Leviton DW15A-1BW Decora Smart Wi-Fi Plug-in Outlet, Works with Amazon Alexa, No Hub Required

Too easy to set up and works straight out of the box. A little more expensive build quality product

I needed to replace my smart plugs since my new router now only used a 5ghz signal. I can confirm that this works!!

I am a newbie to home automation and wanted to ease my way into it. I have a tower of lights that has individual lamps that need to be turn on each time. It is a pain to use them so they dont get used much. The tower has a standard plug cord so i decided to try the Leviton Plug-in and see if i could turn them on at once with Alexa and/or an app. Set-up was really easy. I plugged in the unit to the outlet, plugged in the lamp cord, downloaded the Leviton App and followed the instructions on the app. The entire process took less that 5 minutes. Once the app/device was set up I went to the Alexa app and linked the plug-in. This too was very easy. Now all i have to do is tell Alexa to turn on/off the lights and voila, it does. I also liked the ability to set up timed events on the Leviton app. Now if have the lights go on/off when I am away so people think there is someone home. Based on this experience I am sold on home automation and will be ordering 600W dimmers for my Kitchen and bedrooms. Leviton has made a high quality device that is very easy to set-up and even easier to use.

Works well within the app. Had no issue pairing with the Amazon Echo.

Excellent product. Makes integrating your existing home lighting with an Amazon Alexa simple, without the need to spend extra money on special bulbs and lights. Easy to set up and works great! Highly recommend.

Leviton is a company that does not stand by their products very well and expects contractors to eat a loss at their expense. We have 15 timers ltb 30 and ltb 60 on 4 different jobs buzzing extremely loudly. DO NOT BUY THEIR PRODUCT. EXTREMELY BAD PRODUCT. We are expected to travel to the job sites, take down the numbers and sizes, Leviton sends us replacements and then we have to do the work at our own expense to swap these items out. Well screw that, if they cant stand by their product enough to reimburse us professionals for our lost time, we have the right to send our business to someone else. After 39 years in business, I will no longer buy or refer any one to any Leviton products. Buy P&S. Much better equipment and company.

Works as expected. Great for applications such as turning your yard lights on in the morning before walking to the (external) garage, turning them off when you leave. Security for the family without any re-wiring. Keep in mind that you need a constant link to the WiFi for it to work correctly, and for that reason it will siphon off some power constantly, worse if it has a weak signal (so for this reason it may not work if your external garage is too far away). I like wired, tried-and-true technologies and applications best for around the house, but this definitely adds some versatility for the non-electrically minded. And even for an (electrical) Engineer, its great for temporary applications while I decide what to make permanent. You know, turning lights on while away, Christmas lights, etc. Good product. Glad to not need a hub.

This is the easiest Wi-Fi capable device I have set up yet. Once you download the app it walks you through the setup of the device easily, it took me less then 5 minutes to get this up and running. I was using a Wemo Smart plug in my living room which was either losing connection with Alexa or it would take Alexa roughly 5 seconds to turn on/off the light. This was extremely easy to set up with Alexa and I have had no problems, the light turns on/off immediately every time.

I purchased the Leviton DW15A-18W plug in module along with a DW6HD-1BZ Wall Dimmer module, which I will review separately. I am a big fan of the Leviton product line, almost every switch in my home is a Leviton switch so I was excited to find these little modules that can be controlled by my Alexa unit. I have purchased a number of other similar controlled devices for my home but this little beauty was super easy to get online and working. I was up and running and integrated with my Amazon Echo in minutes. The real difference maker with this device is that it does not require a centralized hub like so many others, which will add price and complexity to your smart home design. The DW15A-18W runs on my existing Wifi as opposed to using it own network like so many other similar products. You can also control all the device from a separate app the Leviton provides for free. Following the provided instructions in the box I was able to quickly get the module on my Wireless network and after installing a simple skill for the Amazon Echo I was able to control it via voice command. I particularly enjoy the portability of the module as I am able to move it around my house quickly and easily for whatever purpose I need at the time. I can’t recommend this item enough if you plan building your own smart home network of devices.

The product functions as advertised and works well with my echo show. It takes some electrical knowledge to install so if you don’t feel comfortable installing them, call an electrican.
