Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

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

Quality


This product and brand is on par with the quality of other larger named brands like ge


It pairs easily with the aeotec hub samsung sold me by telling me that the hub id had dozens of devices working off of for 5 ye...  Read More


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
