> 3 dayIm not sure what the issue is for other reviewers, but I purchased one of these and it works so well I bought another one. I did not download any separate app, the app that I use for indoor lights and things actually noticed the stake right away and connected it. Ive been able to set timers, set up scheduling based on astronomical stuff, etc. I dont use an Alexa or Google Home because I dont like voice control, but my app does have that functionality so I assume it would work just as easily. I have had no issues putting in any type of plug, either... One reviewer said that only indoor plugs worked, but all of my outdoor extension cords and outdoor cables all plug in easily with enough space to use all outlets if I want. I have it hooked up to a transformer for pathway lights in the backyard, and its set up for my porch lights (Edison LED string lights) in the front yard. I have added holiday lights to it as well. This has been easily the best option I have found for outdoor smart power. Its better than some of my indoor outlets. Unfortunately, it is not weatherproof for in-use, so I am fitting plastic boxes around them to further protect them from rain. That would be my ideal product, but no smart plug that Ive found has the in-use rain cover. It would also be great if I could control the outlets separately, or at least by side... But that is something that the indoor ones still struggle with too. This is perfect otherwise, and, for the price, it cant be beat.

> 3 dayJust received and set it ip. This smart plug looks solid. Default connection method doesn’t work for me, thus one star off. Switching to EZ mode (via AP) works for me. Works only Alexa not Google which is a pity. Lucky I have both so that’s fine for me. Might update this review for durability.

Greater than one weekThis is being used to control my Christmas lights. It has been rained on and is still working. It was easy to download the app on my iPhone that allows me to turn on my lights with my phone, or set up schedules for when I want the lights to turn on/off, or even use Amazon Alexa to turn the on/off via voice. There are 6 outlets, all of which have a plastic door/cover to protect unused outlets. This is really a great way to control my Christmas lights.

> 3 dayIt does work. Not sure how water proof it will be with things plugged in as there is nothing covering the plugs. Also I was hoping that each outlet would have been individually controllable. All 6 outlets are on or off. Cant control each one seperately. Other than that it seems to work good.

> 3 dayThis this is garbage. I just spent 2 hours trying to hook it up. The instructions are garbage, it will not connect to wifi nor an iPhone. Go to the store and buy 1 that isn’t from this maker. Garbage, hot stinky garbage.
