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 easy setup through product app, connects to wifi easily and is immediately response. Ability to control each outlet individually, and can setup timers/regular lighting functions. Havent tested out Alexa function, not necessary yet, but will try soon. Really happy with it.

Once again, a search for “outdoor dimmer smart plug” turns up a product that doesn’t actually dim. Product is great - works for what it is - a smart on/off plug. Exchanging. C’mon Amazon you’re killing me.

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

I purchased this to use on outdoor porch for a strand of lights that ran the perimeter. Although the porch is exposed to elements the plug was against the wall under a four foot overhang. Its incredibly convenient to have Alexa turn the lights on/off and it can easily be controlled by phone app when Im away in order to give appearance of someone home. Although my product stopped working outside the 30 days to return it was within the one year warranty. Fiona in customer service could not have been easier to work with. It was all online through email but she and her team completely took care of me and expedited a new unit at no cost to me under their one year warranty. Sometimes it is like pulling teeth to get help, not with Meross, job well done!!!

The quality is as pictured - its really good. However, setup was not fun. Put it this way: I bought an amazon smart plug. I plugged it in, Alexa discovered it automatically, and I was in business. This plug requires you to install a third party app, create an account, set up your plug, and link a skill with Alexa. For me, the linking process kept erroring out on me, to the point I got frustrated, removed the third party app, and decided to return the plug. However, the next day, I reinstalled the app and power cycled my echo, and everything just worked. So...Im keeping it. Youll see THREE smart plugs in your Alexa app. One for the main device, and one for each plug (there are two). You can manipulate any of them with your Alexa/Echo. Now that its installed, Im happy with what I got - Alexa voice control for outdoor patio string lights. But it was a big pain to get it working.

For years when Ive talked to people about smart home outlets, Ive explained that they have two states: on and off, and they cant be used as dimmers. Well here comes Meross to make me a liar, and pull off a dimmable outdoor smart plug. Based on other reviews here, I picked this up to dim my LED café string lights which when fully lit would light up the neighbors yards on three sides of me. The plug works better than I expected. It allows me to bring them down to a nice moody level, plus with Apple Home support I can use Siri to specify a percent to dim the lights to without getting up from my lawn chair. I wish it had more than one outlet, and it would be nice if Meross started shipping products with Thread/Matter, but its a great start and I hope to see these things added in future versions.

Setup was a breeze and it just works - both as a timer and as an Alexa powered device. I set it up on a spare bedroom lamp and named it Lamp, which seemed logical at the time, but now when I see how easy it was too set up and how well it works, I may purchase a couple of more for other lights around the house. So, consider what you name it when you set it up.

This is a GREAT device. It took me about an hour to hook up, but if I did another one, it would only take 15 minutes. It works from a distance...I live in PA and control (open/close) a garage door in VA, 450 miles away. I have LOTS of other Meross smart devices and I really like them. The only improvement I might offer is that the programming, while not hard at all, is a little clunky. That said, its a minor complaint. Meross makes a lot of smart devices at a very competitive price. I have TP-Link smart devices and them are very good too, but more expensive. I wish Meross would offer a video camera and door lock, then I could have an integrated smart system from one vendor.

I also have the meross garage control and indoor plugs so I already have the app. I also have WeMo and Wink products. Meross is a better bargain and the apps works better. It does not require a hub and the Alexa integration is good. the app itself is very powerful so if you do not have google assistant or alexa it will still be awesome. I have an android phone so my experience is with the android app. Setup was very easy. All you do is plug in outlet and click the + symbol in the app and it finds the plug and the wizard guides you through everything. If I had it to do all over again I would only buy Meross to save money and so I only need one app. I hope meross makes more outlets and switches and continues to offer them at such reasonable prices

Easy to set up. I received this today and within a half an hour I was able to have it turn on two sets of outdoor Christmas lights by talking to Alexa. The instructions with the company Meross and with Alexa were both easy to understand. And I am 80 years old and not the greatest at computers and iPhone.
