I have three of these units in my home so far. They work so well that I plan to add many more. They work exactly as expected to every single time.

I can not tell you how much I love these smart plugs. I have them paired with the Amazon echo to control the lights in my living room. It is fun to tell Alexa to turn the lights off and on. These work very well. I have had them for quite a while and never had a problem. I also like the fact that I can control the switches with my iphone app from anywhere. Handy when you forget to leave lights on. Pretty funny to watch the looks on my guests faces when I voice command my lights off and on. I will be purchasing more of these for the rest of my house.

I originally bought this so that I could use it with my Amazon Echo. After doing some research I figured out that I could also integrate it with my wireless cameras to automatically turn on a light when motion is detected using IFTTT. Love this!

The device took a little time to sync with wifi and I did not understand you have to buy a different switch to have 2.so I have a second switch that I can't use.

IT DOES A GREAT JOB

When I heard about this product, I thought that I would give it a try. If it would work, it would be a great asset. WOW! IT WORKED! I live about a mile away from my business and when it snows or gets icy, I had to drive there to turn on ice melt in my sidewalks and then return to turn the melt off. Now, I can do this from my home. Great! I then added a second WEMO to turn my OPEN sign on and off when I needed to. My remote cameras show me that it is working. GREAT PRODUCT!

Easy hookup to my wifi. Worked great for controlling my Christmas tree and setting it on a timer. It is a little big and bulky, however.

The switch is used for under counter lighting and although a tiny bit finicky to set up, it finally worked without too much difficulty and continues to work fine. Great because we can turn on some light before coming into the dark kitchen.

Great for Rebooting a device

I use this switch to remotely reboot/restart an electronic device that doesn't provide a way to reset from a distance. For example, I have a tv streaming/slinging device that sometimes needs to be rebooted. The device itself doesn't have a feature to remotely reboot it through it's software interface. So I plug the streaming device into this switch and I can reboot it from essentially anywhere the world (through my phone).

bought it for my girlfriend so she can light up her apartment when she gets home. It works really well. The installation was a bit complicated as it did not want to download and install on her phone. Maybe it was just her phone acting up.

Purchased this after originally purchasing the Insight. I recommend this WeMo simply for the useful tactile switch (non-touch sensor). It Interfaces very well with the iOS app. No connectivity issues, interference, or drop-outs.

If I read the instructions it wouldn't have take me as long on the wifi setup. But this product has worked great from my wife's hair straightener to lamps when we go out of town. I like the app and the basic functions it gives you.
