These smart switches are soooo easy to setup and they stay connected. Ive had Wemo smart switches for 7-8 years and they are a pita to setup. I ordered these to replace a new Wemo I just ordered and returned to Amazon because it just wouldnt stay connected and required 20 minutes of trying to get it reconnected. These Meross switches are so easy you wont believe it. Shame on you Wemo. No more Wemo products for me. As I write this review I have another 4-pack of these switches in my cart!

These are a great updated or starter for any smart home. I recommend Meeros smart plugs.

I have purchased about a dozen of these for different houses. They are generally easy to set up with HomeKIt. However, there are a number of inconsistencies that seem to point to manufacturing issues: 1) Out of the box, some dont set up easily, others do. Same wifi, same location. 2) Some seem to lose connectivity once set up, others dont. Again, same wifi and same location. A few will frequently be updating when I want to control them. I like them, like the price point and buy in sets of, but may have to look for alternatives if 25-50% of the pack arent useable.

I love Apple, my husband loves Google/Android. The kids have an Alexa smart speaker. These plugs can play with them all. Tip: take a photo of the QR code from the plug with one device and set up in the app with another. That way no need to worry about awkward positions to capture the QR code while it is plugged in for initial set-up. Also set-up in Meross app and then add it to your Home in Home kit, Alexa, etc. I have especially liked having a smart plug on the router, since I tend to reboot at least once a month, and the kids’ room so I can let them read a little and still turn out the light without getting out of bed. Unfortunately the outlet tied to their wall switch isn’t in reach of where we needed to put the lamp, so I also use smart speakers to turn the light on and off via the smart switch through the day. I can also turn on lights for them at night to help them go look for their blanky or stuffy they forgot in the living room without needing to get up again myself. Works great for Christmas lights too.

The plug was easy to install and integrate to Apple’s Home app. After the first one, I spent less than 2 minutes each on the following ones. Unfortunately, 1 out of 4 in the pack failed. It would not be recognized by my home network multiple times, and I noticed the power button was not able to manually switch on/off a connected table lamp. I contacted Meross and provided the HomeKit ID of the defective plug and finally gained approval from its customer services to send me a replacement under warranty (!?). The new one works fine.

How smart is it? When used with Apple Home Kit not really that smart. The outlets require standalone software/app (Meross)to operate which can then be used to integrate with Apple Home Kit. Not as easy as advertised.

Owned these for a year. When they work, they’re great. But most of the time, they’re a headache. Getting them setup is a pain. It’s honestly a game of luck if they will connect or not. They are very picky about whether they will connect to your router. We switched routers twice this year, and they were not compatible with the new router for some unknown reason (?). The reason I got rid of these is because we switched to TMobile 5G internet. If you make the switch too, do NOT buy these plugs! They will not work with TMobile 5G for some reason. I got the new Wemo Thread-based plugs that do not use WiFi and they have been flawless. Spend the extra money to get the new Thread technology, especially if you have TMobile 5G.

When I had first purchased, I had some problems with wifi reliability and I left a dissatisfied review. The company reached out to me and offered to replace the plugs with a more recent version. Everything works great now. I used to buy my smart light bulbs from a different manufacturer, but I had problems with those too. So from now on, I am buying my smart bulbs from Meross, they stand behind their products.

Wow, seems like the search has ended I been looking for a HomeKit compatible plug and I do extensive research before buying this kind of gadgets, unfortunately haven’t found a trusted one and ended buying a “TP” product but seems like they are getting behind the Meross brand eventually I’m switching over Meross products because with my experience they are reliable enough. I switched my MyQ garage opener for the Meross and no regrets and replacing all my smart plugs as well and having the option of Apple’s HomeKit is a plus I been using Google Home integration but if HomeKit is available I prefer it 100% I also updated to the Meross Collie on their Indiegogo campaign and I’m very happy with the result the other Meross worked good but as mentioned I prefer the HomeKit integration with no doubt. I’m using this plug for my coffe maker, bedroom salt lamp and security cameras and they work wonderfully with no disconnection or malfunction as others I have tried, really happy with this smart mini plugs. Meross app work extremely well and gets constant updates so they care about their products and customers and that is most important thing, I’m a happy new customer and going to replace everything to Meross in the near future. Thank you Meross A happy customer,

I started buying Meross Smart MiniPlugs about a year ago, attracted by their price, and a little nervous about their quality. I have found the MiniPlugs to be solidly built, relatively easy to set up, and have had no reliability issues. I also bought a smart wall switch and wall dimmer switch from Meross. Same good experience with both of those. Although I believe you can add these devices to Home without installing the Meross app, you will not be able to get upgraded firmware for the devices without having a Meross app and account. This is not a big issue - the app is free, and doesnt trouble you with notifications or junk mail, etc. Apple Home will tell you that a device update is available. You simply use the app, click update and its done. I bought another 4 mini plugs during a cyber Monday deal saving about $2 on each device. Even without the discount, these smart plugs are an excellent value.
