CMARS Smart Plug, ZigBee Switch Mini Smart Outlet Works with ST, Alexa, Echo (4th gen) Echo Plus (2nd) Google Home, Works as a Range Extender, Hub Required （2 Pack）

Worked great for a short time. I had these for maybe 1-2 months, which worked great. However, both stopped working at almost the exact same time. I couldnt even use the manual button to control the power. I now need to buy another one to replace it, so I am going to find one from a different brand, which will hopefully last longer.

Great value for the money. Works every time and very easy set up!

Switch integrated quickly into my deconz / phoscon / HomeSeer setup. Good response times and works as a zigbee repeater. Also using the hue dimmer switch to control them in my setup.

I purchased for use in my home assistant automation. This unit works as expected, not issues at all. Will purchase a couple more for a few other devices I wanted to control. It would be nice if it reported voltage consumption, but for the price I cant complain.

I like zigbee products because it is a mesh network and it doesnt take up bandwidth from the wifi. As I build out my zigbee network it will become stronger and stronger. Soon my network will overtake my neighborhood and then the neighborhood coffeehouse. I will be the envy of this city.

Very good price for set of 2. Z-wave so they work perfectly with Samsung SmartThings. Easy to connect.

April 2021 - When I received the plugs, they were a different brand, and didnt work with SmartThings. Oddly, they came with a card that referenced to reach out to CMARS for support, but CMARS confirmed these were NOT their plugs. ---- May 2021 - CMARS offered to replace the fake plugs (branded Gosund) with the correct CMARS plugs, and apologized for the inconvenience (which was Amazons fault as the fulfiller, not CMARS). Well, the new plugs came, and they work a treat. Right out of the box, theyre as simple to set up with SmartThings as I could hope for. 30-seconds from out of the box, to controlling my lamp with ST. Definitely recommend buying from CMARS if you want good service.

The plugs seem to work well so far - Im using them for a couple of small fans. Worked fine with Zigbee2MQTT - just set it to allow devices to join and plugged them in, then they joined instantly. They show up as eWeLink SA-003 in Zigbee2Mqtt and Home Assistant.

I have an odd C-shaped apartment layout with lots of 2.4GHz interference (mainly WiFi from neighbors and lots of walls) that’s really not very conducive to a good ZigBee network. So, I purchased these to help bring my living room (on one end of the house) in range to my SmartThings hub (on the other end), which happens to be in a bit of a radio shadow for my SmartThings Hub. I found some spots that happened to link up my living room to the hub through a few hops and now my devices are up and running again. It’s a little slow right now so I’m going to get even more of these to make the mesh network even more robust.

I bought these to complete my ZigBee Mesh Network that was not very strong for a light switch in the basement. Added one on the opposite side of the basement, and another at the top of the stairs and now I have no issues with the light switch. Going to add a couple more for the main and upper floor.
