Review on meross Smart Power Strip for Apple HomeKit, Siri, Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings | WiFi 🔌 Surge Protector: 4 AC Outlets, 4 USB Ports, 6ft Extension Cord | Voice and Remote Control by Keith Bradley

I joined the Meross ecosystem about 6 months ago when I installed Meross Smart Garage Devices on two of my garage doors. Ever since then I've been hooked on everything they offer. When I saw they had this smart power strip I had to try it. It was a great purchase and meets my needs perfectly. First off, make no mistake, it's larger than your typical (non-smart) power strip, but it's a trade-off for added functionality. And in fact. it's not that big. I have to say it seems well built though. The four outputs are controlled individually via app or voice assistant, but the four USB ports are controlled as a group. Not a problem for me, but worth mentioning. I also find that the jacks emit an audible click even when powered on or off, but USB is silent. Again, not a problem, but worth mentioning. Connecting to Alexa was easy enough, but I had a small issue trying to default to the Apple Home Kit instead of Alexa. I'm not sure if this is an issue with this device or Alexa. Anyway, after a few minutes everything worked. Overall, I am very satisfied and look forward to more new Meross products!
