I made the mistake previously and bought a slightly cheaper matter alternative to this product that had a smaller form factor that can only manage 10 amps that died on me in two weeks. After realizing my mistake, I went back to the company I trust and have bought countless matter devices from and saw that this better plug had better quality components (e.g., switch, transformer, etc.) and can operate 15 amp devices! In case you didn't know, most electrical outlets can operate a maximum of 15 amps (sometimes 20 with the outlet that has a slit in one of the eyes). I believe that I have purchased eight of these plugs for my home and office locations and the reliability, performance, and quality of these items are almost too good to be true for the price. I remember the days of the original wifi plugs with difficult setup and unreliable connections. Those days are gone! Finally, a smart plug that offers subchannel connectivity that does not congest already overloaded 2.4ghz channels. Many people don't realize that it's often no so much the product itself with older wifi plugs but the limits of older technology which are the reasons old wifi plugs are so hard to install or eventually fail due to limited wifi channels. Matter technology changes everything! My electronic personal assistant was instantly fighting me to set up these plugs even before I was able to open up the plug application! It is that easy. Just remember, this is new technology that eventually will make it's way to wifi 6 and higher routers meaning that if you likely do not have the firmware update yet, then you are stuck buying a hub that can support it. Even this being a relatively brand new standard, this plug works as advertised.

This was a very good purchase, I bought it to use during Christmas time, I wanted something that I could manage from my phone so I got thick pack of 2 one for my Christmas tree and one for my Christmas lights that way I could time it from my phone to turn on at a specific time and turn off at a specific time and it did exactly what i needed it to do 100% recommend

Easy to install with the app. Respond quickly with Alexa. Don’t overheat and seem safe to use.

I got these because I wanted to try out Matter. Saw them on sale and based on the reviews these looked like a good starting point. I wanted to try these using Hubitat and Alexa to see how they worked. Hubitat: Hubitat does not commission matter devices yet, so I had to use the AiDot app. Adding the first plug was extremely easy. Once it was connected it automatically updated the firmware. This is a big plus. Added the outlet to Hubitat with zero issues (had to change the device type from device to generic matter outlet). Works perfectly. Alexa: Using the Alexa app didn't go so well. Alexa app kept failing at connecting your device. I reset the outlet (hold the button for 5 seconds until it flashes red) and tried again. Same problem. So I reset it again and added with the AiDot app. Again no issues and it updated the firmware. So this meant the outlet was not faulty. So once the firmware was completed, I deleted it from the AiDot app and reset the outlet. I tried the Alexa app again and it failed. So I moved the outlet 2 feet from one of my echo dots (previously it was about 15-20 feet away from 2 echo dots) and it connected and worked with no problems. Conclusion: I prefer to have my devices controlled locally vs cloud. I also don't prefer to use Alexa Skills if I don't have to. Too many times both Amazon and the other party are making changes and it will cause skills to stop working or have issues. So I removed the one from Alexa and added back in with the AiDot app to use with Hubitat. I have been using them for 2 weeks now and have had no issues with them falling of the network or not responding via Hubitat. We will see long term how they work. Not sure if the problem others are having with these are related to Alexa, firmware not updating or their wifi network. Not clear if the initial issues I had were an Alexa app/dot issue, the firmware, the distance from the dots or both. If I get anymore I will try to do more troubleshooting to see if I can figure it out. Hopefully as Matter matures there will be less issues like these.

Better than govee. At age 74 and not tech savvy I was able to install this with alexa and it works. I had a very very difficult time with govee.

Had the smart plug for seven months and it worked great until last night when it died. I use the plug to turn on and off a light, the light turned on, but it never turned off. I tried to turn off the plug with the button and got no response. I tried to reset the plug, but it had no power going through it

The Linkind Matter smart plug was replacing a WEMO smart plug. The Matter plug almost setup itself it was so easy! As my WEMO plugs stop working I will definitely be replacing with these.
