TP-Link - Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Plug Mini - White

Purchased this outlet to have it set to turn on and off while we’re not home and on vacation.well, i. Ever remove it on the outlet since then. Works very good and i love it. Will recommend this to a friend for sure. I can control it using the app, set schedules and even use it while im at home. Very convenient.

The HS105 turns any of your standard devices into a "Smart" device. Once you start using this, you will quickly see the benefits. This is especially apparent if you own an Amazon Alexa device (echo/dot). The build quality is very good. It is sturdy and certainly doesn't feel flimsy or cheap. The design of this product is where it really shines. One of the biggest complaints of most Smart Plugs is there bulky size which in turn means that they often cover/obstruct more than one power outlet. I was pleased to find that TP-Link has overcome this issue with this newly designed Smart Plug. What's more impressive is how simple the solution was – making a wider Smart Plug, instead of a taller Smart Plug! Good move TP-Link! Since this is considerably smaller, I was worried that the range (distance away from the Wi-Fi router) would be affected. I had no issues, and I was able to plug this device a reasonable distance away from my Wi-Fi router. The scheduling aspect is great! There are a lot of variables you can set. Time (hours and minutes, am/pm), switch action (on or off), and repeat (days of week - you can select one individual day, every day, or a combination of days). A programmed event requires two "events" in the app, a switch action "on" and a switch action "off". This is useful if you have a routine with turning on/off a device in your home. Some uses I have for this HS105 are for lamps, entertainment units, irons, fans or just about anything you want to conveniently turn on/off or set timers for. Overall this is a fantastic Smart Plug that works flawlessly. This review was submitted as part of a free sample program.

The "TP-Link - Smart Wi-Fi Plug Mini - White" is twinned with Amazon Alexa so this product works with voice control. We turn the lights off or on without getting out of bed.

This model is much smaller than previous version. Doesn't block other outlet. Works fime.

This has been working well for me since install. Not a single hiccup. I have this integrated into my Home Assistant Smart Home setup and it has worked every time I have called actions from Home Assistant or Alexa. The Kasa app is intuitive and easy to use also.

Excellent item, I purchased 4 bubs and 2KASA smart plugs to control my two bedroom lamps. This is awsome and so inviting when we enter the room. Google lights on and wam. You must down load KASA application and link to Google assist, very easy, too 15 min for whole process. Once the KASA application verifies you account then you can start the programming process. It will search for your plugs and ask you to confirm that the plug is blinking blue and pink(yes) move to next step. Select which icon you want to store as your visual icon and process with be complete but if you have Google Assistant you need to like the accpunts together to work in Google. Your lights are now ready. Yessssssss. Loving it. Or whole is almost a smart home. A few more items and our home will be smarter than us. Enjoy.

I am sure this works fine for someone who it is targeted for. My purpose for this review is not to throw this product under the bus, it is to warn potential purchasers of it when it comes up on the, "since you bought HomePod, you will probably need this." page. I purchased this because there was an implication that it would work with the Apple HomePod that I purchased in the same transaction. If it is possible for it to work with the HomePod, I have not been able to figure it out. On the outside of the box, like 99% of all similar products, it says it will work with Google Assistant and Alexa. Nothing about HomePod. What I want is something to work with my existing HomePod, and not have different apps on my phone to control every different device in my home, and such a thing does not seem to exist.
