Lets start with the Good news for this Outdoor Dimmer Plug. I have it installed and I will continue to use it for now. Bought this Dimmer Plug because I wanted both the timer and the dimmer features. Right now, my lights are dim, and the timer functionality appears to work. So Im ok with what I have. On the Not so good side, I have a few concerns. The Dimmer functionality doesnt really work for my string of lights. Regardless of the Dimmers settings, the lights pretty much stay at the same level, which is dim (i.e. Low Brightness). If I turn up the brightness level in the app, the lights do not get brighter. Ive run the Compatibility test several times as well, and doesnt seem to really do much either. As I was trying to get things to work as expected, by varying the Minimum brightness level and the Brightness Level, I was able to (by trial and error) find settings where the lights would not flash or pulsate, but this process wasnt really intuitive. So yes, in the end, I have the functionality I want, and the price was affordable. But Im not convinced that this Dimmer is going to continue to work as expected. Well see, but for now, Ill give this Dimmer a Just OK rating for now.

My switch for the outside plug is in the basements which is where I have the Xmas lights plugged in, ugh! This plug is great, I just tell Alexa to turn on/off the outside lights, love it! Better than a timer, and I’m pretty sure there’s a timer on it too.

One completely quit working after 4 months. Otherwise theyre nice and easy to use/connect. I havent decided if Im going to give the Meross outlet another try so all outlkets are on same app, or just replace all outlets with a different brand. Maybe this one that stopped working was a one-off - who knows. UPDATE 5/10/2023: Meross reached out to me (without me needing to contact them) about the issues I was experiencing. They seemed genuinely concerned about my satisfaction with the outlet. They also wanted more information about the outlet itself so they could research the manufacturer of the components. They replaced the outlet and I had it asbout 2 days later. Everything is working as it should, and bot out the outlets are working perfectly. 5 stars on the outlet and the app. 10 stars if I could on Meross customer service!

This outdoor plug works great. Our outdoor deck lights are now fully integrated into our Alexa and Google Home systems. We have them set up for automatic control and we dont need to find a switch when we want them on or off. The set up was simple and quick.

I bought this as a dimmer, not needing the Outdoor rating; simply because I couldnt find any SmartHome indoor dimmer units that werent switch box/wall mounts. Im using it to dim, i.e., turn down the level of a Kombucha warmer mat, that I converted into a mouse pad warmer, for winter usage. Works right fine. The software also integrates well into the Samsung Smart Things ph app, that I use to control it. Timer function to turn off after a (customizable) specified period also works well. Recommended w/o reservation.

I bought this to run my outside Christmas lights. With 3 plugs it works great but to my surprise you can control each plug and name them so now I can run many different routes all day long with lights and blowup 100% recommend this product!

The basic setup was good, connect with phone app- link to alexa. Perfect, however, theres no hint, icon or instruction on setting up separate control over each plug. Im in IT, , have multiple smart plugs - not clear. Tried FAQ with no luck. advise please.

I bought this so I wouldnt have to go outside to turn off my holiday lights/decorations especially in the winter. I love that it not only has a timer feature but you can also turn it off/on and adjust the timer on your phone. Exactly what I was looking for!

I am using this smart plug on my balcony. It is plugged into another outdoor power strip. Right now Im only using one of the three outlets for my outdoor LED lights and it has been working like a charm. I have the lights programmed to turn on at sunset, and they turn off at 10pm on weekdays, midnight on weekends. I have this outlet and the other power strip mounted on the wall to preserve floor space and it makes it easy to keep the balcony clean. The app is very easy to install and use. I am very pleased with this product.

Took awhile to hook up to Alexa but once did figure it out it works good. Just haven’t figured out the timer.
