These smart plugs are smarter than me!

Ur better off buying a manual timer. The timer on this product, doesnt always work. U can turn the light on/off from the app, that doesnt always work either.

Update : The customer service representative decided these were defective. They decided to send me the new replacement. I hope the new ones will work great as the company gives the lifetime warranty. I wanted vacation plug so it can turn on and off automatically without any app controls. But this one, whenever its automatically shut down, you need to turn the electricity back on from the app. Useless.

I bought this plug for its vacation mode. I wanted a lamp to randomly turn on and off to make it look like someone is home. This plug does randomly turn on and off when in vacation mode; however, the period is around an hour. Last month my house was burglarized. The burglar waited in his car in front of my house for 15 minutes, looking for activity, before breaking in. No burglar is going to wait outside a house an hour looking for activity. This vacation mode needs a period around 10 minutes to be useful. The Schedule mode only allows one on and one off time setting, so this doesnt meet my needs either. Update: after I posted this, Vont contacted me and told me they were going to add this feature to their product, but told me it may take a while. Gotta love that customer support, so I updated my rating 2 stars.

Bought two of these when I really only needed one but it was so much fun setting it up I immediately used the other one. Easy integration with Alexa great product.

The setup instructions weren’t that good for setting up schedule for auto on/off. I had to figure that out myself. When you tap on the outlet name in the app, don’t use schedule option. Instead use the rules tab on the main app screen to create a time for auto on and off. Other than that the outlets have been working good. The rules have been working perfectly.

This is good if you work late and dont want to come home to a dark house. You have to turn it off every night but will automatically come on at scheduled time every day.

Packaging was small and instructions clear and easy. Setup and installation was a literal breeze and start to finish couldnt have been more then 10 mins. I have always wanted to make the leap and purchase some smart plugs and now I am left to wonder what took me so long! Price is perfect for two. Such a modern day convenience that everyone should try out.

Vont support is one of the best Ive dealt with, they are very responsive and want their customers to be happy. While my particular issue was not fully resolved, I have a solution that is workable. I wish all customer service was like Vonts.

Overall the Alexa enable Vont plug is super easy, youll need to create a Vont account to link to the Alexa platform, then you can control on / off functionality, set timers, and specified on / off times for anything plugged into the smart plug.
