    Great smart plugs and the 3-pack is an excellent value. These are much more compact than previous generations and do not block nearby plugs near as much. I highly recommend these for anyone looking to use them in a small area with other plugs nearby.

    The new generation are much smaller making them able to be used in tighter spaces. However, the app is still outdated and not intuitive when trying to identify what schedules are attached to which wemo outlets. Also, firmware updates tend to make the wemo unmanageable in the app until factory reset. This is annoying if plugged into something you don’t want powering off or is behind a larger object.

    Easy to set up with home kit. WEMO app is a little slow to add but overall good product and great value as a three pack.

    These plugs are a great way to control your holiday lights. I have one on my tree, and another on the outside lights. Setup had gotten much better and is quick. Once setup, you can create a rule to turn the switches on and off at set times. Once setup you can also control these with an app on your phone or link them with Alexa or Google. Nice easy to start making your house smart.

    This is a better plug than the previous versions. It’s more petite and connects to my HomeKit easier. They also print the HomeKit code on the plug which makes it easier to pair should you move it. Love Wemo and won’t use any other smart plug.

    Overall the device works well. I wanted to use it to schedule some smaller Christmas decorations. It met the needs there. I've purchased a few of these. Sometimes setup in the app is simple. With at least one, I did have some setup challenges and wound having to reset a few times to get everything connected. Setting up a schedule was tricky at first. A couple of updates have helped with that. The price was good here since I had reward dollars to spend.

    When I originally bought this, I could not get it to connect to my Wi-Fi. Later on, I did some research and discovered that it would only work using the lower speed hertz. now that it’s hooked up, it works great 95% of the time but that could be Alexa issue not turning it on or off or a long delay even though my other stuff works perfectly fine.

    Needed a smart plug for my shed, and this came right in handy. Not priced too high and got the job done. If you need a smart plug that works with Alexa/Google Assistant/SmartThings, this will work for you

    Compact works as expected. Setup can sometimes be a little difficult. Read and follow the instructions. You must connect to the device as like a wifi router in order to setup. Look for the information on the card included in the box

    Finicky setup

    It’s nice to have the smaller version of these which take up less space on the outlet plate. However these things are finicky when connecting for the first time. Every single time I’ve done it (with at least 3 now) it’s an exasperating process requiring multiple resets, phone reboots, and router restarts. Oddly enough once connected I never have an issue with them again.

    Works as expected. I didn't like that I had to download and install yet another app so that I can make it available to my Nest Mini. I suppose if this was the only smart device in my home I would like the stand alone app. Had a little trouble setting it up - the instructions are written in microscopic fonts and you have to get the little colored lights blinking correctly to demonstrate that it is working right.

    Love having control over items plugged in so that I can easily turn them on or off with my phone or tablet or use the rules I set up. I have rules set up to turn on lamps at sunset so I never have to come home to a dark house ever again. Then they are set to shut off at a designated time. Sure beats the old timers since sunset constantly changes so the lights do not come on in the summer until later in the evening and in winter they are on earlier. Added to my Christmas trees this year and other light up décor in the house that is not convenient to get to plug and unplug. I use one to turn on a "grow light" for my plants in the winter months. This new style is great; so much smaller. I have one of the original WeMo plugs, two of the old version of the mini and three of the small "cubes".

    Easy to set up and works perfectly with my WEMO app and Google Home hub. An affordable timer (purchased on sale) used for Christmas tree and indoor Christmas lights, this timer syncs with other times using rules in the WEMO app.

    Wemo Mini Smart Plug Better than WiFi Smart Plug

    Compared to the Wemo Mini Smart Plug I have had a lot of problem with the WiFi Smart Plug. Half the time it does not work with automations. Then it cannot find it in Wemo app or states unavailable. If I was going to purchase anymore I would go with the Mini. I have not had any problems with those Wemo's. I like the smaller size, which is why I purchased it.
