> 3 dayI have 4 of these to remotely turn on roof and gutter deicers at my mountain cabin. Weather service says it snowing I turn them on from 200 miles away. Have worked great for the last year. It would be great if there was one with 2 outlets that could carry 20 Amp but happy with these .

> 3 dayI have tried to pair this several times, watched videos to make sure Im doing it correctly and it times out every time. The plug itself works but I bought it for the wi-fi capability.

> 3 dayNice well made product. Heavy duty cord with 90° angle plug. Uses bluetooth to connect, which makes it easy & fast, but wifi is the protocol after connecting,which makes it pretty versatile & reliable. The fact that the receptacles can be operated separately or together is an excellent feature. Not many plugs have this option. Integrated with Google Assistant easily & works flawlessly. I set up a Google Home routine that turns on or off all my holiday lights at once. That was my intended purpose for the plugs & its working out perfectly. Good product, wish it was compatible with SmartThings though. Ill update if there are any changes in quality or compatibility.

Greater than one weekThis switch is awesome! Just a few, random connectivity issues so far, but... that doesnt really impact me for my purposes. BUT...I want to append to the review by J. Salmi in using Smart Life or Minoston app. After installing either app, I still could not get the bluetooth working for automatic adding. On my Galaxy S20 Android phone, I went into the settings for each app and found that Nearby Devices was not being allowed. NO IDEA why neither app didnt default this or ask me to do so. Once I manually allowed the permission of Nearby Devices, each app immediately identified and installed this Plug entry. (note that you can only use 1 of these apps as the other will have the entry removed). Thanks J. Salmi for your help in spite of all that frustration! :)

> 3 dayObviously easyto install. Just plug in. NOTE it has the plug at a 45 degree so depending on your application it’s either great or a hassle. I have mine outside to run a set of string lights and fairly far from a wifi spot so time will tell if it loses signal. Setting up Bluetooth app is a breeze but took a few headscratching moments to use with Alexa. Once I figured out I had to enable a new skill it was very easy. So far so good. Will advise later if it loses connection but liking the price and construction as of day one!

> 3 dayThe Smart Plug has worked really great for 2-weeks now! The app was a little bit of a pain so Im going it 4-stars. Had to download App off of their site instead of the google store. Im using the Smart Plug to turn my landscape lights on/off. FYI....When you set up the events in the app make sure you set up one event to turn on the device you are using and another event to turn off the device you are using. I currently have (2) Smart Plugs on the same App and going to purchase another (2) as I roll out my project to the front of the house.

> 3 dayIt works just as it should so no complaints. Took a little while to connect it to our Alexa, even though directions were included. We had to make a few attempts and flip the Wi-Fi on and off a few times and connecting the smartplug app to the Amazon app was a little cumbersome, but eventually it worked. I wish it didnt require downloading a separate app to work, but its not a huge deal.

> 3 daySo this plug does what it says. Allows me to run a pump when needed from anywhere (with internet). The instructions were awful and getting this connected was about as frustrating as anything Ive ever done in my life - and no Im not exaggerating.
