> 3 dayI have around ten Meross smart items. A few Plugs and Blubs. When they stay connected and work, theyre truly amazing. But sadly, they often lose WIFI connection which requires a reset. Resetting the device is an absolute hassle as you need to delete the device(s) from the Meross or HomeKit app and then attempt to re-add them. Re-adding a device thats already been added can be a real headache as the connection will fail and claim the device already exists even though its been removed. I often need to complete the setup process many, many, many times before it will actually work and the device appears in my ecosystem again. When I finish writing this review, I need to attempt to reconnect 2 smart plugs and 1 bulb. This will be my fourth attempt this morning and the third time Ive had to do this process in the two weeks that Ive owned the devices. Be mindful, if you have MANY Meross devices, they all need to be connected/reconnected INDIVIDUALLY which can be time-consuming. Ill still continue to purchase Meross plugs and Bulbs but I honestly home the coming Firmware updates resolve this insanity.

Greater than one weekI have no issues with Meross smart plugs. I recommend them 100% over WeMos if youre making a choice. Their customer service is also fantastic. The QR code rubbed off one of the outside switches and they were able to recover and send it to me to put it back on my network. Meross smart plugs all the way!

> 3 dayCountless attempts to add these to HomeKit in the usual way failed. I followed the manufacturers troubleshooting tips and switched my wifi to 2.4 GHz only but this didnt work. Finally, after some internet searching, here is how I was finally able to pair them... 1. Plug in the meross outlet 2. Turn iPhone to airplane mode but turn wifi back on. 3. Go to apples settings -> Wi-Fi and scroll down below the list of wifi networks and you should see Set Up New Device section with the Meross device listed and tap on that. 4. A pop up will appear telling you this is a home accessory, tap Add to Home & Wi-Fi 5. An Add accessory pop up will appear and you will be tempted to use the iphone camera to scan the qr code on the plug. dont do it. select More options.... 6. From Select an Accessory to Ad to My Home pop up, tap the icon for the meross plug 7. A pop up that says Setup Code will appear and enter in the number that appears on the qr code sticker on the plug. Finally, using that procedure, all the plugs were able to add to HomeKit.

> 3 dayIt took several attempts to get this to install properly with Apple Home Kit. Tried the supplied app and through Apple Home. Finally got it installed through Apple Home and its run flawlessly since.

> 3 dayI have purchased about a dozen of these for different houses. They are generally easy to set up with HomeKIt. However, there are a number of inconsistencies that seem to point to manufacturing issues: 1) Out of the box, some dont set up easily, others do. Same wifi, same location. 2) Some seem to lose connectivity once set up, others dont. Again, same wifi and same location. A few will frequently be updating when I want to control them. I like them, like the price point and buy in sets of, but may have to look for alternatives if 25-50% of the pack arent useable.

> 3 dayPro: size - two plugs easily fit in a standard double outlet and on standard size power strip (on compact strips you would still be able to fit a two-prong plug next to it.) This is a huge improvement over the old TP-link plug that took up 2 spaces on my power strip even when it was placed on the top (see picture.) Operation & Integration - once connected the plug just work. I quickly forgot that they werent always there; waiting for my command. I can turn off all the lights in the house from the iphone flip-up screen. Installation - Like a lot of Meross products, the plug has EZ mode and AP mode. The detail instruction sheet takes you through EZ mode. However, the plugs were all in AP mode (slow blink) and I could not get it to blink fast even after 3 resets. Once you get over the fact that the instruction sheet is quite unhelpful and follow the instructions below, and you will find that installation is a breeze. 1. Plug it in. Make sure that the light blinks green/amber. If its steady green, as in a previous setup, press and hold the button for 5 seconds to get it into setup mode. 2. on you iPhone, go to Settings | Wireless. wait a few seconds until the plug shows up under the heading set up new device... The name is meross_sw_B210 or something similar... Click on it. 3. You now get a message that allows you to Add to Home & Wi-Fi (see picture.) Smash that link to turn on the camera and scan the top of the plug to add it into Homekit. 4. After about 30 seconds Homekit allows you to select the room and name of the new device. The phone automatically switch back to you home wireless network. cons: Not a huge issue, but the position of the button on the side of the plug could be challenging to your less techie household members. The ability to share homekit settings with everyone can mitigate the issue, but Im a bit concern that Ill get a talking-to the next time my wife tries to turn on the floor lamp in the den. I have a couple of floor lamps and my Roku device connected to plugs. No more having to get up to manually reset Roku. A voice command to Alexa does the trick. The 4th plug is connected to my electric tea kettle to schedule it for my morning brew (until I get a smart tea kettle, but thats a battle for another day.)

> 3 dayThese are easy to set up. I especially like that I can access them through the app when I am away from home to turn lights on or off. I definitely recommend them.

> 3 dayIf you already have lightbulbs and just need a smart plug to control using Apple HomeKit, then this is the product for you. A 4 pack was perfect for multiple lights/electronic gadget of your choice. Seamless integration with HomeKit. Highly recommended.
