These are great, in fact I've bought two. Here's the problem though. If you live in an apartment that provides you wifi, it's going to be a lot more difficult to set up. Other than that, the app can be laggy at times and not connect well.

Had to figure out how to connect to wifi, not great instructions. If somewhat tech savvy, should not be a problem. Works good otherwise.

It works, but it took a long time for the app to connect to the plug. Also, every time the app updates, I had to reset my programs for timing. Entry level only, I haven't tried turning things on/off remotely outside of the home.

I've connected a closet lamp to this smart plug. I keep a Google Home Mini in there as well. I walk in and say, "Hey Google, Turn on the closet light". And boom it comes right on. 1 out of 100 times it might be slightly delayed. I attribute that to WiFi signal issues. Its buried in that closet away from the WiFi access point.
