> 24 hourAmazingly Simple to use Smart Plug. I already had SMART LIFE app on my phone for other devices. So it was very easy to setup. Although, the unit came with excellent Manual, I would need not just any glasses to read but 100x magnifier to read it, it is that small. Easy steps to connect 1) Have your home wifi password handy 2) Download Smart Home app from app store (register and log in and write down your password somewhere safe) 3) Plug the Smart plug in an outlet 4) Hard Press any button for about 5 seconds and the light will start blinking 5) Open Smart Home app, and it will automatically show the available device, Smart Plug Duo 6) Click to connect, it will ask for your wifi password and take few seconds to connect if it doesnt try this step again and it will work. 7) test it out by plugging in anything and enjoy. 8) be creative. I am going to use it to turn the lamp on if there is any motion detected on my outside camera. You will have to use IFTTT for this. 9) it automatically connected me to my ALEXA and Google Home service. But you may have to provide access to it and can use it with your voice commands which is awesome. The response time for the switch is pretty fast and you can turn on or control both at the same time. I am so far pretty happy with this unit. Will keep updated as I use it. I was hoping to connect this in my yard to automate the outside lighting but cannot due to its size. I need a single plug as I have rain cover on the outlet outside. I got this unit for free for review but I would have happily paid for this as it is very functional. If you liked me review and learnt something from it why not like it. Thanks.

> 24 hourI use these for my lamps around the house. They are so nice and easy to use. They are also fantastic if you have an outlet with an outlet extender. It allows you to add this to an outlet extender without covering up all the other outlets. I have the other ones around the house the circular ones this brand is great! Cheap and reliable!

> 24 hourUsed these along with Alexa for Christmas lights and it was so much more convenient than setting up timers for each outlet. Love that these can be set up for multiple items and turned on and off whenever I want with voice control.

> 24 hourThis device functions well, but does not suit my application. The basic problems are physical. I want to control two LED aquarium lights that are powered with wall warts. The first issue is that there isnt enough space between the sockets for them both to be plugged in. The second issue is that the power block pushes the devices switches and turns them on an off.

> 24 hourThe switches were very quick and easy to setup after downloading the Smart Life app. The hardest part was reading where in the directions to find how to enter pairing mode, considering the directions are written really small and come in two separate booklets. But once I figured that i just had to hold one of the buttons, it paired very quickly in my app, which was a relief considering how many problems Ive had pairing smart devices in the past (bulbs, blinds, switches). I was able to sync it up to Alexa very quickly as well but after that, I found out that I couldnt toggle off the left or right switches separately through Alexa. It only had the option to turn both on or off. While in the Smart Life app, you can do this though. Its just an issue for certain situations, for example: a light and a speaker in one adapter, and you wanted to turn off the lights with an Alexa voice command but still keep the music on while youre sleeping. Overall, Im happy after I reorganized commands and plugs to fit my needs. It was very helpful to have these for an area where I had multiple devices I wanted to link to smart switches but only one wall outlet.

> 24 hourI liked the cheap price. Although it was more difficult to set up than all the Kasa smart plugs I have purchased, it did work after a successful set up. Then it stopped working, after, like, a day or less. I re-did the set up, and it worked again, but then it stopped working again. I think I did this three times total, then gave up. Maybe it is just a settings issue. But I couldnt figure it out. I did figure out all the Kasa products, and recommend them.

> 24 hourI use these for my Christmas tree and star on the tree. Love the timer so I dont have to unplug or plug them back in. When I get up they are lit up and just when I get ready for bed they are off. Awesome!

> 24 hourAlexa, turn the Christmas trees off! Its THAT easy. 1. Install the KMC app and sync the plugs (took me maybe 2 minutes max?) 2. Open the alexa app and associate the plugs (under the outlet/plug section, go figure!) 3. command those lights! These have the added feature of TWO plugs per outlet, each of which has a physical on/off toggle on the switch for individual work. In my experience, Alexa just commands the unit as a whole, but the KMC app lets you run each outlet. Easy, cheap, works!
