Kasa SmartPlug HS103P4, Smart Home Wi-Fi Outlet Works with Alexa, Echo, Google Home & IFTTT, No Hub Required, Remote Control, 15 Amp, UL Certified, 4-Pack, White

I bought the Kasa Smart Plug HS103P4 thinking I’d use one or two and forget about the rest. WRONG. These things are addictive. I now control more of my home from my phone than a Bond villain with a control panel. Lights? Boom—off. Coffee maker? On before I even roll out of bed. Christmas tree? I summoned holiday cheer with my voice like some kind of festive wizard.Setup was so easy I thought I missed a step. (I didn’t. They’re just that simple.) The app is smoother than a jazz saxophone, and scheduling my lamp to turn on at sunset has convinced my dog that ghosts are real.Also, there’s something oddly satisfying about shouting, “Hey Google, turn off the living room!” and watching it obey like I’ve finally ascended to smart home royalty.No hub? No problem. These plugs are like the Swiss Army knife of laziness. UL certified too, so they’re not just smart—they’re safe, which is important because I don’t trust myself to not start a fire with my toaster.In conclusion: 10/10, would automate my life again. Buy them before they become self-aware and unionize.

Purchased with specific intent to integrate with my Home Assistant control.TP-Link / Kasa support told me their plugs would NOT work with HA.However, there is an "Integration" in HA for TP-Link.I already had the Kasa app for a smart switch, and when I plugged these in, they were swiftly recognized and easily set up in the app.Then installed TP-Link integration in HA, searched, instantly set up and was controlling it with Home Assistant :-)These plugs are about 25% shorter on long axis than my GoSung plugs from a few years ago. Very nice compact design.Cons:... None? Dang I realllllly appreciate it's compactness and easy integration!-Just tall enough to block use of another thick plug in some dual or multi outlet cases. However, all smart plugs are like this, as it needs to fit a 5v AC/DC converter, a reed relay, microcontroller and WiFi card in the compact volume.Bottom Line is I am an instant fan and grateful it worked EASILY for my intended purpose with Home Assistant "integration", and would not hesitate to recommend or buy more if needed.

Big fan of TPLink’s Kasa products. I also use TPLink Deco mesh so I can control the devices either in the Kasa app or the Deco app after they’ve been initially setup in the Kasa app. Quick response time, even when using home assistants like Alexa or Google Home. I’ve used Kasa products for over 5 years now and I have never had any of them fail, their products seem well built. As for ease of use, it couldn’t be easier, there’s one button on the device for all functions. As long as you are comfortable using apps to configure devices you can’t go wrong.

I love these so much that I’m in the process of converting every lamp in my house to run through these outlets. I can’t get anyone else around here to turn off a light, so I set these up to automatically turn on every light in my living room around sunset, and turn off at 11:00. They’re especially helpful for hard-to-reach switches (they’re great on my picture lights because the switch on the cord falls behind the couch, and now I don’t have to move furniture to turn them on).I also love that I can control every light in the house from the app. It let me set up a shortcut on my iPhone Home Screen, too, so I can control everything quickly and easily. I’ve seen these pop up on daily deals a lot, so I usually wait until they go on sale and then stock up.

Works

This product is designed for convenience and that it does very well. And the price is more than reasonable. I forgot how to reset and activate the remaining units ( I activated the first unit more than a year ago), and Remnard Miranda of Technical support did an excellent job of walking me through it. I highly recommend this!

Great Wall plugs that are Matter compatible and work effortlessly with Amazon Alexa. I have several of these for lamps throughout the house. All are fully automated with Amazon Alexa skills. Very easy to connect to WiFi, plus they have never dropped connection. Forget the rest, buy these!

Smart plugs are easy to setup and have all the features you could want plus they keep their app updated and integrated with everything. I personally use them with smartthings and HA.
