Although I was able to get the device setup through the BestBuy app which controls it I was not successful in getting it to work with my Amazon Echo.

Product works great once you get it set up. The issue is with the software for the phone. It was hard to get it configured and it seems to not be as robust as it could be. What I mean is that the schedule doesn't seem to include multiple times. I'm still playing with it, but my manual timer allowed multiple off and on times. Better software would make this a 5-star review.

Worked great for about 3 weeks, then died. We used it with Google Home to verbally turn on and off our Christmas tree. Loved it while it lasted.

I leave town and I can program my lights or turn my lights on and off on my Android. It looks as though I am home because I have a very disturbed neighbor. He can't tell if I am coming or going or home or away! Wonderful product! Can't wait to purchase two more when they go on sale. Thanks Best Buy!

The plug is actually fine the problem is the app, the plug connects to the WiFi perfect but once you have to access the app it’s horrible after buying the plugs (4) I read online reviews of the app and everyone seems to have the same problem ... don’t waste your time I had to return them because I couldn’t get one to connect at all... the others what would’ve taken 5 min with other brands took me 30 min for each... again don’t waste your time

It does what you expect its just nice to not need to get up i can light up my bar with decorative lights while im getting the house ready. Or i can turn on my lamp in my living room when it gets dark. All in all im very happy with it. Easy to set up and works flawlessly with the echo prime hub.

Easy to setup , I bought 5 of them and took me less than 30 mins to set them all , I have alexa and google home both and these are registered with both simultaneously, so I switch on of from both smart assistants, There is options to keep the LED indicator off which I think is a great feature

I use this unit to remotely switch a hot air furnace burner on and off in a detached garage. The furnace thermostat controls the temperature. The fan can continue to cool down the furnace after the burner shuts off. No more waiting for my garage to heat up when going out there to work in our cold winters.
