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 bought this for my husband who is currently unable to turn the light on and off in the living room due to medical conditions, but this was rather easy to install. I noticed it was packed in a mini box and did not immediately see the instructions as the print was too hard for me to read. But I kind of knew right away that I needed to download the Kasa app based on different reviews online that Ive read on this product, both on Amazon and off other sites. Had created my TP Link Kasa account and then verified myself and was able to connect to Wifi on the Xfinity white XFI Gateway model and then went back to the Alexa App to link the two together. I maybe spent about 8 to 9 minutes setting this up but once it was done, my husband can now use the Echo Dot to turn off the lights. Previously he was using the clapper, which proved to be an issue with mobility and clapping. This was a bargain for the price spent and I may buy a few more in the future once I can expand our technology.

Great so far. But you have to turn off the VPN during install. Other than that its a piece of cake to install. Oh in the network goes down they wont work.

Ive purchased 5 of these plugs now and have them placed all over my house. They are very easy to setup with the Kasa app, which walks you through the quick process very clearly. Ive had them for a couple of months now and have had no issues with them, even after a couple of power outages and a new router/wi-fi network (you will have to reconfigure the plugs if you change your network). Ive also purchased their two-outlet plug. One thing I wish TP-Link had is a single-outlet plug that runs sideways when plugged in. When connecting a wire to the plug, it sticks out further from the wall, which can sometimes be an issue if youre trying to put the plug in a tight space, like behind furniture. A sideways option (similar to their two-outlet plug design) would be great.

After using this plug with the app for many months, they broke it without any notification. I had a schedule to turn it on every day at sunset, and turn it off after bedtime. Worked for a long time, then suddenly, it will only set to Sun, Mon, Tue (even though it says on the main page MWF). At first, I thought, oh thats why its not working, and I went through and set it for all days, and saved. Opened it back up, and it was back to MTW. No way would it set for more than the 3 days. So I tried making a new one for Th Fri Sat, and it wouldnt accept it. It says I must choose a day. Even if I edit an existing action to delete M Tu Wed, it will give an error. So, bottom line, it only will schedule an action for Mon, Tue, and Wed. But it doesnt tell you that, of course. A quick search led me to many Reddit posts about this, and how many people got screwed when it didnt do something they were counting on. At least it still works with Alexa, so far. Probably works with Google Home, too, but I havent figured out how to set it up because I used to have a Wemo plug, and Google keeps trying to talk to Wemo.

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

Been using for several months now with Alexa and have had no problems and it works well for any device I plug into in to control on and off through Alexa.

I love these smart plug ins. Ive got several for lamps and other things. I recently purchased one for the fan in my bedroom. I dont run a fan every night but when I do decide I need it, its great that I can just ask Google to turn it on after Ive gotten all settled into bed.

i like the easiness of turning on/ off a device using this Smart Plug. Have to follow thru the sequence on the two Apps. I now have purchased 4 Mini Plugs which had not intended to do but since with an Alexa command, it is so technical to make life better. I recommend this Seller and their Smart Plugs.

Very easy to set up. I attached all my Christmas lights and programmed a schedule. Never had to deal with lights for the whole season. Performs as advertised. Would highly recommend.

These are the first ever smart plugs I’ve tried, mainly to turn my lamps into “smart lamps”. While they work flawlessly there is one thing to note that whenever I turn on my lights using the app or by asking Google, there’s this ticking noise that can be improved. Also, I got two of these, both work but the second one seems to have some connectivity issues and sometimes it won’t turn on when I ask Google or use the app.
