Game Changer!
One of my best purchases ever!I’m old, & don’t navigate well in dark rooms. I also hate overhead lighting, & stubbornly & lazily refuse to flick on that wall switch. I’m a table-lamp girl all the way. If I’m forced to flick that wall switch to illuminate a pitch-dark room, it causes me to have to go into the room to the opposite wall, turn on my lamp, then return to the other side of the room, back to the wall switch to turn off the overhead. My only two falls were due to walking through a room with dim lighting & tripping over something that shouldn’t have been there & wasn’t illuminated in dim lighting. Stubborn & lazy, I admit.I originally bought one set of these Meross smart plugs for my bedroom, to be able to turn on my bedside lamp before I entered the room. What a game changer! I fell in love with these plugs, & bought enough sets for all my lamps! Plus a few extras.My house is small, but with a large, open-space living room, dining room, & foyer. There are 10 small lamps scattered throughout the space. With these Meross plugs, I can use my iPhone to create the lighting ambiance that is most comfortable for a given activity. I can’t express how much I love this technology.Set-up is easy, even for an old gal like me. Instructions are included. The only thing that wasn’t clear (unless I missed it) is that you have to plug the Meross smart plug into an outlet before you scan the QR code. You don’t have to use the intended outlet for the set-up process. You can use any outlet that is easy to reach & easy to do the scan. You can then set it up, name it (very important to name the plugs!), plug it into its intended outlet, then plug your lamp or other equipment into the Meross smart plug.Meross Smart Plugs work perfectly with my Apple Home app. I did the set-up through Home, & I manage my smart plugs through Home. I never installed the Meross app. I use my Apple TV as my hub, so I didn’t have to purchase a hub separately.I have experienced the issue mentioned in other reviews: sometimes a smart plug, or unrelated group of smart plugs, will stop working & read “No response” on the app. My solution so far has been to uninstall the affected smart plug(s), & re-do set-up from scratch. That’s happened twice in the several months I’ve had them. It’s a little inconvenient, especially if the plug is behind furniture. But it’s a minor inconvenience for the unbelievable convenience of controlling my lamps so easily.Since I’m technologically challenged, I watched several YouTube videos before I ordered, & afterwards too, to get myself familiar with the process. It was really helpful.I highly recommend Meross Smart Plugs, both the single plugs & the dual plugs. Before ordering, make a plan. Get dual plugs for 2 lamps on the same table, like a foyer table or a desk or a buffet. Anything that will be sharing a wall outlet. You can control both lamps separately. You can also save $$$ by planning your smart home before buying.Next up, Christmas lights! And maybe a smart bulb for my porch light!Meross Smart Plugs. Game-changer!

Works great
Easy to set up

Sure Makes Things Easier
I probably have 30 Meross smart devices between wall switches and smart plugs. Never had any problems with them and have had some of them for years. They are linked to Alexa to perform various functions.One of the big usages for these devices is Christmas decorations. They are scattered all over my house and outside. Instead of going around and turning on and off each decoration each day, I have them all plugged into Meross smart plugs; and grouped them into one Christmas “group” on the Alexa app. Now I just tell Alexa “turn on Christmas” and all the decorations come on at the same time. Even our tree, which has Twinkly lights on it.Got rid of all the mechanical/electronic timers, and now Alexa controls everything via the Meross smart switches or plugs (on at dusk, off at dawn; or at certain times). Occasionally Alexa misses her cue and fails to turn things on or off, but that is not the fault of the Meross devices – they just work.

Very Low Quality & Essentially Useless
I installed these, they seemed to work fine. But then one by one each one would “not respond.” The only option was to forget the accessory. When you forget the accessory in HomeKit and try to reset it, HomeKit says the accessory already belongs to another home and cannot be set up.THESE WILL WORK FOR A MONTH OR TWO THEN DISCONNECT. ONCE THAT HAPPENS, THEY BECOME USELESS PLASTIC WASTE. THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO WITH THEM

De momento los utilizo para manejar unas tiras led en mi habitación, se integran fácilmente con Apple HomeKit sin necesidad de tener un HomePod, funcionan perfectamente

Diseño básico, compacto, intuitivo y rápido para configurar
