Sengled Smart Plug Works with Alexa, Amazon Smart Plug Bluetooth Mesh, Alexa Plug Smart Outlet Remote Control, 15A Smart Socket, 1800W, Timer & Schedule, FCC Certified, No Hub Required, 2-Pack

My wifi goes down on a weekly basis and I only stream content. I can’t panned to put on of these on my surge protector, plug my modem’s power in and use my Sengled Home app to turn the power on/off to the modem power to reset my internet instead of going from bedroom to front of house where modem is to power cycle it. For some reason you can’t connect directly to the switch with your phones bluetooth capability. It must have a wifi signal, which defeats me owning this product. Connect to your laptop he via Bluetooth not wifi

I was hesitate to get this plug because some of the negative reviews. I should have listened to them because they We’re true. If you are thinking of getting this plug mine stopped working after a month. Thankful to the Amazon team they were able to refund me my money and I bought a more expensive plug that I hope will last longer.

These mostly paired quickly when they first arrived (first one paired in seconds with no effort, the rest took a few minutes and some work despite selecting to have them paired to my Alexa before they shipped). I was happy! Used them a few times the first day without issue. Woke up the next morning and all 3 Id set up the day prior said they were unresponsive. Ive tried EVERYTHING and they just dont work. Ive downloaded 3 different apps, tried to repair them with Alexa countless times (they are never found), they arent giving off a Wi-Fi signal so theyre not discoverable via the Sengled app. I tried the 4th one, which I never set up originally, and even that one didnt work (I figured it would set up like the 3 on Day 1 but I was wrong). Absolutely a waste of time and money. So frustrating. Im returning these.

I started my smart plug collection with Amazons house brand but those are pretty expensive for what they are. These work just the same: similar profile so that it doesnt interfere with the other power outlet and super easy discover devices set up from the Alexa app. I believe there is a Sengled app but, it lived up to its claim that their app is not necessary. Its been a few months and no issues so far.

Poor Alexa integration. Box and advertisement state your echo can recognize these, but that’s only after using the manufacturer’s app and downloading the manufacturer’s skill to your echo. Couldn’t get them to pair, dealt with Amazon customer service- a whole hassle not worth it. Check the reviews for the app and the skill… you’re better off paying more for the Amazon brand that connect directly with your echo.

Opened up the Alexa app and searched for devices and there they were ready to go. Super easy to deal with and much easier than using an app and linking to Alexa like many other brands.

After hours online with tech support from Amazon, a solution to why the plugs dont work with Alexa could not be found, it seems that an update has rendered the function useless, another gripe I have about this item is that a second application has to be downloaded, called Sengled Ble Mesh, it does interact with the regular Sengled app and has to be used on its own separately, and whats worse is that it works only on a single device, so if you have multiple people in the household or multiple devices only device can control it. I am terrible dispapointed in Sengled for this, I do not recommend this plugs at all, and will be returning the ones I bought.

Not good connection

So far so good easy to install and works as it says. I would buy more if needed

I bought these plugs because I wanted ones that didnt need its own app but would connect directly with Alexa. The first plug worked fine but Alexa does not recognize or discover the remaining three plugs. Troubleshooting suggests downloading the Sengled app. Well, thats exactly what I didnt want to do. So unless I can still return them, theyre going to the garbage.
