> 3 dayNot that it doesnt work or that it does, I have no idea if it works or not. I got it bundled with the Dot and I keep looking at it and wondering what I should plug into it. Honestly I have no clue what I should plug into it. I can see well at night and dont need to plug it into a lamp. If I plugged it into a TV or computer I would still have to turn those only manually. Im not about to become the clapper commercial so I really dont know what all the cost is worthy of the very expensive plug. I think that is half the problem I paid so much for the plug Im not thinking that I dont have anything that is plug worthy. Maybe Ill just put the stupid thing on Craigslist or Ebay. I dont really see the need for this thing. The only thing I can think of is a lamp and have the light come on when it gets dark out or when Im out of town so it looks like someone is home but I dont know. I have close neighbors who keep tabs on my house so I dont know. I would plug it in the radio but I have the echo dots that can wake me up with music that I actually want to listen to. I also have an echo that I can use as an alarm clock even though I have never used an alarm clock. I know when I need to wake up and I wake up at the appointed time. Maybe someone in Amazon land can give me an idea what is expensive plug worthy of the expensive plug.

> 3 dayLove this!! Bought 2 Echo Dots at Christmas and was offered a package deal with one of them that included this plug. Got it for my daughter. Her lamp is on the far side of the bedroom and it’s so difficult fumbling in the dark to get to it. She plugged her lamp into this plug and now, when we’re near the door, we just ask Echo to turn on or off the light for us. Wish I had more!! Setup was so easy. Best product to buy if you have Alexa products!

> 3 dayIve got 9 Kasa devices and have the same issue with all of them. They frequently disconnect from Alexa. I am not having an issue with my other 40+ devices of various brands, just Kasa. I bought them because they were inexpensive. You definitely get what you pay for in this case. They have not released a firmware update in forever which makes them a target for hackers.

> 3 dayThis item works very well. We have Lutron Caseta devices throughout the house, but their dimmers and devices are wonky with LED lights sometimes. The on-off binary nature of this TP Link device makes these devices better for things light string lights and some table lamps that use low power. Setup is easy. The only recommendation is to skip reading the paper instructions with the package and setup the device through the Alexa app right out of the box.

Greater than one weekThis outlet was easy to setup and great with alexa. Had no problems yet it connects every time to turn lights on and off. Cost a little more the the cheaper one i bought but work a lot better.

> 3 dayLove that I can turn on a light from downstairs. Currently using for a bedroom lamp - so easy being able to turn on before going upstairs with a toddler or baby. Also can turn off the lamp from in bed so I dont disturb my husband since the lamp is on his side. Will be getting more to use when out of town to have lights turn on and off at random to make the house look lived in. Setup took about 5 minutes including the time necessary downloading the app. Havent tried with Alexa or Google Home yet but seems like it should be easy there as well.

> 3 dayEasy to use. After downloading the Kasa app and setting up the plug on my wifi, it set itself up on Alexa. Plugged my bedroom lamp in and now I can turn it on/off from the phone app or via voice w/my Alexa dot. Honestly only purchased because Amazon offered this device for 99cents. Really good value. Unsure if Id spend the almost $20 listed as normal price for 1 smart plug. I only have Alexa devices in my bedroom. Personally I dont find it that difficult to manually turn the lamp on and off. This was honestly the only item in my room that I can use the plug with. Biggest benefit is I dont have to get out of bed at night to turn off the light.

> 3 dayI like automation. Have one on a desk light, used daily. Has a plug-in slide dimmer on a wire between it and the lamp, so it turns on on a command, and dims from a wire. Have one on my motorcycle trickle charger. I can just turn it on timer for an hour or two to top off the battery, if I feel the bike has not had enough use. I have not scheduled, but would imagine that works well, also. Used it on the Christmas tree, too. Alexa, turn on plug Tree worked great! (Go Brooklyn!) The enclosure could be a little less real-estate hungry...
