Vont Smart Plug [1 Pack] Alexa Smart Plugs, WiFi + Bluetooth, No Hub Required, Smart Home, Google Home & IFTTT, Voice Command, Timer & Schedules, Control Anywhere, Vacation Mode, ETL & FCC Certified

Installed the Vont app and set up the smart plugs. It was easier than I expected, and I can use Alexa to control the plugs. The price was great, the plugs work as advertised, and I am going to buy more of these to add to my smart plug collection.

These are easy to install and I like that they come with an iPhone App to control in functions to truly operate as a smart plug. It helps me control my lamps and plan a schedule.

Once the app was set up, we made several attempts to add new device. The set up took awhile and the rules to adjust the timer was confusing and fussy. We wanted the light to come on and off at a certain time. Once it finally connected, it works great! The light comes on at its specific time and off at its set time. The box contained 2 plugs. Now we can set up the other one:) I would purchase again.

The plugs work as expected and are easy to setup and connect with Alexa.

The plugs come in a minimal amount of packaging. I appreciate that the packaging is recyclable and minimal. The plugs are easy to install. I setup Vont Home in moments, and then adding the plugs, including discovery was super smooth. If youre putting this on a two plug wall outlet this will only take one plug. Thats nice. The one oddity was that scheduling the device to turn off everyday at a certain time, and then turn on at a certain time is not under schedule, but instead under rules. Not a big deal, I found it quickly and once I did it was really easy. Id expect a future version of the firmware to either change this or to include a note under the scheduling section. I have a few smart plugs and assuming this lasts well I would recommend getting this one.

Setting up with Alexa will not work directly…you need the Vont app. Set up should be able to be done direct. Why do I need yet another app just for plugs? When I already “supposedly” have one? Over all…not too bad though. The app does work when you get it set up. Be sure to check your router speeds! It must be compatible with 2.5gb you may need to call your provider and have them activate the 2.5 band. If you use extenders, the same applies…it must support the band.

Integration with Alexa could be made clearer and simpler. Like the time on clock, there should be a time of clock. Keep it simple

I love this product. Its super easy to use. Plug it in and turn it on. Download the app and link it. The app is easy to use and configure to auto turn on and off. I can go on vacation and set the timer without worrying the house would be too dark. Another great thing about this plug is the flexibility to use Google home or Alexa to control the plug. I have other vont products and I can validate their products are user friendly and easy to connect to their app. You will not be disappointed with this brand.

Constantly drop off of Wi-Fi and you set-up every time. I’ve had them for 5 months and I had to set them up more than ten times. So if you’re ok with constantly setting up a Wi-Fi device this is for you.

I have two of these outlets controlling the lights on two different aquariums. They work great. I have had a few issues with them not turning on but the tech support is very quick to respond and get everything working as it should.
