Wifi Smart Plug Compatible with Alexa & Google Assistant, Wireless Mini Smart Switch Outlet Socket, Remote Control Your Devices Anywhere, Voice Control with Echo & Google Home, No Hub Required, 2 Pack

I have tried several other smart plugs, but this one is the best. And it is the lowest cost I found on Amazon. It also has a ground pin on the plug, which the other name brand units I have do not. Very easy to set up (once you chuckle at the translations), and completely reliable in the few weeks I have had them running. I will not buy the other guy's product again. I have not set these up with my Amazon Echo so I can't report on that part, but using the iPhone app to set a schedule has been a simple task.

The wireless plugs were easy to install using the app. The worked right away and integrated with Alexa. My only problem was a small one. I wanted to add the app to other devices in the house. It was impossible to search for in the Apple App Store. I had to use the small QR code in the docs to locate the app each time.

I had these working with my WiFi and the Home Life App, which you have to download, very quickly. After that I was able to link it to my Google Home Mini. Great set up. Also works with Alexa. The small instruction booklet only has instructions for Alexa, but it was easy to just log in to Google Home and add it also. It works best with lamps and simple on-off switches. It did not work with my coffee maker because of the push button on and off switch. If I want my app or Google to control my coffee maker, I will have to get a smart appliance.

The specs for this plug on Amazon indicate 110-220v. However, the actual label on the plug states that the olug is only rated to 125V. This means that if I were to plug it into a 220V outlet, it would burn.I contacted customer support and asked for a clarification. They assured me that the plugs are rated 110-220V. So, I took these plugs overseas and tried them.They work perfectly on a 220V outlet..! The only suggestion I would make to the manufacturer is to offer different types of 220V plugs that match overseas outlets. (There are several offered on AliExpress).Enjoy!

I followed all the instructions to the letter and failed in my ultimate goal of Alexa integration with these "smart plugs" So far this has cost me over 4 hours of my life. I downloaded the "Smart Life" App as instructed. Registered with the Chinese web site setting up an account and password. I attempted to set up 1 of my four plugs. The app provided no feedback for progress through the setup process despite the fact that there is a listing of those steps in the lower right portion of the screen, all you get is a graphic that spins clockwise and counts up to 100% so you can see your life ticking away. After the graphic hit 100% the screen flashed a note that the connection timer has timed out. I read in the instructions that the device running the app, in my case an iPhone, the plug and you router should be as close together as possible... I made attempt 3 through 5 with the plug and the phone sitting on top of the WIFi router still with no success.The next day I went on line to review steps others have taken and checked the Smart Life app to see if I had missed something. There was a bulletin (their title for a message) that someone with an iPhone 6 in Jakarta had signed into the account I had just setup 12 hours earlier. I immediately changed my password on the account. Now with that little ray of doubt lingering I logged in and changed my password again, logged out and back in again to be sure all was working properly. I stacked my plug and phone on top of the WiFi router and started again. Got the failure to connect notice 3 more times. After the third failed to connect notice I saw that, in fact, the plug was registered and operational. I tried my other three plugs and on the third attempt, despite the "failure to connect" warning, they connected and were operational. I then followed the instructions to connect the plugs to Alexa and was met with more failures. The first part of the process is to link your amazon Alexa account with your Smart Life account. During this process you are redirected to another web site that has a XX. addition to the smart life site (taua or something like that) several attempts to link the account failed due to a "wrong user id or password error" I tripple checked my user id and password, I logged out of the Smart Life app and logged back in successfully and used exactly this information to complete the link failed again. I changed my password with smart life, logged back in and failed to link again. I gave up for a while and after about an hour checked my Alexa app and to my amazement found that it had connected! Then I tried to connect to Alexa and my luck did not change. After several failed attempts to connect Alexa with the plug I decided to try different combinations of readying the plug for detection the last one was to hold the power button for 20 seconds and plug it in while still holding the power button the power light on the plug was now glowing dimly and Alexa found it! Ii t still does not work with Alexa. The Alexa app reports that 1) Device is not responding or 2) server unresponsive. The Smart Life app provides a "Bullitin" that it experienced a failed voice activation attempt.The Smart Life app gives you an email address to request help.... No response yet. Based on my security concerns, and my experience so far I am thinking that these plugs are going to find their way back to Amazon and I'll go find a better alternative.

Small (compact), lightweight, very responsive, ultra easy to setup. Companion app is easy to use as well, and I definitely love that it has native IFTTT capabilities too (not all smart plugs have this.)There have been some people complaining about the setup process... I would recommend to follow all the instructions on the manual, including the part that says that you should be close to your router. I set up one about 80 feet away from the router and although there was WiFi signal, it failed the first time. I moved closer (around 60 feet away from the router this time) and it worked, although it took almost a minute to complete the setup. For the second unit, I set it up just 4 feet way from the router and the device connected almost instantly; full setup process lasted less than 20 secs. After setup, I placed one 80 feet away and the other 20 feet away from the router, and both work perfectly fine.READ THE INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL!!! :-)UPDATE: Dropped two stars because (1) if it cannot connect to the WiFi once powered, the connection attempt times out really quick and it never connects to the WiFi; and (2) it does not keep the previous power state. Let me explain myself... Imagine the scenario were you lost power at home due to a blackout, so both your router and your smart plugs loose power. By the time that power was lost, the smart plugs were ON. Once power is restored, your router takes around 1 minute before it boots up and WiFi connectivity is available. By this time, the smart plugs have timed out their connection attempt and they just sit there OFF and never connect to the WiFi; you have to unplug and replug the device in order to go over the WiFi connection cycle again. And, instead of turning themselves ON once power was restored, which was the state in which they were before the blackout, they stay OFF. I have smart plugs from other brands with this capability of resuming their previous state once they are plugged to a power source or electricity is restored.
