> 3 daySo far so good. Setup was a snap, took less than 15 minutes to get two units up and running. Using these to control TVs used for digital signage at a school -- created a schedule for the desired hours and so far is working exactly as expected. The ability to set up once only sessions or simply turn on/off on demand -- even from a remote location -- is great for the times when theres an event outside regular school hours when the display being on would be nice. UPDATE 1/30/18 -- both units have started to operate on the schedules programmed. Connectivity is not an issue as the unit can be toggled on/off readily. But after multiple days of systems staying on overnight we need to find a more reliable solution.

> 3 dayThey work great! I love the schedule capability. Only problem is they are a little difficult to set up. Great Price at $15 each compared to others out there. Small footprint too.

Greater than one weekWorks as stated, wish I could use these to dim, but on/off is just fine as well Can not give 5 stars due to the fact this item blocks the other outlet on the wall.

> 3 dayPaired up easily. Set up a schedule to control some lamps, no additional fees or purchases. Works with Alexa. Only drawback is youre adding two more devices to your router. Which can be a problem for families or homes with multiple devices connected to the WiFi and cheap routers. Youre at the mercy of your WiFi network range as well. To no fault of the device, it is working perfectly.

> 3 dayI was really excited about getting these outlets. My room is really dark and I wanted a quick and easy way to turn on numerous lamps at once. The set up was relatively easy and when the outlets work it is great. The biggest problem is that one of my outlets will regularly just turn off, therefore turning off the lamp. Then I have to go back into the app and turn it back on. This is quite annoying and frustrating. The app is a little slow to load too. My other outlet in the same room does not have this issue though and has been great.

> 3 dayConvenient but feels like it is missing some functionality. Cant get it to pair with IFTTT which would be nice to be able to turn lights off when I leave the house. First order had a dud but the company was quick in shipping me out a new one. Great customer service.
