Does what it's supposed to do

Set up was pretty easy. In the sun the light is dim which made things tricky but when I followed the instructions and did it indoors and next to Wi-Fi everything worked great. Integrating with Alexa is very easy. The only downside I have is that the body is hard plastic. I'm not sure how durable it will be, but for now it's what I wanted.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Doesn't go with everything

Stops electrical work

So this seems like good value for money. Separate plugins that can be controlled via Alexa and it was around 3 hours. The problem is that every socket has a fuse that is very sensitive and can easily be blown. I used mine with Christmas decorations and after about 3 hours of work the outlet stopped working. Then another. The problem is that these fuses cannot be reset - instead they kill the outlet. I'm not sure how it's supposed to work outside.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Requires outlet

The best on the market.

I bought a pair of these for my outdoor Christmas lights and they worked better than expected. Each outlet can work independently, unlike most other brands, I can plug in multiple devices and turn them on or off at different times. The app is by far the easiest to use of all home automation apps. I had no problems setting up or disconnecting from my WiFi. I bought more to use in my landscaping to control water features and lighting. I would definitely buy this product again and possibly replace

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Slightly torn

I am a verified buyer and this product is worth nothing.

I bought this outdoor 'smart socket' (which probably has an IQ of around 52 so it's not that smart) and after going through all the setup processes multiple times I can't get it to work control my iPhone, I can't integrate it with Alexa. I need an outside outlet to control my roof heating elements (I live in the mountains and have decent internet) and this is clearly a waste of time. One recommendation in the meager guide was to go into settings and reset everything. I still can't find the…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Frequency

Replaces Legacy Garden Light Control

I needed a 3 socket smart plug for my landscape lighting as it had 3 zones and 3 separate transformers. This smart plug fits perfectly. The old manual light switches have been removed and replaced with a smart switch with 3 individually controlled outputs. Programming was easy, connected to my network in seconds, and now I can control it from almost anywhere as long as I have a cellular connection or Wi-Fi signal. Everything is less than $20.

Pros
  • Remote Control & Voice Control: Compatible with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and SmartThings. All data is securely transmitted and stored on Amazon AWS servers in the United States. Control your devices by voice, just say "Alexa, turn on the Christmas tree".
Cons
  • Only available in black

Super simple connection

I already have a couple of Meross smart switches (I like them a lot) and I need an outdoor smart plug. Unfortunately, I didn't see the Meross smart plug the first time and ordered another one. I spent almost 2 hours trying to connect it to my wifi with no success so I returned it. Then I saw and ordered the Meross Smart Plug. Since I already had the Meross app, it took me less than 2 minutes to add the smart plug to my network and then add it to various Alexa routines. It also has 3 plugs, each

Pros
  • 3 sockets Design: Equipped with 3 individually controllable sockets. 3 outputs WORK INDEPENDENTLY. With the Mediatek IoT chipset, the meross outdoor smart plug has a longer WiFi range and a slower battery life. Also, make sure your phone is connected to your 2.4GHz home WiFi network when setting up the outdoor WiFi port.
Cons
  • disappears

Misleading Description

So far it works well with good signal reception in my yard. Dissatisfied with the misleading description that each fork is independent. That's true for the Meross app, but completely wrong for Alexa. The only thing Alexa can do is toggle the plug on and off. This prevents use with Alexa. Bought this plug to control the fountain and lights at different times of the year. I needed the plugins to work independently through Alexa so I didn't have to use another app to control them. I would not buy…

Pros
  • Guaranteed Safety: FCC/ETL Certified (Reference Number 5012797) The Wi-Fi Outdoor Smart Socket is equipped with a fireproof housing and an overload protection circuit. Never let other inferior forks compromise your family's safety.
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
