Wifi Smart Plug Set of 2 Mini Smart Outlet Compatible with Alexa Remote Control By Smart Phone from Anywhere Anytime (2 Packs)

SUPER easy to hookup. I bought 2 sets of these for my Echo and in literally 20mins I had all the christmas stuff on them so when I walk in the door and say Alexa, Merry Christmas everything turns on. before bed I say Alexa, Cancel Christmas and it all gets turned off. I also setup some simpler routines to turn off just certain lights and leave others on etc. these are GREAT. they all basicll work the same, so just shop the deals and read the reviews....some are better than others but they all setup the same prety much, I have 4 of these and one other and they all lace nice all on the same Echo DOT (which is EXACTLY the same as the Echo except it sounds better and mosre bass, but thats it. Dont let anyone tell you different, theyre lying or simply dont know) if you dont need this for powering music etc then save the money and get the dot, if you want it for music get the echo for its louder speaker and bassier sound. Those or the only two differences. NOTHING more. Ive heard all kinds of stuff that Only the Echo allows calling and the DOT doesnt etc. /WRONG...they both do if you have two of them. if you only have one you will NOT have a calling, pging or intercom type of use on either one.

I bought these as a gift for a friend. When I tried to set them up, I found that his Spectrum-installed router had assigned the exact same name to both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi bands. for some reason, the band selected always defaults to the 5GHz. I was unable to find a way around the issue. I kept them, and they work perfectly on 2.4GHz at my home.

Works pretty food but sometimes you have to readd it to your phone cause it looses connection to the app

Work great with Alexa and with the button on the side for those rate occasions when wifi is down. Easy to install, but you have to have the phone VERY close to the device when youre first connecting for the app to find it. After installed, works perfectly. The only problem Ive encountered is if youre turning on more than one thing, you have to wait until Alexa is completely done processing the first command and then a few seconds after before you can command her to turn on something else. I would love to have these on everything in my house!

I used them for a lamp in my living room and a wall light in my bedroom. Very easy to use and works great so far. I connected them with Echo. Good thing is that you can name each plug whatever name you want. So I simply named them as “livingroom light” and “bedroom light”. Now when I come home I just tell Alexa to turn on the livingroom light for me. Never need to walk to the light switch in the dark anymore(yay!).

I love these!! The directions weren’t super helpful but I figured it out easily enough. Download the app for the plugs first then use your log in from that app to connect to Alexa. Super awesome to say, “Alexa turn on the lamp!” And she does! Haha

Summary Pros: -Google Home compatible after downloading the SmartLife app and linking to your assistance -No need for additional steps/requests (turn on x outlet works immediately) -quality outlets at a competitive price -No lag in turning on (though my Home is near the outlets so perhaps distance may affect this in further rooms) Cons: -only one Smart plug will fit in a traditional 2 outlet setup (however you CAN stilluse the 2nd outlet with a traditional plug) Full review: Being brand new to home assistants (specifically Google Home) I purchased this Smart Plug set of 2 as a trial based on the price. I do not have a hub and have heard mixed reviews of hubless items- specifically that they are not as easy to direct and require an additional request. This turned out to not be the case and Im definitely ordering more! First: packaging is simple yet effective. Each comes in its own box with instructions, paired in a little bag. Setup was simple. I decided to test one on my fish tank light. Once plugged in it immediately entered setup mode (instructions for reset to use elsewhere are of course provided) then I downloaded the SmartLife app through Google Home. After a simple click to add a new device it located the outlet and I was able to name it. This was the big test. I had heard non-hub devices require you to ask Google to access the app before requesting to turn on the device but this was not necessary. You simply ask to turn on x light and immediately it does so. Im very pleased at this product and highly recommend it! Just keep in mind that you can only use one smart plug in an outlet as the diameter is too large to fit two (however this DOES NOT block you from being able to use the other outlet with a traditional plug). Smart home, on a budget!

No major issues, it is just tuna in water. I am ready for some other flavor.

As long as you can follow directions, this product works well. When integrating this with Amazon Echo devices, it does take a few steps to set these up. However, once set up, they are excellent.
