    Amazon Smart Plug, works with Alexa – A Certified for Humans Device

    • Basically, this is a useless device, because without the Alexa App on a smart phone, I cannot configure it.
    • Amazon's smartplugs are added directly into the Alexa app and are the best voice command devices I have used!
    • Hopefully, these devices I purchased will not fail prematurely as some recently designed and sold electronic apparatus have done.
    • This was the easiest set up of any “smart” device I have ever used.
    • How the heck do they have the right to break my devices after purchase
    • Thanks for such a FABULOUS device!!!
    • I purchased several of these as I thought they would work with my Alexa devices easier than non-Amazon plugs.
    • Great device!
    • Drops WiFi while all other devices are just fine.
    • It really is a great device to watch over your equipment and electrical bill
    • This has to be one of the easiest electronic devices I have set up in ages.
    • I have gone all in on smart devices in the home

    • but I haven't bought any smart home devices because I was pretty sure I wouldn't understand how to hook them up and didn't understand the hub at all.
    • The device is a little larger than I expected, but there size doesn't interfere with its use.
    • I like the device because it was easy to integrate into my system
    • Bought this device since it works with the new Echo Dots that I outfitted the house with

    • I was so exited to see that amazon was expanding their smart devices line that I jumped on purchasing this
    • worked for a day, then just goes server unresponsive, device unresponsive
    • But the real problem is the device being unresponsive
    • The compatibility of other smart devices.
    • Another innovative device from Amazon.
    • Everyone who uses Alexa smart home technology is familiar with the download app, go through ridiculously silly device setup, then enabling a skill.
    • I plugged it into an outlet and within a few seconds the Alexa app on my phone recognized it as a new device, prompted me to give it a name, and I was all set!

    • Just wanted to make condo dwellers with the Spectrum Community Solutions System aware not to waste time ordering this device.

    • Good device just rather high priced.

    • This device is wonderful.
    • Extremely cool device with lots of uses
    • Not sure why it was so hard to get going, but originally I had a lot of "device Unresponsive" errors.

    • Device is unresponsive."It's not a question of reception -- the plug is no more than 15 feet away from the router, in direct line of sight, with no walls between it.
    • It's not particularly further from my router than any other smart device in my home, but this one is almost always unresponsive leading me to believe that it's Wi-Fi range is poor compared to my many other smart home devices

    • This is a nice device, but getting Alexa to turn on and off a light on a fixed schedule is way way more confusing than it should be
    • I don't appreciate any company purposely trying to pigeonhole me into either buying their products or trying to lock me in their "echo-system" with their products, forcing me to use that company as my "Sole-provider" of smart devices or
    • All I can say is that it is a great device.
    • Nice automation toy ... NOT a dependable security device.
    • Excellent device exceeded expectations
    • The Device works well with the rest of my Alexa Ecosystem.

    • Do an internet search for "Amazon Smart Plug device is unresponsive," see how many articles pop up, then ask yourself if you want this device

    • Will definitely try to get few of these and try to control some of my non-smart devices like and also the charging hub for all my devices
    • and it won't do anything and says "device is unresponsive
    • Since others have managed to setup the Amazon plug, I'll stick with a 1 for the product (it appears that the device itself was working) and 0's for software auto-detection, incorrect setup instructions, and failure to clearly specify 2.4G only, compatibility
