> 24 hourThese plugs are great. I plugged all of our Christmas lights into multiple plugs and put them all in a group called “Christmas Lights”. So easy to turn every light on and off with one simple request to Alexa

> 24 hourThis smart plug was really good, i can control the light in my closet as well as my desk lamp by voice control via alexa. It’s so great not having to reach to the remote every time i want to turn on the lamp. Make sure you have a really good wifi connection so your alexa has no problem connecting, but other than that i definitely recommend!

> 24 hourThese cubes plugs have a slightly lower rating the the larger ones, so keep that in mind and look at your exact needs. These are perfect for lots of application. I use these to shut off a power strip with lots of vampire plugs on it. Has timer and schedules and a great I phone app that sees updates often. Id advise against buying no name plugs, as each brand needs a different and sometimes questionable application. Caught a firmware update on install, but as always reliable. Ive been using TP link for years to control bits in my home that can be difficult to reach ( I use one on a balky smart fridge so I dont have to go out to the breaker panel when it crashes) perfect with alexa, give it a try, you wont know how you lived without it. Solid out of network operation too on my iphone

> 24 hourI ordered this because I got special pricing by ordering through Alexa. It was cheap enough to try something new out. It was easy to integrate with my cellphone and our home wireless internet. I like that I can turn on the bedside lamp in my room prior to entering the room and then I can turn it off from my phone before I go to sleep. It has some other features like timers and energy monitoring that I dont really use that often, but the timers may be useful for times we are away for an extended trip. Its a convenient and nice little gadget.

> 24 hourI had a competing brand smart plug that would not reconnect after a power interruption. Furthermore, the online help support for that issue did not correct the problem. I depended upon that wifi outlet to operate a remote device. After several frustrating attempts to resolve the situation, I decommissioned the ( we mow) device and replaced with the Kasa. After a two or three power blinks, the device reconnects without issue. I do not use Alexa integration nor have used tech support.

> 24 hourThis is a decent smart plug considering the price. It works, and it will connect w/Alexa. The side button for manual operation works better than a front button for applications where it might be behind a dresser, appliance, etc. The downsides, and the reasons I consider it an average product are: - Requires an app to configure. Really, the last thing I want is another app on my phone, especially to control smart devices in my house when my goal is to consolidate in Alexa or Smartthings. None of my other smart plugs require a third-party app to connect, they are simply discoverable. - Significant lag w/Alexa. I have this plug controlling an LED light strip under my kitchen cabinets and its grouped with my other kitchen lights. While every other light comes on immediately, there is always a lag of several seconds before this plug responds. More of an irritation. - Tends to start falling out of the outlet if you have something bulky plugged into it, perhaps with a transformer integrated in the plug vs an everyday plug (like for a lamp). I think this is because of its primarily horizontal orientation vs a vertical orientation like other smart plugs I have. It hasnt fallen out altogether yet, but whenever I look at it I wind up pushing it fully back in to the socket.

> 24 hourI have been using the smart switch to control the light in my entertainment room for over a year now. It is working great. No complain.

> 24 hourWeve had a great experience with the Kasa Smart Plug by TP-Link in our smart home setup. The device works exceptionally well and has a strong WiFi reception that seamlessly integrates into our network. Although it requires the Kasa app to be downloaded on your phone, the device performs well and delivers on its promises. While we would appreciate the convenience of a webpage login to control the device, were grateful for the benefits it provides to our business. If youre looking for a reliable smart plug, we would hrecommend considering the Kasa Smart Plug by TP-Link.

> 24 hourWe love these! We bought a few extra for all of our Christmas lights this year. Being able to put them on her schedule was amazing. I also love to tell Alexa. Hey Alexa turn on Christmas and they all just light up together throughout the house. TP Link Has been the best brand we found so far that carries all smart lights across the board. All forms of smart switches and plugs across. One app to control everything instead of multiple apps figuring out which light or switch is on which app. Some of their switches are a little bit more expensive than competitors however many competitors don’t have the 3 way switches or the dimmers.

> 24 hourWhile 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.
