Review on Smart Surge Protector Cord Extender With Alexa & Google Assistant - Geeni Surge 4-Outlet, 2 USB, 3 Feet. by Jaye Cleveland

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Installation is a bit hard but overall great purchase

Pros:- Very Convenient: For $19 (3 outlets), no more bending and reaching for awkward corners to turn on your cute lamps and LED light strip every night! Good for my back so yes!- Good customer service! Kudos to Ariya and Joel (I hope I got the names right I am sorry) who assisted me doing no less than 8 resets while being professional and friendly too, love it. Also love the call back option so I don't have to get brainwashed by waiting line music.- Once it's hooked it changed my life! I had a lot home decor lamps and LED wall signs and having them turned on/off automatically every night was a godsend. Also imagine what you can do to use this function to create the ultimate Halloween experience, can't wait to replace other outlet in my home to scare the crap out of people :DDD- Shareable! But I made a mistake and let my brother join the household and he was just mess with the light to mess with me. Be careful with who you share the control with I guess. (I removed him, which is also a pro for the appCons- I like to considered myself tech-savvy but this honestly took me a while (because my router was not cooperating :/ ) but can be resolved by calling them. Be penitent my friend <:)- No individual buttons on the device to turn on/off manually, has to go through the app so I can see it being frustrating if one of them not reacting to the app's command.- The indicator lights are pretty bright so hide them if you hate that hue in a dark roomOther- Like all electronic devices nowadays we don't know how long it will last! But I will just enjoy the ride while it's still running.- I am only using light control and lightbulbs from this company but like all smart household appliances, read the fine print to see the privacy policy if you are wary about the location and recording data being collected.

Pros
  • The built-in Alexa and Google Assistant integration allows you to control your devices with your voice, making it easier than ever to turn your lights on and off, adjust your thermostat, and more
Cons
  • May not be compatible with surge protector replacement batteries
