Our Home Tech Editor David Ludlow put this smart plug through its paces, and gave it the full 5 out of 5 treatment, concluding that it “gets just about everything right”.
“It’s small enough not to block other plugs; it has energy monitoring; Matter support lets it work with almost every smart home system; and it’s exceptionally good value,” he concluded.
We’d say that value point is even more pronounced following Amazon’s price cut. This cheap smart plug is listed as a ‘Limited time deal’ though, so don’t hang about.
