I recently purchased an Amazon Echo and am converting my home to a smart home. I have been purchasing these SmartPlug to control my lights and they work perfect. No need to buy a hub or anything like that. You just connect them to your WiFi, name them, discover them in your Amazon Echo app, and then you are good to go. Just say "Alexa, turn on my living room plug" (as an example) and it goes on. I have been using them for over a month now and have not had a single issue.

This is a review of a free product received from TP-LINK as part of the review program.
Better than a basic timer. These TP-Link Smart Plugs can be controlled on my phone, even when I'm miles away. We often travel so, having something like this that I can check & manage on my phone, gives me more peace of mind. You do need to download the KASA app on your iphone/smartphone to get it to work. Once downloaded on my phone, I just follow the KASA app instructions re: when to plug in the Smart Plug & connecting it with my phone's wi-fi setting (pic 01). The Smart Plug home setting will appear, when everything's synced correctly. At this point, the Smart Plug can now set with whatever electronic device you want it to turn on or off, according to your schedule.
I wanted the Smart Plug to turn off my humidifier automatically. I plugged my humidifier into the Smart Plug first. Then, I set the Timer to 1 minute to turn it off (see pic 02). When I started the Timer, I can see the time counting down to zero. At zero, the KASA app goes back to the home setting and turns off the Smart Plug, which effectively shuts off my humidifier. You can also schedule the times for your home device to turn on or off at certain days of the week. This Smart Plug makes things convenient to control your lights, sprinklers, and other home devices, during times when you're away from home.
Greatly recommended.

One of my best tech purchases in a while.. Easy to setup.. Can track usage daily or weekly.. Schedule to turn on and off..
Missing a couple of features that would have made this even better.. 1. Export the usage data to excel or something.. and 2.Option to reset the usage data(instead of having to do a factory reset)

The great thing about this product is that it works with Amazon Echo. I connected this smart plug to my A/C and now I turn it on and off with voice command, I don't need the remote from the A/C. Also it supports 220V (I took it to Perú) and plugged it in and works perfectly. So for those who intend to take this smart plug to places that only supports 220V, I asure It will work flawlessly.

My only complaint with this model is that it sometimes prevents me from plugging in other things at the same outlet. I can still plug in a regular-size cord / extension cord, but anything larger than that is either a tight squeeze or no fit. I've tried the smaller "lite" plugs, but I prefer the energy monitoring feature. I wish they made a "lite" size with the energy monitoring feature.

I was very happy with how easy it was to install, and I love being able to turn a light on or off when not home. It is great, because I can turn on lights when my Ring doorbell has activity. Have not needed to do this yet, but tested it out.

The plug functions great; however it does cover both wall outlet plugs. The energy tracking seems to work well. I like the Kasa app as well.

The plug is very simple to set up. I had it out of the box and working in 10 minutes. I like how I can see how much energy is being used by whatever is plugged in.

I have purchased 5 of these plugs. They are great. Easy to install, easy to program and extremely reliable. I have them all set up with my lights and on timers, and am able to access them through my electronic speaker devices and smart phones. Especially great if one is traveling because you can reprogram them from just about anywhere and check to make sure they are working. I have had absolutely no problems with these plugs.

I currently don't use the smart function where I have it set up. I've only used one to gauge the power use of my entertainment system (TV,PC,etc). May not be 100% but it gives me an idea of the power usage and in effect causes me to reduce or control the usage.

When the brand of smart plug that I already had was no longer available at Best Buy, I purchased this one based on price and features. As i recall, no reviews were yet available. It is working just fine. I use it for remote on/off control only, so can't comment on the additional functions.

The product is great! It allows you to control your devices on a set schedule or anytime when away from home. It has helped me in the mornings to start boiling the water for my french press and it turns the lights on before I get home from work.
