Monthly fee required

Great product but I did not realize from the description all the nice features will work only with the Shelly app. By the way the app requires a monthly fee to use.
I wish I knew about these before I bought my other ones.

So far, Good to go
Only setup one of the three,but so far, working perfectly with Home Assistant.I'm hopeful it has better reliability that my Z-wave and Zigbee devices. Great that it doesn't require internet like my Tuya/SmartLife devices.

These plugs are the best!!!
These plugs are the best. They may cost a bit more than your run of the mill smart plug but well worth it. I’ll definitely buy again for future needs.

Love this plug. The ability to log into the built-in web page and use the open-source codes is epic.

Works as stated
Works as stated. Created scenes / schedules for when I’m away. Sure I’ll find other uses. Green “on” LED indicator sort of bright but good for diagnostic and sure there is some setting somewhere to dim it, but not a priority for me.

Nice useful smart plugs
Had some stumbles at first, getting acquainted with smart plugs that weren’t Zooz z-wave, but I finally figured it out and now I have several of these smart plugs in use around the house. Installed first in the Shelly app, then migrated to Home Assistant, then used the HomeKit bridge integration with Apple Home which I use as the front end.
So far, after only a couple weeks, I have no complaints

very powerful and flexible, incredible value for the price
The base functionality is very flexible (support for matter, shelly API, web, UDP-RPC, websocket).
Almost no competitor has support for temperature and all the protection features that this plug provides (which allows to use it confidently in heavy-duty situation), or definitely not in the same price range.

Good, but hopefully future updates unlock features.
It's pretty good for the initial release. I hope to see future firmware updates expose more sensors and controls, especially LED color controls, in Zigbee and Wi-Fi for smart platforms like Home Assistant. Currently the API is the only way to do anything with LED colors, which is do-able, but time consuming. I use quite a few Shelly devices with Home Assistant and I'd like to be able to have the LEDs act as notifications from other events in my smart home with different colors indicating specific events. Also have the ability to control brightness based on conditions such as time of day or brightness detected by the built in light sensor. Those changes would make this go from good to great and I'd buy quite a few more.

Integrated easily into Homeassistant
Integrated easily into Homeassistant. I've only tested on wifi so far. I'm looking forward to trying out the other features as I reorganize my messy collection of smart home gadgets.

The added LED was an awesome surprise
The added LED was an awesome surprise. An improved version of a product that was already perfect. The button gets hidden by wall warts but who am I to complain?

Crazy easy to install and operate yet integrates with other platforms like RTI and Control Four
Crazy easy to install and operate yet integrates with other platforms like RTI and Control Four. I have lots of Shelly devices and they all work incredibly well.

Great little plug
Great little plug. Does what I need it to do. I will say theWiFi range on the plug is very short. The Zigbee range is much greater and is what I use
