Where to Buy:

The plugs let you add smart controls to devices like lamps, fans, chargers, coffee makers, and heaters. All you need is plug one into an outlet and connect it to your Wi-Fi network, and you can automate whatever’s attached using the Kasa app on your phone. You can also control stuff with your voice thanks to Matter support, which lets the plugs work with major smart home platforms like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. That means you can turn lights on or off when you’re out of town or, for example, schedule a fan so that it turns on a few minutes before you return home.

Another advantage is that the plug also includes energy monitoring, which tracks how much electricity your devices are using. That’s handy information that can help better understand your power consumption, and potentially save money on electricity bills. The slim design is also helpful: unlike bulkier smart plugs that can block neighboring outlets, these are small enough that you can plug two into a single wall outlet.
