Kasa Smart Plug by TP-Link, Smart Home Wi-Fi Outlet Works with Alexa, Echo, Google Home & IFTTT, No Hub Required, Remote Control, 15 Amp, UL Certified, 1-Pack(HS103) , WHITE

I have ordered/installed and configured numerous TP Link Kasa Smart Plugs as well as light switches in my home. They have worked better than I could have ever imagined! Easy integration with Amazon Echo/Alexa! I’ve not only set up scheduled routines, but vocal command “scenes” If you’ve ever set up a similar product (ie connect phone to Kasa device via Wifi, enter your Wifi Info/configure/Name and Done!) These are a great value!

I have about 10 smart outlets installed around the house. Half are the earlier versions of these that are big and bulky and cover the entire outlet and the other half are this small, sleek version. I love em. I cant think of a single time Ive had a problem with them. They just work. No resetting necessary. I set schedules for them and/or use them with Alexa and they work perfectly. No need for dang hub either. I get the purpose of the hub to help with network congestion but I havent had any issues with these. Buy them. Do it.

It does exactly what its supposed to do. It plugs in, syncs up, and turns things on...and off... with just the sound of your voice. It took some time activating it. I had to run through the steps twice. I didnt like that I had to download another app (and set up another account), but the app syncs with Alexa easily and it doesnt seem like they send a bunch of emails, so thats good. Good working product for the price. Go get it!

Have no idea what these people who had trouble settling up are talking about. Took me 5 minutes to set up and integrate with Alexa. This is my third one and they work great and are very reliable.

I said many great reviews -- really for the part number HS103P2, this is the single item version. Three nits: The box it came in said to Get the Kasa for Mobile app. Well, at least at the App(le) store this gets you the wrong app -- nothing close to being a TP-Link app. Secondly, I spent a long (pleasant) time chatting with tech support only to find out that it could not be setup on a network with three active channels under one SSID. (Had to shut down all but one access point to get it to setup.) Thirdly, once setup, it will always use that original channel even if there are stronger channels available. (E.g. after setting it up, I turned my other access points on and moved the HS103 across the house. Original channel was weak, HS103 would not use another much stronger channel.) Beware of this issue. Otherwise, a slick piece of hardware.

Im using my Kasa Smart Plug to run my low voltage outdoor landscape lights (transformer in the garage) and one indoor light in my living room. The low voltage transformer has a built-in timer, but its easier to just leave it on and adjust the times via app and my iPhone. Same for the indoor light - it used to be controlled by my home security system, but its easier to adjust via the app.

Its very easy to set up with the Kasa app and works great with Alexa/Echo. Its not expensive and can add a bit of home automation. I bought two of these small plugs for our TVs and an outdoor one for our inflatable pool. It does add some bulk to the plug so make sure you make room for that. The plug goes straight in. Here is a picture of the TV plugged into the Kasa Plug, then into our surge protector behind our media cabinet.

I used it for the bedroom lamp, pair with the google home, first pairing by kasa app then link the kasa account under google home. It still works well until now after about 3 months, I have move the location and that time and just need to reset it and do the same things, no issue. I also love the design, i look cool, no take over another plugin slot

This is my first smart plug from this particular manufacturer. Two issues - 1: you need to be on 2.4Ghz and not 5Ghz. Found that information online, but not in the app. 2: While setting up the plug in the app, it said I needed to be connected to MY Wi-Fi, which I was. Actually, at that point, I needed to connect to the plugs Wi-Fi signal. That part wasted a ticket to their help desk. Speaking of which, I give a big two thumbs up to their help desk. They responded quickly and gave me a link to instructions that explained it much better than what was in the app. Except for that one little setup glitch, it seems to work well, and I quickly linked to Alexa and tested it several times. I think it will work well for my application.

While these modules are pretty easy to install and work the vast majority of the time, there is one missing piece of functionality. You can set an activity to occur at sunset or sunrise, but this product does not understand the concept of an ‘offset’, the ability to set it to go on or off a specified times before or after sunset or sunrise (for example, 30 minutes after sunset). This would be very useful when turning outside lights on 30 minutes after sunset instead of at sunset itself. There is still too much light outside at sunset to require lights and having these lights come on at a more appropriate time would make far more sense. X-10 products from almost 20 years ago has this functionality, so it can’t be that hard to program.
