Matter Smart Plug with Energy Monitoring, Mini WiFi Plug with Matter Simple Setup(MSS) Feature, Works with Apple HomeKit, Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings, Remote Voice Control, 13A

- Overview - I have been using Meross now for just over a year and I have to say I am mightily impressed with them. A wifi smart plug is much better than one that relies on a hub. I have 11 plugs and 5 cables dotted around my house and it is great to be able to turn them off within their app wherever I am. Meross' move to using Homekit is a gamechanger in my eyes. It makes this plug a standout product for people with a Homekit ecosystem. The extension cable isn't available with Homekit (yet?) but the plug sockets now are! Here is my review of the plug. - Purchase & Delivery - Rest assured that even though this product is from a third-party seller, it is fulfilled by Amazon and swiftly arrives. The price of the Homekit plug is great, especially with the offers and coupons that are often available. - Appearance - I think the Meross plug is quite nice looking compare to other which seem to hang off a plug. It is small enough to easily allow two to be in a double socket and any appliance plug can fit with ease. The finish has changed over the last year from a shiny plastic look to a much better matte finish. - Setup - Setting up was always easy with the Meross app but now you can avoid that altogether if you'd like and just use the Homekit app itself. You can always add it to the Meross app later (which I would recommend for firmware updates). Meross do warn you that if you have any issues connecting, to switch your home wifi to 2.4GHz while you install. - Use - I have used Meross plugs over the last year and can say I have had zero issues with the product. Switching things off while your at work if you forgot is so helpful. I never worry about leaving the iron on anymore! With this Homekit device I can say that I still have had zero issues. It is so much easier having everything under one roof and response times are fantastic. I haven't even started to talk about its safety features, which you can read up in the product listing. - Conclusion - Making my house as smart as possible, I have to say that I have not found a better product. Meross seem to have spotted a hole in the market and jumped in. I have now ordered 10 more Homekit plugs to replace my old ones and I hope Meross brings more Homekit compatibility to its products. (If you are reading this Meross - please can we have a smart 2 gang light switch released (Homekit compatible of course ;-) )

I decided to join my living room lamp to the ever growing list of controllable devices by the sound of my voice. There were many brands available but I opted for the Meross smart Wi-Fi plug model MSS210. I wasn't disappointed! I received the plug reasonably well packed in an Amazon box, and then in its own branded box. This included some very basic instructions but quickly it became apparent that the best way to activate my plug was to download the Meross app on my phone. Using play store I downloaded the Meross smart plug app which is a light blue m symbol on a black background, and then opened the app and followed instructions for pairing the plug and then using it with Alexa. I found these steps quite easy; yes you need to link with your wifi signal and some of the loading tasks take a few minutes to finish. On completion of this I was ready to plug in my lamp, and you can either turn it on by using Alexa and saying "turn on light" or by using the app and switching the device on via the screen prompt. The later will allow me to turn on the lamp when I am not there and therefore offer a degree of safety protection to my property. On the whole I am happy with this purchase, it was reasonably priced and will be used regularly especially on darker nights. I have not yet tried to link with other items so cannot review them but for the purpose of turning on/off my living room lamp it works really well and hence I will score it highly.
