I bought the 4 pack of these and found it pretty simple to install. I did have to switch my router to 2.4 GHz only for the installation only. I then also downloaded the Meross app and updated the firmware. Then I could turn back on my 5ghz network and everything worked perfectly.

These are way easier to set up than I thought. All you have to do is scan the QR code and you’re ready to go!

These are very easy to set up once you understand the process. You run the Home app, add an accessory, and scan the Q-code with your phone. Next you immediately plug it into an open plug so that the device can be found via WiFi. I recommend doing this with an easily accessible plug *near* your WiFi router initially before taking it to its destination. Why? The set up can take longer with a plug farther away and sometimes it would not complete when further away. So I would have to bring it closer, and try again. Once the plug is added, you can easily take it further away without any operational issues (so long as you are in WiFi range of course).

I thought this would be easy to set up and just use I only got one to actually connect to my phone and I don’t have an out dated phone I have a iPhone 13pro max and this was just hard it took me an hour to figure out one!!! I’m returning this

These are definitely the best HomeKit smart plugs I’ve used very reliable small enough to fit two in one outlet stacked one on top of the other some of the other smart plugs I’ve used partially block the second plug I would definitely recommend these plugs for the price point and the easy set up meross has a lot of great products that I’ve been using( light bulbs, smart garage door opener in wall smart switches ) and will continue to add more If you have a 5 hertz and 2.4 hertz dual band for me the trick that I’ve found was go to the furthest outlet away from your wireless router and do the set up this will initiate your 2.4 Hz band and lock that in. it seemed to me anytime I hooked up a smart product next to my router it would key into the 5 GHz and I would lose connection periodically so I found the furthest away from the router the better for initial set up with HomeKit and other 2.4 only smart products these plugs I have had no issues on HomeKit with the (red)not response logo in HomeKit And when I have to reboot my router they reconnect automatically with no problem

When all points are connected I find it very easy to use, connects with my Apple home App very well. Set up was also a breeze, and you get the choice of using the Meross App (recommended to at least have the app) or just skipping that and going with Apple Home app. I have been using these smart plugs for about 6 months and have experienced intermittent connectivity issues. They typically resolve when I either unplug/plug in or reconnect the device, however many of these outlets are in hard to reach places, so it is very cumbersome to have to reconnect them. One of the four plugs has already died on me sadly, so I will be testing out different smart plugs going forward.

I started buying Meross Smart MiniPlugs about a year ago, attracted by their price, and a little nervous about their quality. I have found the MiniPlugs to be solidly built, relatively easy to set up, and have had no reliability issues. I also bought a smart wall switch and wall dimmer switch from Meross. Same good experience with both of those. Although I believe you can add these devices to Home without installing the Meross app, you will not be able to get upgraded firmware for the devices without having a Meross app and account. This is not a big issue - the app is free, and doesnt trouble you with notifications or junk mail, etc. Apple Home will tell you that a device update is available. You simply use the app, click update and its done. I bought another 4 mini plugs during a cyber Monday deal saving about $2 on each device. Even without the discount, these smart plugs are an excellent value.

Affordably priced and a decent product, however they occasionally unpair and disconnect. The firmware is up-to-date. If the issue persists, I’ll reach out to their support team.

Its easy to install into a Meross network and easy to integrate into my Google Home net.

I have had a battle trying to set these up with HomeKit. Meross provides a ton of troubleshooting methods such as restarting the router, turn iPhone on/off, switch Wi-Fi to 2.4GHz, factory reset the switch. I have never been more frustrated setting up a HomeKit product. After all this troubleshooting I could only get 2 out of 4 to pair, and after all this troubleshooting I have no idea what was actually successful. The two that are paired work great, but my oh my was getting them setup a huge pain. EDIT: once they are paired, they are a breeze, and an awesome product that is great for the price.
