Kasa Smart Plug HS103P2, Smart Home Wi-Fi Outlet Works with Alexa, Echo, Google Home & IFTTT, No Hub Required, Remote Control,15 Amp,UL Certified, 2-Pack White

These worked fine and were easy to set up. You have to set them up in the Kasa app and then link them through the Alexa app. They worked fine with Alexa voice commands, but do do not appear in the Alexa app and therefore you can’t create multiple routines with them. They will only work one at a time which is fine for most, but I need them to turn off my lamps at the same time. I had to return them.

I really love these plugs. I have plugged them into lamps that dont have smart bulbs and fans that dont have WiFi integration. I havent had the issue with these reconnecting to WiFi that I have read about others having. I have had the WiFi go out multiple times and every time it comes back on they automatically connect without issue. The only thing I think would make them better it to have a USB port on the side but that is just a small thing that doesnt make or break this product.

There are only certain brands that will connect to the Ohm Connect program, and KASA is one of them. It was extremely easy to integrate into our home and with Google Home. The KASA home app does need to be downloaded. The one drawback to this plug is the size. It is large. They are designed to stack if you need to use 2 of them on a single outlet, but for me, it is still very bulky in size, which is why I rated it only 4/5 stars. I have had other brands that stop working after 6-9 months of use, but my KASA plugs are still working after 3+ years, so I can recommend them on their durability.

The product does what it says. It turns on or off if you click a button in the app. The app also allows scheduling. But the app does not seem to allow good control of the device (e.g., turn the socket on if a smart bulb installed on the same app is on), which to me is the main point of having a smart device. Since the device does not work with at least one other platform that allows this kind of smart programming (Smart Life app, that Ive been testing), I find its use case very poor in comparison with the competition. And it does not measure power consumption, another big minus. I saw good reviews of this product, including in the Wirecutter, but the limitations of the app are not clear from the product information webpage, so I returned this.

Heres an unconventional use of this product that can save you a few bucks: my hot water recirculation pumps built-in mechanical timer broke. Maybe it could be repaired, but for a few bucks this smart plug works even better. The pump is turned to always on, and I set a schedule in the Kasa app so it only runs exactly when needed. Also if Im off my usual schedule, I can turn on the pump from the app and set a timer for it to turn off automatically in 10 minutes. If youre buying a hot water recirculation pump, you can buy a model with a timer, or save ~$50 buying a model without a timer and use this smart plug which works better for less.

Other reviewers say it all. Very easy to setup and straightforward to use. Extremely responsive app. Worth every penny.

I did not like that I needed to get the Kasa App, you have to get the Kasa app then it syncs to Alexa app. If I knew this I would have purchased Paid more for the actual Alexa Plug. It works fine.

Easy enough to setup through the Kasa app. They just work! You can choose whether the ring of light around the built in power button stays on or not.

These were really easy to set up and work great! Even my Amazon echo dots detected them and connected easily. The only thing stopping me from giving them 5 stars is that you cant schedule a group of outlets in the app. You have to schedule each outlet individually within the group... annoying and somewhat defeats the purpose of having a group.

These plugs work....that’s it, they work. All of the TP Link smart home plugs and Switches work, and work flawlessly that I can see. The Kasa app is great, works flawlessly as well. I have 8 of these so far, and they are mixed in my home with wall switches (TP Link switch and 3 way switches) to all run with Kasa app that is TP link that then works with the Alexa Amazon Echos throughout the home. These things are truly plug and play. You plug them in, open the Kasa App, and add device and bam, its super easy to follow the directions and add to WiFi in the home. Then open Alexa App on the phone and all of these TP Link items are there in the Smart Home section. It just works, and works flawlessly. The entire system, I add Routines and Scenes and you can do all kinds of cool things. In the Alexa App the Routines, I can turn on lights and play the weather on the Echo and then have it start music. I can say Alexa, turn on the Accent Lighting and it turns OFF the ones that I want off and dont think are accent, and turns on the ones I say to turn on, and it is super easy. The Kasa app also has timers as much as you want. You can set turn on and the time, and create as many as you want, and turn off the same. My Christmas lights indoor and outdoor were all on these indoors and the plugs for outdoors are on switches, so bam those all worked on timers there. Same with my patio outdoor lights. The only glitch Ive had in the months of using these......I switched Broadband Providers from Uverse to Spectrum. The new WiFi router, I set up the SSID to the exact same, same password, and it should have all just connected and never had a glitch. After 2 hours of weirdness, and trying to reset one of them, and get the TP Link to work.....I spent more time online and realized these are 2.4Ghz ONLY. I had set up the 5Ghz Wifi to be the original. I went in and made the 2.4G the old one, and BAM, everything worked FLAWLESSLY again. So, the 5Ghz wave I made the SSID-5G and all was right with the world once again, ha. My wife said this was silliness......she also said that when I got our first DVR 20 years ago......now the DVR is full of HGTV.....and she admits these things are great.
