FRANKEVER Mini Smart Plug,WiFi Outlet Works with Alexa Google Assistant, No Hub Required, ETL and FCC Listed Only 2.4GHz WiFi Enabled Remote Control WiFi Smart Socket

I’m updating my review. Previously, I thought these were great but it hasn’t even been a year and they don’t connect and time out all the time on the app. Do not recommend.

It took me a good bit of reading to figure this out... there are TWO DIFFERENT MODELS being reviewed by Amazon Customers and apparently they offer very different features and end up with very different results. There is one particularly bad review here, it is for a DIFFERENT model than the one that I ordered. The bad review is for the model that is 10Amps and has a USB Port on the side. I ordered the model that DOES NOT have the extra USB port on the side, but has a 15Amp power delivery. I believe this is the reason for the very different results. I suspect something about the USB port causes the mosquito noise that the other reviewer is getting, and I suspect that most of the negative points in that review are about things that are not present in the single outlet, no USB model that I ordered. With that in mind, here is the review of the product I received: The Frankever Power Monitoring Voice Control Mini Timer Smart WiFi Outlet Plug 2.4G Hz Network High Load 15A Phone App Remote Control Smart Plug Compatible with Alexa, Google Home and IFTTT, No Hub (2 Pack) has exceeded my expectations in every way. It is a no-brainer!!! My wife wanted these to take control of some always-on products for our sunroom. By using these outlets, she could turn them on and off and also monitor power usage and integrate them with Amazon Alexa. It is very convenient using Alexa voice controls to power up these products that are on the Frankever power strip. The design has some positive points as well. By stretching the plug to each side, you are able to (on some power strips and on standard outlets) plug it in without obscuring the other outlet. As I mentioned above, I did not experience the mosquito noise that another reviewer talked about, and this may be because the 15 Amp model that I have doesnt have the USB port on the side. The Smart Life App is both fun to play with and very useful. Im not sure what the other app does, but definitely try the Smart Life App and see how you like it. The price is great. Thats another thing that is an excellent feature of this outlet, you get TWO for this price and that makes them VERY, VERY economical. I would absolutely recommend this outlet to anyone looking to add an app controlled outlet to their home. It is a great starter package that is easy to use and useful at the same time - and a great price as well!!! Thank you for reading my review. I take my reviews very seriously and I think it is super important for us to share our experiences on Amazon so that we can help each other out to spot products that dont live up to their claims, and ALSO to share great products with one another so we can find the right products to make our lives easier. I feel like the Amazon review process is a great way to share this information and I try to do the best job I can when I write a review. I am not perfect though, so if there is anything I have left out, or that you have a question for me about the product or my review, PLEASE feel free to visit my Amazon Profile and e-mail me at the address there and I will try to get back to you as quickly as possible! Thank you for reading my review and I hope it has been helpful.

Love these. Super easy to set up, especially if you already have the Smart Life app on your phone. Ours works great with Smart Life and Google Assistant/Google Home. I really appreciate that these are designed not to block adjacent outlets too.

wouldn’t connect

This is great good quality and synced right up only grip is me not thinking and getting the round one that blocked the other outlet

Buyer beware this does not come with the remote shown, so if you dont have a smartphone this is worthless.

I was looking for a plug that can be controlled automatically because I figured that I can make my home appear occupied and this 2 pack seemed like a no brainer. The price was so cheap so I was not expecting too much but I was pretty surprised when I gave it a try. This device was simple to set up and they add a USB port to every plug where this is placed. I do not really use the Alexa feature but I do use the remote control option through the app which helps me add more custom options such as schedules to the devices that are connected. I plugged in my Christmas tree to one of these and set a schedule that automatically turned it off during the morning and on during the day. Right now I just have a couple of lamps connected to them with a random schedule that makes it seem like there is always someone at my home. There really are no cons with this product, it does not block the other ports and, like I mentioned before, it adds a USB plug. Overall great product that does not really make any compromises. There really is no feature that I felt was left out of this device. The price is affordable and I think believe I get an awesome deal. I hope this review helps you make an educated decision with your purchase.

This little plug outlet was inexpensive and does what it says it will do: its smart. It works well with the app to turn on and off, possibly on a schedule or for a period of time. It works with google home just fine. Not much else to complain about. I guess I wish the android app and the name that you have to pick when selecting it under google home where the same. That was a bit confusing.

Not for Google home mini!

Bought this for my outlet where I decorate for Halloween and Christmas and also for my decorations on my porch .. works great love this
