Kasa Smart Plug Power Strip KP303, Surge Protector with 3 Individually Controlled Smart Outlets and 2 USB Ports, Works with Alexa & Google Home, No Hub Required , White

Use this in garage to control 2 shop light chains and a fan. So very convenient. Ive chosen Kasa for my smart house needs with success and great performance for all units - 5 cameras, doorbell camera, front and back door light switches, several outlets and LED strips in the screen room.

Well, its sleek looking. Handsome even. I saw this power strip and thought to myself well thats a good lookin power strip right there. That gets a solid 1 star..aside from the fact that Amazon doesnt allow zero. Im sure if i plugged things into it, it might work, but i could have bought 2x excellent APC dumb strips for the price. Ive got a google Wifi setup at home. First generation. NLS-1304-25. If you are familiar with mesh routers, aside from the netgear orbi, most of them have both 2.4 and 5 ghz broadcasted under the same SSID. Now most smart home devices, while all 2.4 ghz devices, can be classified per a google wifi setup as 1. Works out of the box 2. Works with a bit of gymnastics 3. Does not work / cant even get past setup Unlike the star rating, this fall under #3. ive got 4 Kasa plugs to my name and one other setup for another person. I could say I was a fan. Not my first time setting up a plug/plug like device in the TP link app. I had just failed attempt 21 with a TP link support person after failing setup 20 times myself. Not an exaggeration. i like even numbers. As part of the self troubleshooting process, i have tried the setup with 3 devices (2x Android, 1x ipad). Between each setup I did a reset by holding down one of the buttons on the switch to reset it back to a green/orange color and plugged/unplugged . Within said attempts, Ive tried things like only using an android device that works on the 2.4 ghz frequency (Android 8.1, some cheap LG), walking far away from my wifi to force a 2.4 ghz connection with my other android (pixel 3), and using the ipad. I can get as far as freezing on the attempting to connect the strip to the network or to the cannot connect to wifi screen, but no further. Rounding out hour 3.5 with support. Being escalated now to their senior engineer. Come on TP link. Ive already been burned by your Archer C8 router...gave TP link a chance with single plugs and was impressed..now this. Lets turn this review into 3 or 4 stars. EDIT: Follow the definition of insanity. Keep trying for hours. Do the same thing and eventually it will work. Actual troubleshooting got me nowhere. TP link support is useless. They will give you troubleshooting steps that you JUST DID and JUST TOLD them you did. This is staying at 1 star. Terrible product. Worse support. Powering on / item devices became hit or miss. Id hear the click but nothing. Id have to physically hit the switch button then hit it again for it to work. Stay away from this product. Get their single plugs if you are going to get their smart plug

First, I want to note that I love the Kasa smart home products. I use many of them to make my daily life a bit similer. They are always easy to set up, integrate well with my Amazon Alexa, and match my white minimal aesthetic. Therefore, I have a brand bias, and when I saw the small smart powerstrip, I knew I needed it to match my larger powerstrip from the same company. The power strip does all it says and has been a great smart home feature. It is the perfect way for me to make sure my flat iron is turned off after I leave the house, by utilizing their app. Or have Alexa turn on my aromatherapy wax warmer when I am already laying in bed relaxing. On the other hand, it is a little bit expensive compared to other options in the category. It is certainly not something anyone needs in their life. But it is a luxury that will make your life just a little bit easier.

I love the option to turn the outlets off individually

I have grown to love Kasa products. I own a multitude of plugs and power strips and they work flawlessly. I highly recommend.

Just what I needed!

The extension cord is a little bulkier than expected but works great. It paired with the app super easily. I utilize this to ensure certain devices are off while I’m at work.

Setting up was a little difficult because the device wouldnt find the WiFi from my phone. I ended up switching my wifi router to manual channel selection on the 2.4ghz. Once I did this, I had to relogin to my wifi on my phone, but it worked to get the kasa plugs connected. Once that was was figured out, it was off to the races easily assigning plugs and connecting them to Alexa.

Works good

Just awesome. Works exactly as it should and as I wanted it to!
