03-12-2024This is a sturdy solid device and because you don’t have to plug in those large Wi-Fi plugs you can actually use all of the outlets! I have tried many different smart plugs but Kasa has been the easiest set up and become the most dependable brand of smart plug I’ve used over the years! This device also monitors the energy from each plug…awesome! I highly recommend this brand for any smart plug you need!

> 3 dayThe only real challenge I have with these smart strips is that you never really know how much energy your old strip was using so you dont have anything to really compare it to

> 3 day4 Stars because this helps with scheduling of lights and airstones on my 4 aquariums so they are automatically consistant everyday. I would give this product 5 stars but some days the schedule is not accurate e.g. today my light had to be turned on in the app manually but the other 6 days this week it was completely automated. Not sure why it blips but I wouldnt trust it to automate my filters or anything critical like that.

Greater than one weekThis thing is AWESOME! A little tricky to set up at first, but if you use a timer for any outlets, you need to get this, it saves so much space. And if you add yhe cost of several timers and a power strip, the cost comes out about the same.

> 3 dayUpdate 1-2-2021: Well it seems I made an error in my original review. If you do change your wifi name or password you can re-connect the device without loosing all your settings. The key is to not select reset device when re-connecting it, which is what i did. Then it will go straight to the wifi setup section without loosing names or schedules. However this isnt mentioned anywhere in the manual (which is just a little card telling you to use the app). I had to get the information from users at the Kasa forum and it took a while to find. So Im uping my rating, but still docking 1 star for this to not be documented in the user guide or app. Original Review: I liked this thing so much that I bought another one. They were both super easy to set up and the app works great to controll each outlet individually and create schedules to help save energy. The plugs are spaced far apart enough to be able to plug in USB power supplies and other wall warts without covering an adjacent outlet. Overall the thing is great and I would have given it 5 stars easily. And now for the bad, and I mean really bad! I routinely change my wifi password about once a month as recommended by security experts. This is where it completely fails. The app has no place to change this. Not even in the settings for the device. Their support says I have to reset it to factory settings and set it up again! This is a major failure. So now I have to setup 12 outlets again with names and schedules. I was going to buy a couple more of these, but now forget it. 12 outlets is enough to have to redo every month. Unless TP-Link pushes out a firmware or app update to correct this horrible oversight I wont be getting any more. Thats why I only gave it 3 stars. When and if they fix this issue it becomes a 5 srar product.

04-12-2024I really like this smart plug, but I can’t use it in all the areas at my place, the cord is so short! It just doesn’t work for me.

> 3 dayBought this to put behind my tv/accessories/lamps. Allows me to power down individual items to limit power draw. Took a minute to figure out the order the plugs were in, but very easy to set up.

> 3 dayI have many of these power strips they work great. Although sometimes with power surges they end up off the wifi when the power returns. Overall I really enjoy having these power strips.
