    Works very well...I have had no problems with it (them) The first unit set up very easily, but the second one was a little tricky. After 10 minutes...it finally came together.

    Great product. Save some electricity and for convenience too. I got it on sale and had a best buy gift card, so it is really worth it.

      Hi, Unique,
      We value your feedback and appreciate the time you've spent. Give us the chance to make it work for you. Perform a reset on your WEMO.
      *Unplug your WEMO device.
      *Hold down the Restore button (labeled on top).
      *While holding the Restore button down, plug the WEMO device into a power outlet and continue to hold the button down for five (5) to 15 seconds.
      *The status light will begin to blink amber to signify it is reset. Release the Restore button. It should take about 60 to 90 seconds for the WEMO device to restore and reboot.
      * It will blink blue and amber or green and amber when finished.
      Once done configure the WEMO like new. Here's how: http://www.belkin.com/us/support-article?articleNum=80142

    It does exactly what it is supposed to do. There is room for improvement with the Android app, but hopefully that will come at some point.

    I love the fact that I can use my mobile phone or tablet to put lights on or off if I'm not home. Or just setting it up to go on everyday at sunset.

    Although they work ok, the setup takes a little to get used to. I wish they would allow several on-off cycles per day.

    I would say, get the switch so you are not using your phone all the time, but the alarm to turn the outlet on and off is pretty cool feature.

    I really like helpful gadgets but it's frustrating when they don't work properly. I've had to call Wemo several times about it not working. They are helpful but the resetting process has proved to be a short term fix. Sometimes after resetting if will work for a couple of days other times just a few minutes.
