> 3 dayI bought a couple of these at Costco as a package deal with some extension cords. They worked great (once I got them connected to the WiFi) and I had a need for more, so I bought two more from Amazon. Between the time I bought the new ones and their arrival, the old ones started to malfunction. They would go offline and not turn on/off according to the set schedule. Then one of them completely stopped working. The new ones were just as difficult to get working. One of those stopped working within a week or so of getting them also. When they ARE doing what they’re supposed to do, they do a great job. But for unknown reasons, they disconnect from my wifi and then have to be reinstalled. This happens often and it’s a PITA to get them to connect. It takes a good 5-10 minutes per attempt while sitting outside in the cold, multiple attempts later, they may connect. I would have gone another way if I realized the hassle they were going to be.

> 3 dayVery easy to get set up and working. Use on my covered porch for string lights that had to be plugged in and unplugged each time to use. Plug is not in the easiest place to get to. This made it to where simply giving Alexa a command or opening the app. Also has a button to turn on/off as well.

Greater than one weekThis product supposedly is meant for outdoor use. However, mine didn’t last for more than a few weeks in the back stairs. I bought another one, and it didn’t survive the last rain storm a week ago. It collects water and then shorts out.

Greater than one weekI bought a couple of these because I already have a bunch of Feit floodlight/security cameras installed. I can control every device from one app and also send out commands via Google Home. Im using one of these plugs to run my space heater in my basement office. I can just hit the button in the Feit app or do a Hey Google, turn off office heater. HOWEVER, you MUST have a 2.4GHz-only network set up to use any of the Feit products, and they are very susceptible to interference. I have a tech background and I was able to string together a bunch of old routers and set them to specific frequencies so the Feit devices would get reliable connections throughout my house and my garage, but someone that doesnt have a background in setting up wireless networks is probably going to get frustrated with these devices dropping on and off their network. If you have a mesh network set up in your house, be prepared to create a separate 2.4GHz network with additional routers and range extenders if you want these things to work.

> 3 dayWe have it paired to our custom outdoor cafe lights, we control outdoor lighting straight from the Alexa app. We are fans of FEIT, we have all our home bulbs from Feit “wifi”.

Greater than one weekUsed this for our Christmas display and it works perfectly. Setup was a bit of a challenge and I downloaded the wrong app in the beginning but once connected it worked flawlessly and was easy to set a schedule. Bought two more as a result.

> 3 dayIm a big fan of decorations for Halloween and christmas. For many years I have used the photo sent all timers to try to coordinate when my lights and decorations would turn on. They would never turn on at the same time because the shadows would hit them a few minutes apart. With these, they are extremely easy to use. You connect them to the app on your phone or tablet and set a timer. You can also do multiple timers. They will come on when they are scheduled and turn off when you schedule them. I have used them for the Christmas season and so far I have had no issues whatsoever. They are really simple to set up. In order to set them up though, you have to download the app and then run it really close to the device until it picks it up. Once it has picked it up you set your schedule you plug your items in and you are good to go.
