Kasa Smart Plug Mini, Smart Home Wi-Fi Outlet Works with Alexa & Google Home, Wi-Fi Simple Setup, No Hub Required – A Certified for Humans Device (HS105)

These are my favorite smart plugs!!! Super easy to set up and they just work. You do need to get the Kasa app (which is also great) but after that connecting to Alexa or Google Home is a piece of cake. The Kasa app is great for setting up routines or grouping devices. I’ve only used with lighting but everyone in our home loves them.

I like our herbs and spices, it’s very important to me to have my roots and spices naturally. I work out 3 to 4 times a week. I do the best to take care of Myself. It’s important that we all stay healthy. We have herbs and spices to take care of everything that’s needed for the body and for the brain also for her skin and hair. We have herbs and spices to cleanse our bodies. It’s very important to cleanse our body. I order just about every year anything from Amazon.com I ordered all my car parts interior and exterior, also engine parts.

They work well. I have them on just about every plugged in light and always use one on the Christmas tree and the outdoor version for lights. It is so much easier to ask alexa to turn on the tree than to crawl under and plug it in. The timer function great for not only turning the lights on an off but also a good way to turn lights off late at night if someone forgets to turn them off. The sunrise and sunset options come in very handy and these have replaced all my mechanical timers. The wifi setup is the only downfall. It isnt too complicated but not straight forward either. I had to set a couple of these up for a coworker who was ready to give up and return them. If you happen to change your wifi password the update process is more difficult than it has to be.

The Kasa smart plugs have all been very reliable and easy to set up. I bought them after throwing out(returning but seriously wanted to just chuck them) multiple Wemo minis. Not sure if its the particular mesh router I use(eero) but I just could not get the Wemos to work. Not with the Kasa smart plug. It easily set up on first try, and was rock solid throughout. I use them for my bedside lamp and set a schedule to have them turn on around bed time so I never go up to a dark room. They also worked like a champ for indoor christmas lights and random lighting when Im out of town. I havent gone all out with smart home products, but if you just want a couple here or there for lighting, this is such a great product, no fuss and rock solid reliable.

The product works but is probably a little bigger than it really needs to be and makes a rather audible click when changing from on to off. Greatest complaint is probably the software which for most will probably be a set and forget if your connecting it to a hub. The software looks nice but experiences tons of extremely frustrating bugs. I have 3 and 1 set up perfectly with no issues took like 30 seconds the next two though... they each took 5 to 10 minutes of just closing the app and running through the entire process again until it just magically worked.

After growing frustrated with how pathetically bad WEMO is, I opted for this less expensive option. And Im so glad I did. The WEMO devices, of which I have 3, were a headache to get installed (and this coming from a tech guy who is the one everyone calls for help setting things up...yes, WEMO is THAT bad, that even if you know what youre doing, it still involves a bit of luck to get it set up properly). The Kasa mini plug (and the same goes for the RGB bulb by Kasa I also bought) was a BREEZE to set up. Seriously, if all tech were this easy to set up, my family and friends would leave me alone with all the can you come help me set this up calls Im routinely bombarded with. Within 5 minutes, I had set up the app and installed and used both the mini plug AND the smart bulb AND had already integrated them with Google Home (cant speak to the Alexa setup since I dont own one). Its THAT easy. Super impressed. If the durability on these devices is good (Ill update if I ever have any failures or other issues) then seriously, Kasa are the smart devices everyone should be flocking to. All-in-all...color me impressed. Will DEFINITELY be adding more Kasa devices in the coming weeks and months. Thanks TP-Link for an amazing set of devices. :)

Works great when it works. I especially like the ability to coordinate the on time with sunset. Only problem is that it occasionally gets hung up and has to be reset.

Let me tell you... this device; amongst other similar devices comes in handy! When I leave out of the state I can still control the settings and pretend as if I or another family member are still at home. So funny story... my daughter was on restriction and sometimes she likes to sneak and watch TV while I am not home. What did I do? I turned that light on with my phone and watched her (hidden cam in livingroom) get startled, jump up and turn that TV off and shoot straight to her room to get in bed. Lol.

Great smart plug. I use mine for a grow light, which I have turn on and off at set times. Consider getting an in-wall smart outlet instead because they look better. I debated between the two for a while but ultimately chose this because I wanted to be able move the plug around the house.

Love this!! Bought 2 Echo Dots at Christmas and was offered a package deal with one of them that included this plug. Got it for my daughter. Her lamp is on the far side of the bedroom and it’s so difficult fumbling in the dark to get to it. She plugged her lamp into this plug and now, when we’re near the door, we just ask Echo to turn on or off the light for us. Wish I had more!! Setup was so easy. Best product to buy if you have Alexa products!
