Wyze Plug, 2.4GHz WiFi Smart Plug, Compatible with Alexa, Google Assistant, IFTTT, No Hub Required, Four-Pack, White

These plugs are super easy to install, and the app makes it simple to set up schedules that can be applied to one or more devices. The main disadvantage (which dropped a star from this rating) is that if Amazon’s AWS servers go down, you can no longer communicate with these plugs, and they will not automatically change state with the schedule. Rather frustrating when you expect all your Christmas lights to turn on automatically and they don’t because the AWS servers have an issue.

I have now bought a scale and several plugs made by Wyze. They are seriously the most solid/reliable/easy to use connected products. I’m thinking about switching my entire house over to Wyze products. They have earned my trust.

Ive been using Wyze home automation products for a couple of years now. I wanted to keep all the devices within the same product brand and Wyze is reasonably good quality with reasonable prices. A couple of weeks ago, one of my Wyze plugs failed, so I ordered 4 new ones and of the 4 only 1 was able to successfully update the firmware. When the firmware update fails, the plug doesnt work. Ive tried every plug at least 10 times, tried reconfiguring my network, contacted support. Nothing worked. Theyre obviously just defective. Apparently Wyze has some defective product on the market right now and until they fix it, I strongly recommend against purchasing Wyze. In addition, Wyze needs a few products added to their product line. In particular, they need a double wall light switch and wall light switches that dont require a neutral wire. It would also be nice if they would make a bulb camera.

Love these things. Added a bunch to my smart home network and they work perfectly. Sometimes they can be hard to pair up but thats usually app related. Once paired up, they work excellently with both Google Home and Alexa. On/off functionality is awesome to have around the house for lights and devices. Get you some!

Love the product now that it works. Updating the firmware failed 10 or more times on two of my smart plugs. The other two updated fine. I use one for my gardening lights. Plants grow best with 18 hours on and 6 hours of darkness, so the plugs allow me to create a schedule for my grow lights to be on.

I have Wyze plugs, cameras, & doorbell. Love their prices (though dislike the country they come from) I can do anything with my app from across the country. Will always check out their new/older products Give them a try, you wont be disappointed

The Amazon Alexa designation of Certified for Humans (CfH) is very important -- but this item does NOT meet the CfH standard and the CfH designation should be removed from the product description! CfH is great for two reasons: -- electric items that truly have this designation are (very) easy to add-on to Alexa via a 3-step process with no requirement to add a new app. But, perhaps more important, the architecture of CfH is simple, making for better performance and easier maintenance. If your intent is to use an item with Alexa, get a smart plug with CfH. With CfH the smart plug talks directly to the Alexa Echo. Without CfH an item must be registered to its own app -- in this case you have to install the Wyse App, create an account, install and test the plug with Wyse, and then bind the Wyse smart plug to your Alexa account. Later, when you use Alexa to Turn on the Plug -- the command must go to Alexa, then to the Wyse Cloud, then back to Alexa, and (finally) the command is sent to your plug. Not only does this add a delay to the execution of the command, but it also creates dependencies, and opportunities for failures. And, in the future, if you move or get a new modem or router, it will be much harder to re-configure a non-CfH smart Plug.

Tried these because they are about half the price of most competing smart timers. They work most of the time. The app is clunky and not intuitive. Firmware updates quickly upon initialization and the app finds the devices well (more than can be said of some smart home products) but it sometimes fails to turn on or off. And when I try to manually turn on or off a device, it won’t let me. Instead, the digital slider button will flip and then immediately flip back. But I have continued to order and use them on my house plant lights because they don’t tick like manual timers, cost just the same and work *most* of the time.

This is my 3rd set of outlets and they work like they’re supposed to. If you’re looking for an inexpensive smart plug, these aren’t a bad choice. They can work with Home Assistant if you want to do a little extra leg work installing JoshuaMulliken’s integration.

This was my second purchase of Wyze plugs. The first were a bit of a pain to set up because I had to go outside to get far enough away from my router so my phone would switch to the 2Ghz channel, since the plugs only support 2Ghz. But this tactic wasnt working for my new plugs. After extensive online searches I realized that I had purchased a new revision of the plug that uses a Bluetooth connection between the phone and the plug during set up. The two versions look nearly identical so I had no idea. So the upshot is that this revision is far superior to the previous. Way easier to set up. But the packaging or instructions could have been more helpful in identifying which version I had. Apart from that minor detail I am very happy with these plugs. Theyre inexpensive yet reliable. I would buy again. I link them with Google Home but no reason to think they wont also work flawlessly with Alexa.
