> 3 dayAs an entry level smart home device, this cant be beat!! Plug your floor lamp into it, you can turn it on-and-off from anywhere. Plug your old coffee maker into it, and its suddenly a smart coffee maker! Hook your crockpot to it, and you can turn it off while running errands! Put a box-fan in your window, and you can have it automatically turn on the fan when the outside temperature reaches a low level, turn it back off when the outside temperature reaches a high level. You can also set an automatic timer, after you turn it on, itll automatically turn off after any amount of time. Or, have it turn on and off at the same time of day. It has a side-button to manually turn on-and-off the device. You can disabled the side button to prevent small fingers from fiddling with it. Lastly, if you have smart switches, you can add rules to turn this on and off with the switch. Its like adding something to the circuit without having to rewire the house! (PS: Dont plug your modem/router into it, especially if you cant reach the plug!)

19-11-2024I have a light switch connected to an inconvenient outlet, so I plugged one in there, and a second to a lamp elsewhere, and programmed a rule that when the light switch one turns on the other turns on the lamp and it works perfectly ❤️

Greater than one weekVery compatible for Apple I phones. I really like the shape of the sockets and how easy they are to set up. I have some round smartlife smart sockets but they render the plugin next to them useless. The Treatlife sockets are a more compact design and allow other plugins to be used next to them. They are fine wifi without Alexa and the software is a little different but still very easy to use also. Its best to set them up before using them to allow visual line of sight to the pairing light that blinks bc it gets covered up by an overly large plug on a device. The timer feature on the software works very well and i use them on Aquarium lights and aquarium heaters. I time them for daily timing to reduce algae growth in my tanks. Great price for a well designed smart socket and software.

> 3 dayI have been using mechanical lamp timers for years and they never lasted long. Ive tossed a few when they developed an annoying tick. They are not easy to reprogram, bulky. This mini smart plug was the perfect solution if you have a smart phone. Easy to install, easy to program, and instant control no matter where you are. Great purchase. I have 4 of them and a smart switch now. Life is easier.

> 3 dayI liked these so much that I ended up getting two four-packs. I especially like that when you cut power to the plug, you can set it to default to on or off, or remember its last setting when power is resumed. This is useful when using the plug on an outlet that already has a mechanical switch attached. So for instance, the bedrooms in my house dont have ceiling lights, but do have light switches that control one outlet in the room. I plug the smart plug into the outlet, and then a lamp into the smart plug. Then I set the smart plug to default to on when power is resumed. Now, Im always able to turn the light on or off using the switch. And when it is on, I can then turn it off using the smart plug. This is nice, because other remotes Ive tried default to off only when power is cut and resumed, which makes it really annoying to use with a mechanical switch.

> 3 dayThis works just like the GE outlet that came with my Google Mini. Easy to use, just how it should be. The only issue I found is in the installation. In the Treatlife app, the outlet is found right away and pops up in a new window on the bottom. When I installed this way, I was unable to turn it on by the app, only by the physical button. Dont use that new window. You have to back out of that window. Install it manually, like you would any other device (with the + symbol). After installation, I was able to turn it on by the app, and the physical button. If you install like that, youll have no problems

> 3 dayI bought these plugs to run high wattage items. These plugs work extremely well, but I do not recommend them because it is very confusing to set up. The instructions are printed to that you need a magnifying glass to read them. Using our phone to set it to the internet took several attempts. Once you get it set up with Alexa, it works quite well. This is a good product, but setup is a nightmare. Of all our electrical devices we have, this was the most difficult to set up. This would be a lot easier if you could use the computer to set it up.

> 3 dayI am very happy with the treatlife smart plugs overall. They work great, connected very easily to the smartlife app which gave me access to the timers and control from my phone. Once set up Alexa found it automatically (I already had my smartlife account connected to Alexa). Voice controls work great, so far timers are working great and you can make several on and off events on the schedule based on time of day as well as day of the week in the smartlife app. One feature I really like, you can control the switch with the small button on the side. So if your internet goes down or you dont have your phone/Alexa nearby you can hit the button to turn on your device. My only complaint is it is pretty wide, this makes it tricky to use in some powerstrips, but on the wall it fits fine.
