    This unit syncs in with the existing GE system perfectly. I was able to add the fish tank seamlessly.

    Great product. No need to get up to turn switch on and off for my appliances. Very easy to set up. Some times app doesn’t work but restarting app fixes it.

    Slightly disappointed. Works very well when it works. Turns light or accessory off fine most of the time. Does not always turn the device back on. Results may vary. I use it with Google home and Google voice assistant. Should have just gone with the C by GE bulbs for the light we are using this on. Use and results may differ or vary.

    Not Reliable

    I bought this Smart Plug at Best Buy because I had a coupon for reduced price; however it's not been very reliable. Often I have to reset it which just means unplug and plug. And it's not because of the WiFi; I have smart plugs from another manufacturer which work just fine. I really like the features of this C by GE plug; unfortuantely it has not been reliable.
