It doesn't show power usage like some of the other products out there, but otherwise a solid smart plug.

I have lost power to the house and it reconnects to the WiFi on it’s own which is really nice.

However, like many people, all of these plugs stopped reconnecting to my account if I were to move them to a new electrical socket or if they lost power even briefly.

The router needed to lose power and stay off long enough to allow its capacitors to lose power.

The ability to track electrical usage (as does the KASA smart power strip)

We had a WeMo plug but anytime we lost power it was a hastle to get it reconnected

These plugs setup just fine, but if moved to a new electrical socket or if they lose power they will not reconnect to my Alexa account.

Well, the geniuses who built this decided that if your Wi-Fi connection drops it should kill the power to the device that's connected

I already own a wemo smart plug but have found that Alexa and my phone lose connection to it when I lose power

Even after power outages which would mess up my former plugs.

No more reaching for the rocker switch, accidentally disconnecting messing loose power cords

the smart plug met its Waterloo, but more about this later (see below).The plug, though, helped me find the KASA Smart Power Strip.

It may be useful to have smart home gadgets, especially if you're say caring for someone with dementia or you yourself have memory issues of any kind, but the stuff sucks up power and is expensive

The first time we lost power for 2 hrs having this plug it wouldn't work any more
