> 3 dayBest part of these over many other smart plugs is the size! You can actually plug two into a standard outlet. Most of the others I have cover the second outlet which is just annoying. These are much more compact! They work just fine with Alexa. Follow set up instructions. I did find the initial wifi connection a bit tedious though. Not all of these were immediately recognized and I had to keep trying on a couple of them before theyd show up. Overall great voice integration and ability to integrate alarms and timers. But yeah mostly Id recommend these specifically for the size over other options.

> 3 dayI have added these to my collection of multiple smart plugs throughout my house and office through different companies/makers. This one seems to be working good so far. Was fairly easy to set up. The only glitch I had was trying to get it to connect to Alexa. Their app itself has a button to push to connect you to your Amazon account however I just got an error that said the app I was using was old and needed to be updated. That’s where it got stuck. Well all my apps are up-to-date so this was not the case. It would not let me proceed past this point to connect it to my Alexa system. So I bypass that part by going directly to the Alexa app and connecting the two apps from that direction which work just fine. Little glitch, but was able to work around it. The plug themselves seem to be working just fine so far. Overall a great product. Recommended.

> 3 daySYLVANIA Smart WiFi Plug WiFi plugs are a handy thing to have around nowadays. I have an Alexa home and she controls an awful lot of things. With these she can control more. I have set up smart plugs before as you might imagine. I had no issue-espresso with these at all and got a pair up and running to control two lamps as a pair. I found the installation easy and normal to what I’ve experienced before. This four pack is a bargain to me and as such and with an actual brand name, I do recommend them.

> 3 dayYou can see form my pictures that these plugs form Sylvania are very very similar to the latest TP Link Minis. Sylvanias plugs come in just a tiny bit wider but slightly less height. Both are rated for 15 Amps and the TP Link Minis seem to be priced about $3 less without sales than the current price on this product. Dont get me wrong, these function well and might be a fine choice by many. I however already have a home with more TP Link (Kasa) products than Sylvania with their App used to setup and control devices. Thanksfully Googles Home app brings everything together under 1 easy to control screen once setup. One other item to note is that these plugs seem to have a slightly louder audible tick sound when toggled on/off than the TP Link plugs. And if you push the button on your plugs to turn them on/off occasionally, I think these have a less preferable tactile feel to the push and clicking than the smooth and more silent press of the buttons on the TP Link plugs. Perhaps 1 edge these have on TP Link may depend on your preference on LED status lights. The TP Link plugs have an illuminated power logo on their plug side which is built into the push button. These plugs from Sylvania on the other hand, they dont have a light in the power button but there is a tiny LED on the face of the plug surface just near the edge which will illuminate a blue color when the plug is toggled on. So that might not matter based on where you place this but if this were at eye-level and out in the open, this would probably annoy me personally but when its not in line of sight, it would probably give off less glow in a pitch dark room than the light green glow of TP Links plugs. Overall much of this might be a moot point other than the physical size being preferable to most. Once you set these up, chances are youre using voice commands from Alexa or Google to control these or an app like Google Home because you have other devices by other companies. Its a good product but because it was just a tad more expensive than a competitor (which I think has a slight edge on design and function), I took off 1 star. If you already are in the Sylvania ecosphere of smarthome products or have an existing preference for their products, you cant go wrong with this choice.

> 3 dayOrdered these to help setup schedules for our interior lighting. Works great with the Sylvania app, but not with SmartThings (which is what Im already using with other smart devices) - that is the only reason for less than five stars. Easy to setup. Easy to use.

> 3 dayIt’s a pretty straight forward process IF you read the little manual and download the correct app. They work effortlessly once installed and recognized by the apps… groups or rooms is a whole other story. I like them very much and find us relying on smart items like this one more and more.
