    Love using these to track exactly how much it cost to track any specific devices. Very cool.

    A small booklet is included with a QR code to download the app. Easily setup an account. Added the plug to my account and I was up and running. Easily integrated with Google Assistant. Best part is separate control for each outlet. And you can customize the name for each.

    I am extremely happy with this product. One thing that I wasn’t able to see in the description was whether or not each outlet on the device was controllable individually, or whether turning on the device turned on both outlets. Fortunately, you can name each outlet individually and control each one separately. The VeSync app is one of the best designed and easiest to use apps I’ve seen in a while. It was simple to connect to my Google Home account and easily controllable by voice commands to turn on or off the outlets. I use one of the outlets to plug in the transformer for my landscape lights and used the Schedule function in the VeSync app to have them turn on and off automatically.

    Bought these on sale for deal of the day Cheaper than other brands, but worked great for my Christmas blow-ups and lights. Connected both outlets to Alexa and automated them. Each plug in has 2 outlets which can be separately turned on or off. A great function.

    Excellent value for the money. Simple set-up, and, seems to be weather proof as described. One set up on front porch and one in the back, no issues using either with Alexa, routines, or timers. Couldn't be happier.

    When it comes to Smart plugs we have so many to choose from. but I got to tell you these are outstanding quality. You get two 3 prong plugs in one device. they can pick up a Wi-Fi signal from very far away and have no communication issues. they are weather resistant the app is user-friendly and easy to set up. They also work with your favorite voice assistant. Pure quality Quality quality these are a must buy! all the features you need and want they have. including timers as well as the ability to see the amount of power your using with the devices you plug in. Plus For holidays decorating these are a definite must buy! And for whatever reason these dont pop breakers easily. Must Buy

    Love these! We usually a remote with a Keychain fob. However I feel like when we leave town it is obvious because our outside Christmas lights and decor don't get turned on. Now with these and the app we can turn them on from anywhere! We have indoor lights we turn on through an app at random times to make it look like we are home and now we can do the same with our outside seasonal stuff! So glad we found these. Got them on deal of the day so the price was perfect! Love that each outlet one the plugs are controlled separately. Easy to set up and works with common smart home apps!

    Outside of a little snafu that occurred between Bestbuy and me receiving my product, these things are great. I used them for my outside Christmas decorations. I already use a bunch of these similar devices throughout my house and adding this one to the app proved to be fairly simple. It has two outlets for each plug and they register as separate outlet-plugs. I know that might seem confusing but hopefully this will help. Each box comes with two devices. Each device has an A plug and a B plug so you can attach and control different things on your plug.

    This is a great product to say the least. I always hated going outside every night to plug in and unplug my Christmas lights. This made it so simple and using the app from my smartphone was easy as well. The setup was so simple my 6year old grand daughter could have done it. This is a must for setting up ones Christmas lights. Love this item !!

    I've set up and used dozens of smart outlets/switches, and these were some of the easiest to set up. They have been super reliable, without a single lost connection or issue over the last 3 months of use. I would recommend them if you are needing outdoor smart control of an outlet. I used them for my Christmas lights. Both outlets can be controlled independently, which is an added bonus.

    Great Outdoor Smart Outlets

    This was my first purchase of any outdoor smart outlets and I must say this works great. I've never used ETEKCITY, but they seem to be 1 of 3 partners within VeSync. VeSync is also the app that is used, and it's easy to set up and control the device like any other smart gadget. I appreciate that you can control each outlet (in one pack) separately and assign different names to each outlet.

    I got them on a Best Buy Deal of the day promotion. Great price for a 2 pack. Easy to use app. On-Off switch or just set a schedule and thats it. Each smart plug has 2 outlets that can be controlled to do the same thing or be controlled separately. Not many 2 outlet smart plugs in this price range will do separate settings for each outlet.

    Got as a deal of day and I only wish that I had bought two of these. Set up was very easy and using the outlet was very easy. It had the option to set up a rule to control more than one outlet and I was able to turn on all my Christmas lights plugged into these two outlets with one click on the AP. If I had bought two of these I could of turned on all front and back lights with 1 click. Clark Griswald would have been jealous. Will work good over summer for porch lights. Will buy more if they appear on the deal of the day again.

    I had been looking for something to control our outdoor garden lights.... no longer need to keep looking. I have them on a timer, hooked right into Google nest, or I can use their app. Awesome.

    I got these babies dirt cheap since they were a Deal of the Day. I cannot believe how much easier it is to just set a timer then forget to plug and unplug. Completely exceeds my expectations and might pick up another pair in the future.
