CMARS Smart Plug, ZigBee Switch Mini Smart Outlet Works with ST, Alexa, Echo (4th gen) Echo Plus (2nd) Google Home, Works as a Range Extender, Hub Required （2 Pack）

All in all, not a bad product. Integration with Smart things goes well once you figure out what to call it (some instructions included with the device would have helped, but easy to Google). Once installed, seems to be solid. My only gripe is that the LED on the side is obnoxiously bright. Makes it impossible to use in a bedroom or dark environment without tape. Would have been a better product with no LED at all.

I’m a HomeSeer user and these modules are extremely dependent and well made. I replaced my Insteon modules with these and what a difference! No signal loss in my 3500 sq. ft. home. The Insteon modules became brittle over time and the cover easy separated from the backplate leaving the backplate still in the ac socket. Time will tell how these modules stand up, but I’m very impressed so far. Highly recommend!

Because this is a zigbee smart switch, it is very easy to add to a smartthings hub without any additional app beyond the Smartthings app. It is the easiest Ive found. Just plug it in, open up the smartthings app, and scan for new devices. Much better than wifi plugs.

A reliable well made product in a great form factor. Ive been using these for almost a year now with no issues whatsoever. Very easy to setup.

I bought a slew of these for some home automation tasks about 9 months ago, and they are starting to die off, one by one, a few days in between. They start to reset once every 10 minutes to a few hours, then they just go dead. Bummer.

I run OpenHAB on a Raspbery PI 3, with a HUSBZB-1 USB Hub as controller. I could connect the plugs with no issue.

April 2021 - When I received the plugs, they were a different brand, and didnt work with SmartThings. Oddly, they came with a card that referenced to reach out to CMARS for support, but CMARS confirmed these were NOT their plugs. ---- May 2021 - CMARS offered to replace the fake plugs (branded Gosund) with the correct CMARS plugs, and apologized for the inconvenience (which was Amazons fault as the fulfiller, not CMARS). Well, the new plugs came, and they work a treat. Right out of the box, theyre as simple to set up with SmartThings as I could hope for. 30-seconds from out of the box, to controlling my lamp with ST. Definitely recommend buying from CMARS if you want good service.

Works great; No Issues; Seems to be the best price for Zigbee capable plug.

Not too expensive. I assume they have to pay licensing fees for Zigbee use. But I chose these over plain WiFi types because I prefer general capability to use with things like now defunct Iris or deserving to be defunct SmartThings etc. hubs. These devices paired to the SmartThings hub in seconds while Samsung’s own devices are a nightmare to pair. They instantly were noticed by Alexa and work great daily. Longevity I cannot comment on at present. But I’m ordering the 4-pack of these now.

I bought two boxes of these plugs to use with a Philips Hue hub, and they work perfectly. Theyre easy to set up through the hue app.
