Pros

The kasa smart plugs are so easy to set up and they're great for my outdoor christmas lights and patio lights. They are always available to my home hub (using a hard wired apple tv) and they respond practically instantly. This plug is used for a fount...  Read More

Works great and with the scenes you can have them come on and go off on a schedule.

This defeats the purpose of paying extra to have homekit compatibility. Live customer support is almost nonexistent.

The manufacturer has to do better with honoring their warranties. They require you to mail back bad device on your dime. Postage cost is close to same cost for buying a new one!

Both of them are the same distance from my router by the way. Tried arguing that the plug was advertised as for outdoor use and weatherproof on their brochure, but no luck.

Price


It is very affordable and amazon usually has sales on kasa devices as well.

Competitiveness

I added the device to kasa and named the plugs mosquito fan 1 and mosquito fan 2.

    What is really cool is that it doesnt just have to be a set time on and off

    You can choose to have the sockets activate at sunset or a set time

    Its time to upgrade your old light timer to something like this


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However it takes a minute or two for the kasa to sync with alexa after being unplugged and relocated


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It is evident that a lot of time and effort is pit in to the design development and testing of their products as well as the kasa app note we are using the ios version of their app

    However if your receptacle is horizontally oriented it can be difficult to plug the socket in and close the cover on your inuse waterproof receptacle cover
