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

The product works well but not for my needs. I wanted to use it to power up my stereo but theres no way to keep my unit from defaulting back to thinner after power goes off. It would be great with a lamp.

This smart plug fulfills it purpose wonderfully. I just wish it could do more (e.g. like its big brother, the Kasa 6 plug power strip, which tracks the electrical usage of each plug). Originally purchased to turn on and off a difficult to access lamp, it lost its purpose after I received just one Philip smart bulb. Well, actually, after the first smart bulb, I realized every lamp and light fixture needed a smart dimmable bulb. While I have, yet, to convert 100% of the fixtures, all lamps are now using Philip smart dimmable bulbs. The bulbs are so much better than an on/off switch. I have yet to find the plug another purpose. The power strip is tracking the electrical usage of my big computer, 3 monitors, and external devices (e.g. drives, video capture, hubs, etc). This plug, unlike the strip, can only turn on and off. Our goal with these smart devices is to track and / or reduce our electric usage. Beside the lights and computer, there really isnt anything we own needing remote on / off capability. It isnt the plugs fault, its just got limits. If you need a smart plug, this one or the Amazon smart plug are the ones you should consider. Of course, you should consider getting a plug able to track your electrical needs There is always its brother the strip. 5 stars, after all my lack of finding it a new job isnt its fault.

This is an amazing device. My lights are now programmed to come on and go off at a certain time. The integration with my WiFi was seamless and the Kasa App was a breeze to setup.

I have tried many of the auto switch brand as I have remote properties that I need to monitor and reset devices. I have had problems with WeMo, Blackloud, Amazon switches, and a couple other brands I have tried. Problems from apps that were not the best... to problems with the devices loosing there wifi connects.. etc.. which are all a disaster when your a long way away and cant unplug it to reset. With Kasa, I have only had this problem with maybe 2 devices out of 40, and they had to be reset. With the other brands I had failure rates up to 50 percent... and then some of the other brands couldnt find the device a 2nd time etc... With Kasa it seems very stable, no surprises, always works.. everything shows up on the app. So my multi year test and waste of money has come to an end.. I tossed all the old bad choices, and only use Kasa now.. I love automation. I even have these on auto car float chargers and that I just set to go on twice a week for 3 hours.. all works great. I just wait for sales on these and then load up more. Plus I have Alexa echos in my house.. and have all these linked up so I simple say use commands to turn on and off when going to bed.. also use the auto schedule for most items. Pretty cool.

I am so happy with these plugs. If you download the Kasa app and follow the directions they are seamless and easy to initiate and use with Alexa. Yea for easy to connect and use. Earlier turned in a bad review for these plugs. And I apologize. It was because I was using the app for the plugs I was replacing, not noticing that these are Kasa’s. Kasa’s are super easy and reliable.

I 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.

I wanted to get a plug so I could set up a timer for my Christmas tree this year. I knew I could get an analogue timer, but wanted something I could use after the holiday season was over for other uses. I trust TheWirecutter.com when it comes to new products, but after looking at the reviews on the Wemo Mini not lining up with their experience, I took a chance on this plug, as it was on sale. I downloaded the Kasa app onto my phone (Pixel 3a), created an account, and then followed the instructions on the device to sync it to my account and wifi network. Once I did that, I was able to name it, give it a schedule and then tie it to my Google Home account. The scheduling options are more robust than I expected, and it allowed some variance as to when my tree came on. Now the thing is figuring out what to use it for next now that Ive taken my tree down.

We have had some garage break-ins in our area and someone recommended I get one of these for my garage. Using the app on my phone lets me set the timer. Now I don’t have to worry about anyone using a garage door opener to get in. Great product.

It integrated with Google perfectly, although I did have to download the TP-Link app as well. The unit does not take up much space so I can use the outlet below with no issue. Its always worked perfectly from the widget on my phone unlike some other smart devices I have.

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.
