    Used it to watch how much my home entertainment center was using and be able to shut the power off to it. Has helped save money.

    The insignia smart outlet works great with our Google home mini. It turns a corner light that is difficult to get to on and off with ease

    Like I said it’s great for the price wish it was a little easier to set up. I have it set up with my Apple home and it’s only one personal app but difficult to set up with Alexa .

    Wanted another HomeKit accessory to help me control Christmas lights. Got this one on sale and it works just fine. I like that it has an on/off button just in case you need it.

    Piece of junk. CAN be controlled by the insignia app but after HOURS of trying, it could not be discovered by Alexa OR Google. After numerous attempts and annoying resets I simply gave up. It is going back. Splurge the few extra bucks for something that works with home automation.

    The recognition of the device to the app can be sluggish. Also, the response to using the app to turn on/off the plug can be delayed. BUT... it does work.
