Leviton DW15A-1BW Decora Smart Wi-Fi Plug-in Outlet, Works with Amazon Alexa, No Hub Required

Being able to use my Amazon Echo turn on and off my lights through this smart WiFi plug-in has been awesome. The DW15A was super easy to install and integrate with the Echo and the Leviton app. The advantage over other similar plugs is that this plug is part of a system platform that can manage other outlets, light switches and plugs that can handle other devices that may have more complicated requirements.

After purchasing a cheaper model and having them fail, I bought this and have been very happy with it. I have my swamp cooler plugged into it and when I am on my way home, I turn it on in the app so that the house is nice and cool for me by the time I get home. A real energy saver! I wish I would have bought all of the Leviton.

This works simply when you plug it in. I highly recommend this item.

Works great with the wireless and smart phone for on and off. Its not good on keeping the scheduled on and off times if you shut it off before the scheduled time. Will not follow the programmed time schedule unless you unstall and re-install .

Works like a charm.

Do not buy. Waste of money

After a minor glitch and a little tweaking the WiFi outlet is now performing perfectly. The procedures to enable the unit are straightforward and clearly detailed in the Getting Starting insert. Briefly, I loaded the My Leviton app from the Apple App Store. It went through a six step process to configure the device and the app. It was fairly quick, taking under five minutes, but it hung-up on the last step so I was forced to cancel and start over. The second attempt completed without incident and since I wanted Alexa to control the outlet I started the Alexa app which was already loaded on my iOS device. This outlet can be used without Alexa but it requires a WiFi network. In that app I went to Settings, Skills and added the My Leviton skill. Then I went to Settings, Smart Home and under the skill just added I selected Discover Devices. The outlet appeared on the list and I closed the app. Final step is to request Alexa to turn on or turn off, in this case, a lamp. I attempted to use the default name provided by the manufacturer for the outlet but it is lengthy and cumbersome – something like Leviton outlet 366. But, when I asked Alexa to turn on the outlet the name was not recognized. So, after a few failed attempts I went back into the My Leviton app and changed the name of the device to one that is short, easy to say and understand. So, far very pleased. It is convenient to turn the light on and off with a simple verbal command and I appreciate being able to use Alexa in an expanded capacity. Currently functioning without issue.

I wish that this would integrate with smartthings although its not zwave so that wont happen, I wish it would integrate with IFTTT but so far no. So what does it integrate with? The My Leviton app... Ok so thats the bad news if you have a smart home and have other products, because now you have one more place to go to control lights. HOWEVER what I like about this switch is you can build a schedule into it. So I have a humidifier next to my bed and have this plug connected to that. I have a timer set to every night before bed turn it on and then about an hour before I wake up turn it off automatically, this way I dont need to think about it. The plug has worked very well and is very reliable. If it integrated into other solutions Id give it 5 stars, but it doesnt at the current time. The app is reliable, the plug works and overall I am happy with it. As long as you are ok living in the leviton world and use this with a timer solution its a great option.

Easy to setup and works great

One works but plug slips in and out - there is nothing in plug receptacle to hold plug and lamp does not get power. The other one will not connect to Samsung Smart Hub & Echo Alexa. I have 10 total in my house so I m very familiar with resetting them and connecting. Not sure if these were refurbs or just a bad batch but they need returning.
