Meross WiFi Dual Smart Plug, 15A 2-in-1 Smart Outlet, Support Apple HomeKit, Siri, Alexa, Echo, Google Home and SmartThings, Voice & Remote Control, Timer, No Hub Required, 2.4G Only, 2 Pack

I have switched most of my smart plugs to the dual smart plug. They were working great and now are not updating their firmware. I would consider myself a techie person. Meross has run into issues with an iOS update. I have followed all of their directions and done some of my own troubleshooting to no avail. It’s a shame because I really thought these were a great find. Unfortunately I am stuck with nonfunctioning smart plugs. I have a couple other brand of smart devices, all of which had no issue with the iOS update. Really disappointed that Meross hasn’t fixed this issue.

[Edit] The support team reached out and asked for details of the problem. And then they sent me a replacement which works great. I thought they would ask me to update my review but it has been a month now and they never asked, despite providing a replacement. Which is the reason I am updating this review on my own. It is only fair. [Previously] I bought four of these and one worked ok for a couple of months and then started flashing amber continuously and stopped working. I followed instructions and tried resetting it but that doesnt do anything.

This dual outlet switch allows me to easily turn on/off 2 monitors that have switches awkwardly placed on the back. I simply ask Alexa to turn them off, use the Meross app, or swipe my phone over an NFC. Or, I can go old school by reaching across my desk and use the switches on the outlet itself! Wow!

The only issue had is we had to go through the set up twice, but we haven’t had any issues since. Couldn’t be happier with them.

La calidad del artículo está bien, el primero lo pude configurar sin ningún inconveniente. Sin embargo para configurar el segundo tuve muchos problemas, tanto con la aplicación nativa como con HomeKit. Tuve que restablecerlo varias veces e intentar configurarlo de nuevo, pensé que era cuestión de ese toma específicamente pero al restablecer el primero y tratar de configurar inicialmente el que daba problemas se configuró muy fácil. Al parecer se presentan inconvenientes cuando se van a configurar dos tomas de los mismos, tuve que configurar el primero, eliminar la aplicación, volver a instalarla e iniciar la configuración del segundo, solo así después de muchos intentos pude tener los dos configurados. La respuesta con Siri y con HomeKit es muy buena hasta ahora.

Cheap and they work well. I have been using them for a few weeks now and haven’t had any “No Response” issues like I did with Wemo. They are connected to an Apple AirPort Time Capsule (same as the AP Extreme) The Meross app is only needed for updating the firmware, the rest can be done with the Home.app.

I bought this to act as a dumb switch for homekit so I can automate when the switch comes on to do something else like open garage door, or unlock level bolt for the door. But since I didnt want both the garage and door to work at the same time this one switch controls each outlet independently. So I have one outlet on the switch for one action automation, and the other for another automation action . Now I just hid it behind the bed and out of sight without the need to buy two separate switches plugged into two of my wall outlets. And its one less thing I have to put on the wifi, and one less thing I have to set up.

This purchase was my very first Smarthome purchase. I needed something that worked with Apples Siri & Homekit for automation of my lighting. Once I set these up (one controls both lamps in the living room, the other my two lamps in the entry) they have worked flawlessly. I have set my lights to come on every day at 5:30pm and, when they do, I still get a kick out of it every time. I can also control each light separately using Siri and Homekit. Shortly after I bought these, I realized that I could also do the same thing using Smartbulbs but Ive left these in place for now. Eventually, Ill move these to control anything I need to that isnt a bulb but that Id want to control the on/off periods for. I love these though. I love them especially for controlling lamps in pairs really easily and quickly. Im surprised and impressed that I have had ZERO issues. They have never once not performed or had any connection issues. Pretty impressive given that they cater to multiple platforms that typically dont play well together. Apple users dont have near enough choices, let alone good solid ones that work. I highly recommend.

Looked very promising but fell flat pretty quickly. For security / privacy reasons I wanted to avoid using the app and tried to set them up with HomeKit directly. The whole process is so annoying that I had to send them back, it pretty much doesn’t work. Also good look using your HomePod with it, they only support 2.4 Ghz

I bought this product containing 2 plugs and it was not easy to set up. The first plug was set up using the Meross app. Then I was able to connect the Smart Things app. This worked for a while. Then both apps were unable to connect to the plug. Interesting, I was able to turn the plug on and off but unable to program it. I contacted support and they said to use Apple Home to install the plugs. I do not recommend buying this plug.
