Tapas Smart Plugs Review I recently had the opportunity to try out the Tapas Smart Plugs, and I must say, they offer a seamless blend of functionality and convenience. Here’s my detailed take on them: Design & Build: The design of the Tapas Smart Plugs is sleek and minimalist, which blends effortlessly with home aesthetics. They are compact, ensuring they don't block adjacent sockets, which is a thoughtful design feature. Installation & Setup: Setting up the Tapas Smart Plugs was a breeze. The companion app guided me through the process, which took less than a few minutes from start to finish. They easily connected to my home Wi-Fi without any hitches. Functionality: Once set up, the smart plugs are incredibly easy to operate. I could control my appliances remotely via the app, set schedules, and setup HomeKit integration. The ability to set timers and countdowns for each plug added a layer of automation that I found very useful, especially for managing power usage. Performance: In terms of performance, the smart plugs have been very reliable. They respond quickly to commands, whether from the app or via voice control. I also appreciated the energy monitoring feature, which provided insights into the power consumption of connected devices. Value for Money: Considering their features and ease of use, Tapas Smart Plugs offer great value for money. They are competitively priced compared to other options on the market, making them an attractive choice for anyone looking to add smart capabilities to their home. Conclusion: Overall, the Tapas Smart Plugs are a fantastic addition to any smart home setup. They are user-friendly, efficient, and offer a great way to manage home appliances smartly. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to enhance their home automation system without breaking the bank.

This is arguably the best "bang for your buck" smart plug on the market right now. It removes the headache of ecosystem compatibility and just does its job reliably. Highly recommended for beginners and smart home experts alike. I love it! The standout feature here is Matter support. Setup was incredibly fast. I scanned the QR code, and then I connected it to Alexa. No jumping through hoops or downloading five different apps just to get it online. It plays nice with Google Home, Alexa, and Siri simultaneously. Space-Saving Design: True to the "Mini" name, this plug is compact. It doesn't block the second outlet, which is a massive annoyance with older smart plugs. You can easily stack two of these on a standard wall plate. I currently use this for a floor lamp that is hard to reach behind the bed. I have it set to an automation to turn on at sunset and off at 10:30 PM. It has worked flawlessly every single night.

These are the only smart outlets I have experience with. I have owned them almost a year now, and created device schedules (On and Off at fixed time of day), Smart Action shortcuts (tap to turn On, but automatically turn Off some time later), and Automations (Turn on 1 hour before sunset and turn off based on an other condition), etc. I added them to Google Home (only the devices transfer, not smart actions) and created some automations in Google Home. For just automation and device schedules, Tapo app is more capable than Google, just cannot use voice activation or integration with non Tapo devices. 4 stars because of that and requires internet for automation, which is typical for most platforms. Device schedules are local to the device though, and Matter hubs with local automation are coming. Has no power/energy use monitoring, which would be interesting, but is not needed for automation, and would add cost. Smaller than any traditional plug-in timer and much more capable. Very good value when on sale.

These little smart plugs have been great in the few weeks I've owned them. Setup is simple, takes less than five minutes. I like that they're small so they'll fit in most places. I've been using them for a couple lamps in my bedroom and being able to turn them on and off from my phone so convenient. Hopefully they will come out in different colors in the future as not all my outlets are white.

Theses little plugs are great. I use one for my training center (virtual bike trainer, fan, screen. It’s attached to Apple Home, so I tell Siri to “turn on the training center”. No more individual switches. The other turns a “dumb” reading lamp on. Cheaper than a Hue bulb or smart outlet at half of the 2-pack price. They’re stupid simple to set up, and can be moved anywhere.

While it was a cheaper price than the Amazon type, it works as well. It took a little longer to get working, but now I can not tell any different with any of the other plugs in my house.

Had to go through the Matter setup process twice before it showed up in Apple Home, but now it’s working without issue.

WORKS WELL with my Google Home system. I use it to have a lamp to turn on automatically in morning. I will buy another one, for another appliance-unit.

I have previously used the Roku smart plugs and they were constantly malfunctioning and needing replaced. I have used these plugs with NO ISSUE. My new favorite brand and I am looking forward to purchasing more products from this company.

A retired senior, I thought I'd never get anything like this. Have a bunch of these and also a bunch of dimmable smart bulbs. 19 total! They can both be programmed for on/off times, including variable sunset/sunrise. I have "groups" set up. One group is "all". Shut "all" off when I leave. Super handy and very easy to set up.

Great plug that works with SmartThings hub. Super easy set up using matter. Originally bought one for Christmas Tree lights- it worked as designed so I purchased a few more for lamps, iron, etc. Haven't had any issues with it losing connection as it's setup via matter. Overall definitely worth the price.
