Pros & Cons
Pros
Hurry hurry. Why not. Paired easily and evidently is also a powerful repeater. Easiest setup of any smart gadget so far.
The zen15 is composed of an aeotec z-stick gen5 usb interface, one of these zooz z-wave plus power switches and a large number of now apparently obsolete of insteon devices. Adding it to my z-wave network (via homeassistant) was a total breeze.
The zooz plug is great. Did get a defective one but was taken care of. But more importantly, my wife is thrilled.
Cons
Poor or incorrect documentation and horrible performance. I had a aeon labs strip which failed last week (one of the outlets is not responsive to zwave command and became always on) it works fine for all 5 outlets for the first day. Once there is an o... Read More
I reset / repair and none will do anything. It seems more likely the device firmware has bugs in the reset and firmware restart coding sequences. Manually turning it on does nothing. But a router is not.

So just be aware of this in my opinion limitation if you decide to purchase this product
So i looked through the app and found that zooz makes a similar product
Price
I bought this to solve that as it was the immediate issue and best value for a heavy duty plug that could take higher amperage loads
Customer service was me to send it back to disgnose at my cost
The price is a bit higher but youre getting quality
Maybe theyll be able to offer better price value then and still be profitable
Shipping
Never experienced same day shipping on a product before
Packaging/appearance
Between this the ge outlet and the aeotec outlet the zooz outlet is the most convenient
Nowhere to be found in the smartthings app
The only real ding for me and this is true of pretty much everything in the zwave ecosystem is that its so expensive for what it is
Competitiveness
I have 2 of these that im using with openhab running on a rapberry pi 4 and a zwave usb stick
If you already have a zwave hub theres very little downside to this zooz smart plug
My second issue is i had decided to use a zwave yale assure 2 lock
I am still disappointed with its limited zwave range in comparison to my much older zwave plugs
