Pros & Cons
Pros
The cord is thick and durable. My only gripe is that the instruction booklet is crazy small. Just ordered my third one for use on my refrigerator.
Paired easily and evidently is also a powerful repeater. This is critically important to homeseer users. Easiest setup of any smart gadget so far.
Using this to control a waterfall pump via homeassistant. Perfect for controlling large appliances like window ac units, sump pumps, and humidifiers. I currently use this in my home assistant automation of a fan in my study when the room gets warm.
An unexpected feature is that this unit reports back volts, amps, watts and kilowatt hours. It is the only device that will give me a readout on the computer of the load current.
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.
Highlights
Quality
Overall im very happy with the zooz zen14
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
4 out of 5 stars because the range doesnt seem that great and the price is higher than dimmers or other switches
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
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
