    Loving the plug so far. I have set programs and they seem to be limitless - with in 7 days - you can have several per day. Setting it up was easy and so far I have no complaints. I do have a suggestion to Geeni, please work on the packaging for the twin pack. I picked up two sets of these and they don't stay put in the packaging. They come loose and rattle around in the box until you open them and then they fall out.

    I use these to control the ceiling lights on an enclosed porch. They were easy to sync to the app and to Alexa, The are just a little two big to put two side by side on one outlet, but there may be enough room to use the other side of the outlet for a small plug. It is an unheated porch, so hopefully they will work during the cold Ohio winter.

    The Geeni smart plugs were easy to configure and get them running on my wireless network. They work well with Alexa devices and the Android app is well designed and easy to use. My only complaint is lack of integration with my SmartThings hub. I would prefer to minimize the number of apps needed to control my devices, but Alexa makes it easier to deal with.

    Had issues with another brand of WiFi smart plugs from Best Buy so returned them and started looking at reviews. The Geeni had the best reviews so ordered 2 online. Had them up and running with the Geeni app in 5min. I had spend 4yrs on the previous WiFi smart plugs I bought at Best Buy. I'm surprised they do not carry this in the store. I'm glad I could purchase them online. Very happy with my purchase.

    I bought this as a replacement for my insignia plugs, since they wont be supported no more. So far happy with my purchase, they seem to lag less than my insignia ones. My insignia plugs took forever to turn on when I turned them on the app.

    Had for about a month now. Have them on my tvs to use with google home. I didn't have to re-add them to the app once. But you're going to have that with any type of technology. Keeps me from looking for my remote so very pleased.

    I love this smart plug. Note: it can only be used with devices that can power themselves back on such as some newer tvs. Basically if you have to turn the device back on if you lose power then this device won't work as intended. I use it with a TV and my Google Home to vocally turn my TV on and off. No issues at all with this purchase or setup.

    I love these Geenie products. They are very easy to set up and do not loose their connection from my WIFI. I have purchased several 'other' top brand smart plugs and no longer use them because of their difficult setup and WIFI disconnection problems.

    Love these little plugs, the app works well, we use these all year long to turn on and off all different things, from lights to Christmas trees, pumpkins, fish tanks etc. I started using these, when Insignia stopped supporting their App.

    I had some issues with the app, could get it to recognize my wifi network, contacted the support at geeni's website they suggested a very complicated problem involving my ISP... (no way is that complicated)... just uninstalled the app, installed again and it worked like a charm. It is a bit annoying that you have to create an account in order to get it to work with google home but, hey... you have to give away some data in order to get this lower price. Now my coffee machine starts by itself and I get my well deserved cup of coffee without having to walk all the 10 feet to the kitchen and pressing a button.

    They work well with my Amazon Alexa. I like that I also have the option to just go over and press the button to turn it on. Easy to set up. I wound up using my Smart Life app instead of the recommended smart app to set them up.

    Don't bother getting this if you only have an Apple phone. I tried for over an hour to get this to work. Finally gave up and gave it to my husband with his Android phone and it connects in under a min. Works great if you can get it connected though.

    We purchased these plugs to replace our Insignia plugs which were no longer supported. It appeared to be a simple set-up, but our Google Mini, WiFi and the smart plug disagreed. We still don't have the plugs set up and I figure I will have to clear out all locations and start over. Perhaps that will get all our technology to cooperate,
