Amazon Smart Plug, Works with Alexa, Simple Setup, Endless Possibilities

The Amazon Smart Plug 2-Pack is fantastic! Setup was incredibly simple — I had both plugs up and running in just a few minutes using the Alexa app. They connect seamlessly with Alexa, so I can control lamps and appliances with just my voice or through routines. These smart plugs work reliably and have opened up so many possibilities around the house. I love being able to schedule lights, automate fans, and even control things when I’m away from home. They’re compact, unobtrusive, and haven’t caused any connectivity issues. Super affordable for a 2-pack and extremely user-friendly. Perfect for anyone looking to start or expand their smart home setup!

This Smart Plug is so convenient to have and works great with my Alexa devices. I should have bought it sooner. I love that you don’t have to go into a dark room and fumble around to find the lamp switch. I just tell Alexa to turn on the table lamp or turn it off. I highly recommend that you buy these Smart Plugs. It was so easy to set up too.

Love these smart plugs. Setup was incredibly easy, and they connected right away. I use them for lamps and small appliances, and being able to control everything from my phone is super convenient. Small downside: They take up a bit of space on the outlet. Overall, very reliable and perfect for a smart home setup.

Works perfect to plug in lamps and set a routine so you don't come home to a dark house. Also works great for Christmas lights! Set up took all of 5 minutes.

I picked up this Amazon Smart Plug specifically to use with my Christmas tree, and it has worked flawlessly. Setup took less than a minute—Alexa detected it instantly, and I was able to name the plug “Christmas Tree” so I can control it with simple voice commands. Now I can turn the tree lights on and off hands-free, which has been incredibly convenient during the busy holiday season. The scheduling feature in the Alexa app is also great. I set the lights to come on automatically in the evening and turn off before bedtime, so I don’t have to reach behind the tree or remember to unplug it. The plug fits securely in the outlet and doesn’t block the second socket, which is a big plus when you need multiple things plugged in. The only drawback is that it only works with Alexa, but if your home already uses Echo devices, this smart plug makes decorating and daily routines so much easier—especially for holiday lighting.

Works well, easy to set up and easy to use.

I have the echo show 21 which controls my security system and bought theses smart plugs to control appliances/lights . The instructions are very simple to set up but as soon as I opened the Alexa App and plugged in the smart plug the echo show immediately recognized it and I did not have to go through any set up steps. For now I have them set up to turn things on and off at specific times. Works great. Couldn't be happier.

So I’m kind of new to the amazon device family. We just got our echo a few months ago. I’ve been a prime member for over 10 years so I’m familiar with how amazon has changed life as we knew it (for me anyway). I saw the amazon smart plug when I was searching for any brand smart plug that had Alexa control with it. It’s been in my cart saved for later for at least a month! I finally decided to just pre order it so that I could review it and hopefully help other people that are like me and have fallen way behind in the tech field. For reference I’m an almost 34 year old mom of 2. This means that my 8 year old stole my iPad, iMac, and I haven’t had a computer of my own in about 4 years! So I do everything from my iPhone. I’ve had some weird issues with our echo and my Alexa app that it will just randomly pause a song so I’m not sure what that is about. ANYWAY! I received my new amazon smart plug the day it was released (so glad it’s not like a new iPhone or PlayStation where people camp out ahead of time or do people still do this??). It was easier than I expected but harder than was described in the listing because my Alexa didn’t just recognize it. Setup: Since my Alexa didn’t recognize it on its own, I had to unplug the smart plug and quickly scan the code on the back of the plug, then plug it back in fast so that when it scanned for it it would see it plugged in. After that it was very simple. I was able to plug in my baby monitor and then tell Alexa to “turn off plug one” and it turned off! It is so cool! Future: I think homes will end up being built with these right into the electrical system. Maybe they already are. Comparing: With so many different brands offering smart plugs with Alexa integration I can’t see myself buying any more than 1 for $25. Too many are 2 for $20. While it’s nice to have the amazon support backing this up, I just can’t afford to fill my home with them at such a high cost comparative to other brands that do the same exact thing. Overall: If you can afford to fill your plugs with these then do! This smart plug is easy and awesome! But if you’re on a tight budget like I am, I would try a different brand first and see if those will work just as well. Every time I purchase something online, I always check the reviews.
