Smart Plugs, YoLink 1/4 Mile Worlds Longest Range Smart Plug Compatible with Alexa, IFTTT 10A Smart Home Plug Mini Outlet, Remote Control Home Appliances from Anywhere, 4 Packs, YoLink Hub Included

I bought 3 of these to use for some temporary lighting. The setup was extremely fast and easy; it only took a few seconds. While I dont plan for these to be permanent, they look good and would not be an eye sore if they were. Definitely a good buy.

1. Implementation could not be simpler. Scan the barcode on the device with your phone, give the device a name and assign it to a room, hit the bind device to network button in the app, then press the set button once and, voila, the device is active on your network. 2. Usefulness - I have my washing machine plugged into this device and, in the event of a leak, the nearby Yolink leak detector directs Yolks shutoff valve to turnoff the water main, and this plug cuts electricity to the washing machine (my concern is that a flood come come from either, say, a hose breaking OR from a clogged drain within the washing machine; thus, the need for this plug). The app then notifies me via text, email, iOS notification that a leak was detected and the power to the washer has been cut (and the Yolink Siren Alarm also goes off. Gee, I probably know whats going on by now, huh! :). 3. Energy Monitoring - Easy to read graph shows power usage. I highly recommend this device. Exceptional quality and value.

I first heard about YoLink products when I was shopping for a home security system that was I expensive yet effective. Thank goodness I found YoLink! After using their very easy to install products I decided to see what else they sold. Their smart plugs work great with the hub and it is so easy to set a schedule for the lights to turn on and off when I am away. I like the fact that there is a central hub... Ive used other brands smart plugs that dont require a hub; however, unfortunately newer wifi routers constantly change channels and frequencies, thereby cutting off the connection to the smart plugs, rendering them useless. I own four YoLink smart plugs as well as the siren alarm, door / window sensors, smart plug remote and motion sensor, and I am extremely happy with my purchases. I will gladly order from YoLink again and have recommended this company to my neighbors as well. Great integration, easy set up, inexpensive and, most importantly, effective! I look forward to seeing what other products YoLink has in store and would highly recommend this product..

These portable electrical outlets work really well, just like all YoLink products. Easy to setup, easy to use, nothing but smooth sailing. You can setup a schedule for when these outlets are ON/OFF. You can also turn them ON/OFF via the app you install on your phone, from anywhere you have an Internet connection. They also have an ON/OFF physical button on the side of the outlet.

3 days after returning window came and gone the unit stopped working Cannot get it connected anymore

As with all YoLink products, this plug is extremely easy to setup...much easier than say competing WiFi plugs. Scan the code on the plug and it is added to your YoLink hub. After that plug it in and control from your iPhone, iPad or Android device. I am using several of these to control seasonal window candles in 12 windows. Using the app all are set as part of the same scene. Then the scene is turned on at 4PM and then turned off at 9 PM. Works perfectly!

Sure... besides the low price.... its the extreme range and ease of installation that make YoLink great for me. And the fact that YoLink integrates so well with Amazon Alexa. And I havent even tried the extra benefits of IFTTT yet. This is good stuff.

The customer service for this company has been really great, but the over all experience tells me that their quality control is rather poor, which is why I have to give them 2 stars. For the following 3) orders, I have experienced an issue with each one. Order 1) Hub - The hub I received logs on and offline frequently, it is currently being replaced by the company. The troubleshooting for the hub is relatively simple - turn it off, turn it back on again, put it on an ethernet cable and try again. If this does not resolve the issue, theyll replace it. Order 2) Door sensors - They sent water sensors instead, but did replace them and sent a shipping label to return the wrong item. Order 3) Smart Plug Mini - of the two received only one worked out of the package. Overall, I like the app and its ease of use; I do wish there were some features like setting times on the alarms for the door sensors. I think that the items do work well together, and you could really get a nice system set up for yourself... But I would beware the issues Ive described above.

turned on my aquarium lights without problems on vacation!

Im generally quite satisfied with YoLink products. The range is great; connectivity on all devices (of which I now have 8) is above average and the features on such devices such as the temperature/humidity sensors are excellent. Regrettably, the single smart plug I own does not live up to the standard set by its sibling devices. It loses connectivity often, despite its being less than 20 feet from the YoLink hub. Sometimes, when I activate the device with the software, Ill receive a message through the app that the device is disconnected, but the plug will still carry out my command. Other times, quite randomly, the message regarding the lack of connectivity is spot on and device status remains unchanged. Ill explore YoLinks other devices in hopes they are better than this smart plug. I may need to return this one, though, since it is a central component of what I consider a critical automation function - preventing pipes from freezing during cold spells.
