> 3 dayFive stars for the product. To me, Meross is leading the pack in delivering affordable, reliable HomeKit devices. I have 30+ of their devices in my home. One thing I like about Meross products as compared to other companies is their ability to reconnect to wifi with no intervention. For example after a power outage. The only issues Ive had with the Smart Mini plug is the inability to update firmware on some versions. Admittedly, the process for updating firmware is not flawless but also not worse than most other companys HomeKit devices. Ideally it needs to be integrated better with the Home application instead of relying on their own application. Specifically with the Smart Mini plug, I have had multiple issues with updating and needing to reset version MS110 (the old version). MS110R (the new version) seems to be much more stable and updates work as expected. Which brings me to the title of this review. My experience (YMMV) is that plugs I order from Meross Direct are the new version. Plugs that I order from Milesi Home are the old version. Even my most recent order from them August 2022. For me, its worth it to seek out a seller who will provide the updated new version.

> 3 dayWhen all points are connected I find it very easy to use, connects with my Apple home App very well. Set up was also a breeze, and you get the choice of using the Meross App (recommended to at least have the app) or just skipping that and going with Apple Home app. I have been using these smart plugs for about 6 months and have experienced intermittent connectivity issues. They typically resolve when I either unplug/plug in or reconnect the device, however many of these outlets are in hard to reach places, so it is very cumbersome to have to reconnect them. One of the four plugs has already died on me sadly, so I will be testing out different smart plugs going forward.

> 3 dayI have had a battle trying to set these up with HomeKit. Meross provides a ton of troubleshooting methods such as restarting the router, turn iPhone on/off, switch Wi-Fi to 2.4GHz, factory reset the switch. I have never been more frustrated setting up a HomeKit product. After all this troubleshooting I could only get 2 out of 4 to pair, and after all this troubleshooting I have no idea what was actually successful. The two that are paired work great, but my oh my was getting them setup a huge pain. EDIT: once they are paired, they are a breeze, and an awesome product that is great for the price.

> 3 dayAll the reviews that say easy to install... I have no idea what they are talking about, unless there are certain serial numbers of these plugs with the right software/hardware out of the factory that work amazingly, and other serial numbers still lingering in Amazon warehouses to be sent out that are doomed. But I ordered these both in Dec 2021 and in July 2022, first 4 plugs, then 8 plugs, and I ended up returning them all within the first day of use. First 4 couldnt deal with my 2.4/5Ghz mesh network where the networks shared the same name. But since then I upgraded to Orbi 960 6E mesh which has 6G and 2.4G networks named separately. Cool, I thought. Both a better network setup on my part and hopefully newer plugs with factory-upgraded firmware that know how to work on HomeKit better than 6 months earlier. Nope. I tried everything documented and undocumented, as well as tips & tricks mentioned in these comments, to get them onto my 2.4GHz home network along with my iPhone (everything was the latest version: iPhone, iOS and Meross app) and none of them connected properly, not via HomeKit, not via Meross app. Tried to connect them in the app, or without the app in HomeKit, or as a non-HomeKit device (by going through the Wifi network of the plug), in all cases the post factory-reset plug would switch from green/amber flashing LED to solid green LED, yet no connection to the app or HomeKit would be established. Checked on the routers admin page, and they were NOT blocked by the router, assigned their IP, properly shown as properly connected to the 2.4G wireless network with their correct MAC address. Therefore, I couldnt even check or update their firmware! Unless you want to try out your luck, Id say you stay away from these. In this day and age of 5G/6G mesh networks in many many homes, their 2.4G-only requirement and non-intuitive setup process, unchanged over 6 months, made me totally lose trust in this brand. Ill certainly wont give them a 3rd chance at making a first impression.

> 3 dayThese are very easy to set up once you understand the process. You run the Home app, add an accessory, and scan the Q-code with your phone. Next you immediately plug it into an open plug so that the device can be found via WiFi. I recommend doing this with an easily accessible plug *near* your WiFi router initially before taking it to its destination. Why? The set up can take longer with a plug farther away and sometimes it would not complete when further away. So I would have to bring it closer, and try again. Once the plug is added, you can easily take it further away without any operational issues (so long as you are in WiFi range of course).

> 3 dayMy review will be focused on HomeKit functionality, as this is why I purchased this product. First off I ordered a 4 pack, shipping is always great with prime so no need to go into details on that. So far I have only been able to get 2 of the 4 added to my HomeKit setup. I did have to work around a few things to get those two synced as I have an Orbi mesh WiFi system. With that I have been unable to get the other 2 to sync. Now mind you with the Meross application I can get the devices to join the network so there is no issue with the 2.4Ghz to 5Ghz issues on my end. My problem is strictly with the devices ability to connect to HomeKit which right now I am at 50% being able to connect. Once the devices are connected and functioning I have had nothing but great success (with the 2 connected). They are responsive and have both been setup on automation based on times of the day as they both have Christmas lights plugged into them. Overall I gave the product 3 stars as the items claims to be easy to connect to HomeKit which is not truly the case (at least for me) again people may claim “well you have a mesh WiFi router” which is true. However, if that truly was an issue, then why after I try to connect the device through HomeKit and it fails, does it connect and function through the Meross application? Like I said I wanted this product strictly for the HomeKit compatibility.

> 3 dayAt times when theres software upgrade on the Smart Plug I found some delay in synching with iPhone. Other than that works smoothly. Will definitely recommend the product.

12-06-2025I started buying Meross Smart MiniPlugs about a year ago, attracted by their price, and a little nervous about their quality. I have found the MiniPlugs to be solidly built, relatively easy to set up, and have had no reliability issues. I also bought a smart wall switch and wall dimmer switch from Meross. Same good experience with both of those. Although I believe you can add these devices to Home without installing the Meross app, you will not be able to get upgraded firmware for the devices without having a Meross app and account. This is not a big issue - the app is free, and doesnt trouble you with notifications or junk mail, etc. Apple Home will tell you that a device update is available. You simply use the app, click update and its done. I bought another 4 mini plugs during a cyber Monday deal saving about $2 on each device. Even without the discount, these smart plugs are an excellent value.

> 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.)

Greater than one weekI purchased the smart outlets to replace my Wemo outlets. The Meross outlets respond instantly. Granted my Wemo are a few years old, but there was always a delay in response. I really like the Meross app. I use it for my Meross garage door controller, wall switches, and outlets. I especially like the widget, which allow for quick access. The Wemo app does not have a widget. The Meross app widget is still the older pre-IOs 14 style, but I like how it shows the on and off state of each device. This new model offers Apple HomeKit support, and I did create a toggle switch in the Shortcuts app for the outlets, but The Shortcut buttons don’t show the on or off state. But HomeKit does allow you to create automations, like having a light go on when you arrive home. You can create routines in the app for on or off at a time or based on sunrise or sunset times. My only complaint with the app is that you can’t create just 1 routine with an on and off time, you need to create a routine for the on time and another for the off time. In the Wemo app, you could do both in 1 routine. You can also group Meross devices in Scenes, so you can control several with 1 button. One issue I ran into was with Alexa. Since I was replacing an existing outlet with a new outlet, I changed the name of the old outlet and removed it from the group, then gave the new outlet the old name so my voice commands would be the same, and added it to the group. It didn’t work at first, Alexa said I had multiple devices named “light”. After I deleted the old device completely, and waited a day, it worked. My guess is that the Alexa database must take a while to fully delete old devices, so be careful if replacing a device and using the same names.
