Smart plug 4 Packs, KTMC Mini Wifi Outlet Compatible with Alexa, Google Home, No Hub Required, Remote Control Your Home Appliances from Anywhere, ETL Certified

I already have about twenty smart wifi plugs (and a couple of smart power strips) in my home and needed a couple more plugs. (I keep finding new uses for them.) I bought these because the price was good and the description said: The smart plug is designed for standard US outlets. Easily fit two mini plugs in one socket. This claim turned out to be untrue, so I returned them and ordered a different brand that I already owned and that I knew would fit two to an outlet. Because this feature was important to me, I immediately checked to see if two of these plugs would fit in the same outlet before I tried configuring them, so I cant say anything specific about how easy they are to set up and actually use. However, Ive purchased a variety of smart plugs brands, and Ive never had a problem with any of them. All of the individual smart plugs that I own work with the Smart Life app and have similar functionality. (I believe that the manufacturers are all using the same chips.) Smart plugs have only a few distinguishing features, such as size, amperage, appearance, and whether they have extra features such as USB ports. These plugs are rated for 10 amps and can be used for lamps and devices that dont draw much power. If you plan to use a smart plug with electric heater, air conditioner, and or other power-hungry device, look for one that is rated for 15 or 16 amps. As long as you buy your smart plugs from a vendor that allows easy returns (such as Amazon, as opposed to eBay) and test them right away, theres not much risk of losing your money. When people do have difficulty setting smart plugs up, its usually because they dont understand that the devices need to be on a 2.44 GHz wifi band and that you have to connect your phone to this band while configuring. Once youve configured one smart plug, its pretty easy to configure other plugs, even if theyre different brands. Of course, the documentation on this plugs is often lacking, but there are lots of videos on YouTube that explain the process. I gave these plugs three stars (average) because the description is clearly wrong, but they probably would have worked fine. If youre looking for inexpensive smart plugs and dont care whether the plug blocks the other receptacle in the outlet, these could be a great buy (but shop around because prices on smart plugs are dropping rapidly). For me, it was worth paying a little more to have the flexibility to use two plugs per outlet. (Afterthought -- it might be possible to use one of these plugs and a 2-prong lamp plug in the same outlet. I didnt try that. However, the product description says that you can use two miniplugs in the same outlet, which is what I needed and which is unfortunately not the case.)

I got half of them to work and the other half never did connect. The process to connect is complicated. I had one of the plugs right next to the modem and it could not find the internet through the app. I would not purchase these ever again. Save your money.

It was easy to set up. My only thing is that one of the outlets is always on. So I could only use three of them to program on and off. Hate wasting that space. This was a four-star review now Im changing to a 2. One of the plugs have completely stopped working. Of course, its the one to my main Christmas tree. Havent had these plugs long at all. Disappointed.

Well these are worthless. Suddenly just turns off all the outlets. Even if I unplug everything it will randomly turn everything off. Waste of money and less than a year old.

Works exactly as it should. Easy setup. Works with Google assistant very nicely. Overall wonderful product.

Great price and simple to set up.

I wont go into too much detail. I use these types of plugs for devices I want to power down or power cycle now and again without reaching for the cable...modem, router, Fiber ONT, indoor cameras, etc. Theyve worked very nicely, in general. I own 4 of this brand and the one assigned to my Fiber ONT however, will just randomly turn off, no rhyme or reason. Its plugged into a UPS, so its not like I can blame a power surge or black/brownout. Ive checked Alexas history to make sure no one said any magic words by accident close to Turn off the Fiber Modem Plug. I checked the UPS software history to make that sure power didnt go out and drain it till it powered off while we were sleeping (It lasts 1hr + and I would know if lights went out that long anyway, even after going to bed). I even went so far as to check the app and scheduling to make sure there wasnt some schedule injected. I found nothing. The last scenario is a software updade? No. Firmware is the same as the day I got it. This has happened before, I just sort of ignored it as the plug being loose or something else, but this is now a pattern. The only thing left to think is that this plug is powering itself off, randomly, for no reason. Time to check the warranty!

Amazing! Works perfectly with Alexa you can control it from your phone!

Good product easy to install and connects to both Alexa and Google Assistant

There really nice takes a bit as far as setup to work the way you want but after doing so there amazing I use them everyday super convenient
