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

Ive selected nothing but TP-Link smart plugs and switches for my home for two simple reasons: - Their app is the best... I can easily set my lighting schedule for all my bulbs and wall switches using easy program steps. Just to say program is deceptive - its not complicated at all. I especially love that I can turn lights on at sunset and off at sunrise, based on my precise location. So in the winter, the lights come on earlier that the summer. TP-Link makes this drop-dead easy to do. - I can use just one app on my phone to control all these things. If you start trying several different companies products, you end of with several different companies apps on your phone. I stumbled onto TP-Link first when I wanted to turn my espresso machine on in the morning before I wake up. I loved how I could have it come on automatically at 6am - but if I was awake earlier, I could have Alexa turn the machine on earlier. Why mess with several apps when TP-Link works so well with Alexa and my phone?

I mostly use these so my living room lamps and over cabinet lighting are on a timer. They come on in the afternoon, and turn off around the time we go to bed. The over cabinet lights are on all night to give the kitchen a subtle glow. The app is also nice. Ive used other products with buggy apps, but this is easy to use and doesnt have the bugs that the other apps have. Its 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.

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.

Weve 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.

I have 3 other smart plugs which I purchased on Amazon which are working fine. I purchased 2 other smart plugs on Amazon , and I cannot connect either one. The customer support on T-Link is not helpful and difficult to connect with my particular issue. I have no other option than to return the last 2 smart plugs. Please provide customer support for items sold on Amazon if you wish to increase your smart plug sales.

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.

This is one of my favorite smart devices. I have a few of my own and have given a few as gifts. Super easy to set up and works great with both Alexa and Google Home. Loved using it with my Christmas tree.

Rather that plug/unplug Christmas lights in three places multiple times a day, I tried these this year. It was great! I just opened the app and tap-tap-tap the lights on/off as I wanted throughout each day. I mightve been able to make Scene to do it all in one-tap, but it so easy already that I didnt bother. There was generally a couple seconds delay as the app connected after a period of non-use. Once or twice this was a bit longer. Overall no issue. Ill probably find more good uses during the rest of the year and use these again.

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.
