lamps) which plug in to an outlet controlled by a switch. I understand that the unit obviously couldnt work if the switch is off, but Id like to be able to come into the room and flip the switch to turn them on. Instead when you flip the switch the lights stay off, then you have to wait about 10 seconds and ask Alexa to turn on the lights. Kind of obnoxious. I wanted to be able to flip them on with the switch, then after rading in bed or something be able to turn them off via voice control. The base setting on this outlet when it receives power is off, whereas if it were on or setting adjustable this unit would be great.

These units are fine so long as you have uninterrupted power. But when the power goes off and on again, these units have to be manually reset. The problem seems to be that if the WiFi router isnt up and running when these units are powered on, they will simply hang until you manually reset them ... sort of defeats the purpose of a smart home when the devices are so idiotic.

We love these! All I️ wanted was for all of my Christmas lights to turn on at the same time and this is It. We got them in the mail, my husband plugged them in a set up a “network” for all Christmas lights and viola! No worries about not being home. Also, I️ can turn them on early from my phone!!!!
