    No issues with use or dropping wi-fi. Only way to improve is to make smaller or create a two-switch version that could separately handle each outlet.

    Love being able to control my lights with Alexa. This switch works great and is slimmer than their other models so does not block the other outlet.

    I bought this switch so I could turn on my lamp when I am away from my home. So far it has worked nicely. Thinking of buying a second one for upstairs.

    Starts My Coffee

    I have this Wemo switch to start coffee pot, connected to my wifi and amazon Alexa system. I have a bonavita coffee pot that has a basic on off switch, I have this coffee pot just so i can tell alexa to turn on wemo switch. I used a 2nd switch for Christmas tree lights i had to move tree closer, for some reason wemo switch wouldn't work across the house. I did just update my wifi and maybe that will help with range. But over all wemo paired with amazon alexa works great!

    I am using this Wemo switch in conjunction with the Amazon Echo. This switch is easy to setup, and you basically set it and forget it. Alexa works well with the Eemo switch and the switch is quick to respond to commands! I have have no issues with the switch since I've set it up. After this is setup in your account changing the name of the device you are using it with is easy. I first used mine with the Christmas tree and it worked great with the ability to use the timer, use Alexa to turn the tree on, or remotely turn the tree on using the Belkin App.

    noisy and unreliable

    I ignored the reviews (on this and other sites) and decided to try this product. I was annoyed by the constant high-pitched noise it emitted and by the unreliability of the product. I would arrive home and attempt to turn on the product, finding that the app was unresponsive, or worse, couldn't find the product on the network at all. I had to kill the iOS app many times to even see the product, and found myself moving furniture in order to unplug and restart the device. Great idea — horrible execution.

    I bought the wired switches to control most of the lights in my house that are permanently mounted and to be controlled from Alexa, This switch does the same as the permanently mounted ones although these have the advantage of placing any ware. and to be controlled from any ware you have internet access. I used one of these to control all the electronics in our spare bedroom so these can all be left off till we get company then it just as simple as telling Alexa to turn them on, so no need getting behind furniture to plug these item in- a time saver.

    I have been very happy with this product. It works as expected and is nice because I can schedule my lights from my phone and turn them on and off remotely which is great while traveling. It also works really well with my Amazon Echo. It was difficult to set up because my wifi password included symbols and this product does not allow symbols. (which is why I knocked off one star) Once I changed my wifi password it worked with no problem. I have since purchased another one.
