Wyze Plug, 2.4GHz WiFi Smart Plug, Compatible with Alexa, Google Assistant, IFTTT, No Hub Required, Four-Pack, White

I was using TPlink outlets, much the same size & design. But in the bedroom, a bit away from the router, I had issues with it staying on line. This Wyse outlet has been reliable from day one. Ive had it for months now and have it programmed to go on automatically at night, and I tell Google to turn it off once Im in bed. No issues.

Took forever to install. Even with online chat help. I replaced my router and had to reinstall. It didnt work. Chatted for help and after lots of botched tries she told me to push the button on the side of the plug. What a waste of time.

The concept for the product is good and it is useful... while it works. Unfortunately, two out of 3 of the plugs I bought broke after a couple of months of use. I would recommend to stay away from this product at least for the foreseeable future.

The only reason I am rating it 4 out of 5 instead of 5 was the fact it cannot connect to 5GHz Wireless networks. I know it states clear as day that its a 2.4GHz WiFi Smart Plug, but its 2022 and most products with WiFi capabilities should connect to 5GHz networks. The Smart Plug works as it should. You can power on any appliance or electronic device from anywhere you can get an internet connection. So far so good. I will be sure to add more after I do some thorough testing.

These things are great, as are most Wyze products, and priced right. A must have for holiday lighting. Set times for lights to come on and forget about them. If you need to turn them on or off manually, they can be controlled in the app.

Love the product now that it works. Updating the firmware failed 10 or more times on two of my smart plugs. The other two updated fine. I use one for my gardening lights. Plants grow best with 18 hours on and 6 hours of darkness, so the plugs allow me to create a schedule for my grow lights to be on.

I love Wyze products mostly and this one even fits in the outdoor boxes for a standard outlet. Timer functions are great, easy setup and great reliability!

Ive had this companies products for YEARS and they have worked great up until a few weeks back, when their cloud service either got hacked or broke for no reason. Then all my plugs and garage door openers stopped working. I didnt receive any emails or warning that they were going to perform an upgrade to their service, which leads me to believe that something got hacked. When their products work, they are GREAT! The interface and integration with Google Home works well. Ill keep using them, since they still seem to work, just hope the company stays in better communication with stuff next time they need to upgrade their end/software. Also, they dont have the best wifi, so make sure your plugs or garage door controller is pretty close. I have a mesh network on my property and havent had a plug, even with the devices sometimes showing a log signal.

It seems like every other day I have to go in and re-add one of these plugs to the app/network because it says its not available. Its not difficult to do, but if multiple go out at once, its difficult to see which one youre reconnecting to unless youre watching the flashing light patterns on each of them while going through the setup. Its just annoying to have to do this on a regular basis. When they do drop off, they still retain their schedule, so your lights will still turn on and off per the set schedule, but you lose the ability to manually turn them on/off with the app or with a connected assistant (google and alexa). Then, once you reconnect to them, if you dont do it the right way you lose the schedule for that plug and have to re-program that to get it to turn on/off automatically. Theyre easy to setup, configure, and manual button works fine if you can reach where these are plugged in. Firmware needed to fix the stability and reconnection on its own. My KASA plugs seem to not have this issue, whats so different in these?

I have been using Wyze products with my Alexa setup. They have very good price and all of them are working great. These plugs are a fantastic way to automatically turn on/off all kinds of dumb devices. Christmas trees, garage door, dehumidifier, air cleaner, for security in the shop, etc. My favorite use was after knee surgery, the doctor recommended the use of a water cooling ice pack for 20 minutes every hour. Using one of this devices + Alexa, it would do the job even when I was sleeping. Highly recommended
