> 3 dayFollowed instructions, and worked well at the start. Within a few days, Alexa said the plug was unresponsive. I turned on the light OK, but would not turn it off. Instead, I bought an electro-mechanical unit that works just as needed.

> 3 dayPoor Alexa integration. Box and advertisement state your echo can recognize these, but that’s only after using the manufacturer’s app and downloading the manufacturer’s skill to your echo. Couldn’t get them to pair, dealt with Amazon customer service- a whole hassle not worth it. Check the reviews for the app and the skill… you’re better off paying more for the Amazon brand that connect directly with your echo.

> 3 dayWould have given 5 stars but they make a clicking sound when you turn them on. Not a deal breaker though, I think they work great.

> 3 dayI bought this November 30th, installed dec 3, and everything connected fine with my Alexa for a while, was able to create routines for Xmas lights through the app, etc. HOWEVER overnight, these have mysteriously disconnected and refuse to connect to any device or app- Alexa, sengled home, sengled bluetooth. I’ve tried every method of reset (and I’m tech literate) and nothing has worked. It’s not an Alexa issue because my echo is connecting to my phone Bluetooth just fine. Reading the low reviews here shows it’s actually a common problem.

> 3 dayThese mostly paired quickly when they first arrived (first one paired in seconds with no effort, the rest took a few minutes and some work despite selecting to have them paired to my Alexa before they shipped). I was happy! Used them a few times the first day without issue. Woke up the next morning and all 3 Id set up the day prior said they were unresponsive. Ive tried EVERYTHING and they just dont work. Ive downloaded 3 different apps, tried to repair them with Alexa countless times (they are never found), they arent giving off a Wi-Fi signal so theyre not discoverable via the Sengled app. I tried the 4th one, which I never set up originally, and even that one didnt work (I figured it would set up like the 3 on Day 1 but I was wrong). Absolutely a waste of time and money. So frustrating. Im returning these.

> 3 dayI gave these 3 stars because I bought these a few years ago and set up was easy. I didnt need to download another app to set them up. I just used alexa on my phone. Now I deducted 2 stars because setting these up is now a royal pain in the a#$! Now I need to download another app and I still cant set it up because even in the Sengled Home app it doesnt have the item I purchased available to select. This is beyond frustrating!!!!

> 3 dayBecause these home automation devices require a cloud account to interact with them its like the manufacture shipped e-waste directly from the factory to my garbage can. And why wouldnt they demand that you create yet another account on yet another server under the guise of voluntary (its not) and the cloud (its not), even though the device(s) can run locally just fine without a cloud account on your local mobile device that knows what to do with Bluetooth? Why spend time and money engineering covert utilization data monitoring or back doors into your application or product only to be discovered by some pesky security researcher later. Better to just force the user to register the product in a cloud account somewhere so you can exfiltrate that user data the easy way using the cloud as a plausible excuse. 0 of 5 stars. WILL NOT recommend, and that is not to say CAN NOT or WOULD NOT or COULD NOT, but rather a long-considered, thought-out stance against lazy or sloppy programming or the outright desire to spy on users by forcing them into a cloud account in the application that controls these devices even though there is no demonstrable need for it. Save yourself the time and the money. Find something else that allows local control of your Bluetooth, Z-Wave, or Zigbee devices or something that will interoperate with Hubitat or other local command and control infrastructure.
