This really helps you get the extra WiFi boost that is needed in a larger home and having a big family. It was easy to download and set up.

I got a few of these for my self and my family for Christmas. Not only do they have the hardest time connecting to the internet. If they get knocked off for any reason good luck getting them back on. Not to mention they do not respond well with Alexa at all. She will say they are on when they are not and than just when you had it and walk away they pop on. I am beyond frustrated with this junk. I have a few insignia stuff and they have been great, this one is just junk and will make me rethink buying insignia again in the future.

Does exactly as it should, turns on a light through the app. The app can be kind of annoying at times and not immediately show all the Smart Plugs. Otherwise it works really well.

I used this for a lamp and it’s cool that you can create a schedule in the app to turn it on and off and on particular days. Pretty neat.

Walked in expecting to purchase another more expensive model to go with my Echo. BB sales rep recommended the Insignia and works great!

I had bought two and they are adequate, but when they are on your wifi and have multiples it is hard to figure out which is which one because they are set up by numbers.

The first one I had didn't work (could never set up properly) so returned for a new one. That one did work, but it took a few tries for it to be recognized on my network.
Once I got over that hurdle it seems to work fine. The interface and features are pretty basic, but it does work as described.

Pretty good alternative to the WeMo smart plug. I had issues with it staying connected initially but that turned out being an issue with my Comcast issued router loosing connection on its 2.4 ghz channel. Definitely worth the $15 sale price that it is selling for during the holiday season

This smart plug works great with Google Home. The devices plugged into it can be controlled via smartphone or set up with a timer/schedule.
