Pros & Cons
Pros
The kasa app is strait forward and has some good scheduling programs. Manual action is a momentary switch rather than a rocker, so a bit of getting used to. Most versatile smart switch.
I was given a kasa smart plug as a gift. Works like a charm. It's a winner!
Hs220 comes with two 14g overlapped copper wires. Easy and fast setup with dual frequency router of 2.
Cons

I took one star out because if you pair up with the mobile app you have to choose a range of its max and minimum dimness which is not good
Competitiveness
Much cheaper than lutron caseta and you dont need a hub
Nice overall design not too dissimilar from other tplink switches
I had an expensive lutron dimmer controlling 9 led lights and the thing buzzed like crazy and the lights would flicker if you d... Read More
