> 3 daySmart sockets are known to burn out the relay contacts over time. Less expensive units are more prone to this. We will see how long these hold up.

> 3 dayWe had smart plugs earlier and the functionality was amazing nothing to complain. This new buy was the same. Timers work perfectly. This was bought mainly for Christmas lights and they were just functioning perfectly. Did use all, just 2 did it for me and they were perfect.

> 3 dayGot this for my Juggernog fridge to turn it on and off ever few hours. I only wish the apps had simpler timers such as turn on for x hours and off for x hours.

Greater than one weekEasy to install. You need to make sure you have access to your 2.4GHz wifi network. Once you do that the setup is through your phone (iphone in my case) where you find the device using their app over bluetooth and then it gets setup as a wifi device. You can then ask Alexa to search for devices. The only thing I will say is make sure you give the sockets sensible names when you set them up as this is how Alexa identifies them. Eg call the TV one “TV”, etc. They have the ability to add timers too so that works well for me as I have things set up on timers.

> 3 dayThese are great and easy to setup/use. I have a pair of bug zappers and hooked them up in the bedroom and kitchen. Now when I see a bug buzzing around I just tell Alexa to turn on my bug zappers Alexa shields up! and zap! you plug them in, load their app, and its pretty straightforward from there. You hold the button down for 5 or 7 seconds to reset until it blinks then turn on your phone blue tooth for the app to detect and configure for your wifi network. Then link to Alexa and setup your routines. Note Amazon sent me a pack of used ones but since I could reset them and they seem to be working fine these past weeks that I did not knock any stars off as its Amazon and not the manufacturers fault, plus I hate wasting working products just because they are used but still look new (though it wouldnt hurt for amazon to knock a few dollars off). I do recommend this product if you are looking to control power for outlet devices that remain on.

> 3 dayIn terms of features these are great and setup was not difficult. My complaint is that I have had two (of 4) fail within four years. Perhaps Im asking too much but this was under light loads and I dont think the short lifespan is acceptable.

> 3 dayThe instructions do not clearly state what the steps are and in what order. The screen shots do not match what I see on my phone. Do you download the application first? You need to ensure you have Alexa, or Echo application on your phone along with the Smart Life application. Wanted to run it simply from my Alexa but that didnt seem to be possible without running through the Alexa Application. There is discussion about Quick Mode or AP mode configuration. No explanation of what AP mode is or why you might choose it. They suggest Quick Mode but dont explain why. My phone does not have a QR code reader. It appears that might be the easiest way however, I dont have that. You will need to remember your wifi network name (easy) and password. (Not as easy). Our devices all automatically log on to the home wifi network. We havent entered a password for 2 years. We have unfortunately forgotten the password. That means resetting it mid stream. Not fun. It doesnt tell you to plug in the smart plug before starting. Maybe obvious but it doesnt tell you that. Should you plug in the appliance with the plug? Tells you to rename your device, but doesnt show you screen shots for that. Smart Plug was not in the device list to choose from on the application. Instead it showed pictures of the same electrical plug with 3 options. What option should you choose? Been frustrating. I am not technically advanced, but I also am not completely inept. This product and the incomplete instructions have made me feel inept. Some may get this right away. But I havent, and I now have 4 plugs that are expensive and not really useful to me. I would pass to a different brand in hopes of better instructions. I chose because I wanted to run from my Alexa in the house. Dont want to run it from a phone app because what does everyone else do when I am not at the house? Should be run from the Alexa device. Not the Alexa app.
