FRANKEVER Mini Smart Plug,WiFi Outlet Works with Alexa Google Assistant, No Hub Required, ETL and FCC Listed Only 2.4GHz WiFi Enabled Remote Control WiFi Smart Socket

Device work as advertise. It does work with Google Mini and Alexa. To add to google mini look under Smart Life devices. Only reason I give this a 4 star is because due to its bulky design you can only fit one of these in dual outlet sockets.

Excellent plugs for the money that do monitoring and have 15amp capabilities. Easy to setup as a group or individually Alexa. My recommendation for setup is to set them up close to you router and then move them to where you want to.use them. Please down load the manual and read some of the comments to lower gotcha factor before you start.

They are working well but I dont love the the multiple steps and lack of documentation with these. Tuya smat is alsk very clunky to work with. Several more steps to get these controlled with google and echo

Follow the instructions and setup is a breeze. I set up this plug to operate decorative lights that hang high in our outdoor entertaining area. With this product, there is no ugly extension cord, or climbing on a ladder to plug them in... All I have to do to operate the lights is say, Alexa, turn on/off the outside lights. And its done!

This is great good quality and synced right up only grip is me not thinking and getting the round one that blocked the other outlet

Bought this so we can turn a space heater on from bed when it’s cold without having to turn on the house furnace so we can just warm up the bathroom when we shower we love it it’s so convenient

Energy monitoring is a welcome feature that I wish more smart outlets would include as a default. Apparently my desktop computer setup uses 11 watts while idle even with everything turned off. Cant wait to see how much energy I can save with my entertainment setup too. EZ Mode failed after several attempts, AP Mode worked but was a bit of a struggle. AP Mode creates its own wifi hotspot that your phone is supposed to connect to and pass along the 2.4 Ghz network details that way. But with most Android phones if a Wifi connection doesnt have internet, like the outlets hotspot it will drop the connection and reconnect to your default wifi so in order to complete the process you need to have your phone forget your normal local wifi connections for the duration of the setup. After all that it works very well with the associated app and integrates perfectly with Google Home.

I don’t normally leave bad reviews, I’m normally pretty lenient and accepting of flaws with items I purchase, I’m not technologically challenged nor do I give up without trying to troubleshoot why something isn’t working. I bought one singular outlet for a very simple task. I wanted to schedule a light to turn on for 12 hours a day. That’s it. Nothing fancy, no sunrise or sunset, no proximity if this then that settings. Just a simple schedule. I have repaired and reset the plug. I’ve tried (many many many times) to update it to no avail, it doesn’t struggle. It just doesn’t do ANYTHING. Half of the time to app doesn’t even recognize it as being on the network in spite of being within 15 feet of a router. The schedule function in the app? Half the time doesn’t even show my schedule I’ve repeatedly set up. Tried setting up a scene and using if 8am turn on and if 8pm turn off. None of it works. Not a single feature. What I’m left with is a bulky plug that I can toggle on and off when and only if I’m home. Which is absolutely useless. I already can do that. It’s called a light switch. I’m either going to return this and buy the tp-link variety that seems to be widely accepted as the gold standard, or I’ll simply throw this in the garbage because that’s where it belongs. Or I might just get a mechanical timer, like I have in the past. You know what doesn’t fail to do what I want? A mechanical timer. Silly me for thinking technology had come far enough to just work. If 0 stars were an option I’d give this 0 stars.

This plus is great for the price. Love how easy the setup is also user friendly.

The executive overview: DO like: Theyre really cheap and they work great after theyre set up. DONT like: The setup process is convoluted. Also you have to give an email address during setup. The documentation that is included with the device is outdated and shows an old version of the Google Home app. The app has had significant changes since the documentation was made so the UI path is different. If you have a mixed mode wifi access point (2.4GHz and 5GHz at the same time with the same SSID) or your AP is only 5GHz, youll need to purchase and set up a seperate wifi access point for these plugs. Also I dont know what the other reviewers are talking about when they mention charging their phones via these plugs because they do not have USB ports. I suspect that the merchant ninja swapped the product and description on this product listing to a newer model without the charging port.
