Power adapter and cord get VERY HOT

Instructions require some work but I finally figured out how to work with them. Luckily I only have one element plugged in at the moment because when all the switches are on it gets VERY, VERY HOT. I made sure the extension cord wasn't laying on the carpet or touching any fabric to avoid catching fire. With hope. I don't drive it when I'm away. You must turn off all switches when you first plug it in (including USB) or they will stay on. There is also a blue light ring for the POWER button. , which stays activated when something is activated. Personally, I can't sleep with the lights on, but for some, this can be a good night light. It took a while to connect to Alexa and Alexa doesn't always recognize it. cord and that it doesn't take up all the space in the outlet. Because the product gets so hot, I'm too worried about a house fire to plug in more than one appliance at a time, making an extension cord with four plug-in switches unfeasible. There were intentions, but the product needs to be recalled and repaired. I will use WeMo or try another brand.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
