meross Outdoor Smart Plug, Outdoor Wi-Fi Outlet with 2 Grounded Outlets, Remote Control, Timer, Waterproof, Works with Amazon Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings, 2.4Ghz only, FCC Certified, Non-HK

1) you WILL need a separate app to set up and get it to work with smart things 2) it may lose connection once in a blue moon but you just need to reboot the Meross app and get it to recognize your smart things base station again. 3) Smart Things will almost always turn on both sides instead of individually. No idea why it struggles to control the ports independently. 4) It does appear to be waterproof after a few months of use. 5) it does achieve a solid wifi connection to my ASUS ROG AX router which is in the center of the house, not on the outside wall with this unit. Overall it does what I need it to do MOST of the time. Meross app is glitchy, as expected. SmartThings hub MOSTLY works with it as long as the Meross app stays on your phone. Next time I will just go Zwave.

The product works just as advertised. However getting it hooked up and integrated with Alexa is a whole different story. The little 3.5 x 6 piece of paper they provide is nowhere near complete. I was able to get it integrated with Alexa only after a long conversation with someone who has hooked up seven of them. What they need is a video on you tube or whatever that gives you step by step instructions for use with the specific device being used with the app( in my case iPad). I would not recommend this item to any non techie, as Meross has absolutely no support system whatsoever

Liked the unit, however we need a unit similar to others I have seen where the outputs are spread out so small transformer plugs can be installed. Another feature we need on these is dimmer switch models, why?, outdoor lighting and fans in gazebo, outdoor string lighting for dinners or entertainment.

Works as described

Easy to install and set up with Alexa or Google. I link being able to set program for patio lights vs the main system that only had sunset for a certain time duration. The negative is having a strong enough WiFi signal. If you have to buy a WiFi extender, not sure it would be worth it. Have to wait for rain before I try out the water proofing.

still working on functionality but nice that it connects easily with Alexa

This is awesome! I love this! You can dim your lights, tell Alexa to turn in or off your lights (including Siri). Easy set up, highly recommend!

Bueno no encuentro como programar el Tímer para que apaguen solas .

All of our Meross controllers have always worked flawlessly. This on is no exception. I cant wait to review our Meross remote garage door opener.

Stated to be compatible with Alexa but requires a smart cell phone to program it. Obviously, I do not have a smart phone.
