Amazon Basics Smart Plug Power Strip, Surge Protector with 3 Individually Controlled Outlets and 2 USB Ports, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, Works with Alexa

This makes turning thing on/off easier when paired with an Alexa device.

Who would have imagined that Id be writing a review about a power strip but my experience with this new strip from Amazon Basics has me all excited. First and foremost, it simply does exactly what you would hope it would: provide control over three independent sockets remotely using Alexa. I plugged it in, skipped reading the instructions, and it showed up immediately on my Alexa app, as three separate plugs. I did the standard Alexa app configuration for smart home devices (really simple, really fast, basically just giving them names and assigning them to a room). Setup took less than five minutes and was simple and intuitive. The strip also includes two USB sockets which is also super-convenient. For example, a wireless charging pad can plug into one and a direct USB-Lightning connector in the other. The Amazon product team deserves a big pat on the back for creating a product that does exactly what you would want it to, and fast and easy. And the price is great, only slightly more than the single plug option. I highly recommend this product. It is exceptionally well designed.

I was not sure if was a single controller and so was pleasantly surprised that it has 3 distinct controller. Plugged it in, Alexa recognized all three and except that I had to crawl under the desk to figure out which circuit was which, a breeze to set up.

Have 2 of these, they do work with Alexa but there are times it just doesnt seem to listen. For the most part though it does the job. USBs do not seem to do fast charging so thats a bit of a disappointment. Every now and then it will say its fast charging the device... But not always.

I couldnt write this review fast enough!! This power strip ended all my frustrations and woes of buying smart plugs (of the same brand) that sometimes will and other times wont, connect to my wifi! This device was immediately recognized by Alexa the minute I plugged it in. Set up is quick and easy. The power cord is very thick and sturdy and a good length as well. Each plug (3 total) operates individually so you can assign different names to each one, inside the app, to correlate with whatever device you plug in. Im using it for my Christmas lights. So, I assigned the 3 plugs to a group, set a routine, and all lights turn on and off at the times I set. Definitely worth buying for the quality, functionality, and price!!

Muy bueno

Was so nice to just plug this in and have it detected! Works great with my echo.

I wish there was more outlets. The 3 plugs work with Alexa but the USB outlets doesnt. So its only 3 smart plugs.

I’ve only had it a few weeks but it was really easy to set up with Alexa. Each plug can be controlled independently. The 2USB ports are a bonus.

Setup was super easy, plugged in, powered on then adjusted the names for each outlet in the Alexa app. Now I can use Alexa to power those on and off by voice command. Works perfectly, totally worth it!
