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

Very simple to set up. Each outlet has its own control. I dont really need the Alexa integration, but I mostly got it for the custom settings it has. I can turn outside lights any amount of time before sunset, and then off at a specific time. not like those one that make you choose between 2, 4, or 6 hours later. No more resetting timers for me! The Alexa integration is simple and works like a charm. If you are not using Apples Homekit, get this one. Its the same thing, but less expensive.

Plugged into my outdoor outlet and added my cafe lights to it. Easy set up, I can now tell Alexa to turn it turn off my cafe lights when needed. Love it.

It took a bit to get set up. First, I believe it was an error I made. I use a VPN and spent about an hour trying to get the dinner to add to the app. After a bit I realized I had installed the dimmer after I enstalled the other Meeoss switches and outlets t use. Once I disconnected the VPN. Boom. Works like a champ. I have 3 stars to the easy to install as a single sentence turn off VPN prior to trying to connect would have saved a lot of time. Overall it is a good product at a great price. Thanks

As you can see, the functionality is amazing. My only issue is I thought it would be a bit more water resistant. A few bouts of sideways rain kind of made my GFCI trip. I bought it for that as much as the integration which is why it gets four stars. Other then that, setting up the plug was an absolute breeze and having it be integrated with the rest of my smart home was just as easy. Really helped with keeping the electric bill down during the holidays.

Works as described

I really like Meross. This is probably the 5th or 6th product that I’ve purchased from this brand. Like every other purchase, this smart outdoor outlet is easily set up in a minute or two, and integrates seamlessly with my other Meross products via the app. (no problems with the app either, yay!) I used this for my Christmas lights and blow up Olaf yard deco so I don’t have to go in and out every evening and unplug before I go to bed. Giving 4 stars out of 5 because the rubber socket cover gets in the way when you have two cords plugged in at once so I had to rip it off.

While I have a different, popular manufacturer, for managing a number of sockets inside my house, they dont make any for outside use. But as I have different C7 lights out lining my house from Oct thru April I wanted something for outside, searching I took a chance on these and so glad I did. Very easy to use and setup thru the app but I love the routine functionality, and the fact that I can control, and set routines for, each plug individually. Liked it so much Ive bought two more already.

Im switching many of my remote devices to Meross. A landscaper put in an off-brand timer for my yard lights - hard to setup and failed after a year. My Meross one bought the same time is great! Bought another to replace the off brand one and have everything in one app. Way better!

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.

Works flawlessly with HomeKits. Dims café lights directly from iPhone with no issues.
