    Compared to Kasa HS110.
    I have owned many of these devices and can help you in selecting components for your own smart home. I'm going to make this a comparison review of both the Wemo and TP-Link Kasa devices, as that may help in your purchase decision.I began with the Wemo Insight smart plug, installing it on all my appliances, computers, and any other device for which I wanted to keep track of energy usage. The interface was very good and allowed me to enter my local utility rate (13.48¢/kWh) and see actual costs. It correctly determined when the device was in active or standby state (such as when a refrigerator's compressor is active, or when a computer is in standby mode) and displayed a yellow (standby) or green (active) dot.I soon discovered a design disadvantage. If power is ever lost, the device must be manually turned back on afterward. So even a momentary outage or an accidental bump of the device leaves your fridge, heater, or computer off for good. Not smart.I solved this (somewhat) with IFTTT. I set up applets for each plug to monitor its state and turn it back on in case it were ever detected off. This worked during testing and usually turned the plug back on within a minute or so of being switched off. However, over time this functionality deteriorated. Roughly a year later I concluded that this was no longer a viable solution. On testing, I found that devices no longer snapped back on as quickly as before. It could take 20 minutes, or very often never happened at all. I don't know whether this was related to changes in IFTTT or any firmware updates since the time of installation.In the meanwhile, I had reached a patience limit in regard to Wemo failures. I had bought dozens of Wemo plugs and switches, replacing every light switch and dimmer in my house, and had accumulated an ever-growing box of dead units. This caused mild grumbling when I had to remove a plug, configure a new one, then update all my Alexa groups and routines. But repeatedly having to shut off the electricity and rewire light switches in the wall took its toll. In the same 18 months of usage, I had no failures at all from Kasa or LIFX devices.Considering Kasa's reliability and its extensive product line (including many, many more devices than Wemo) I finally decided to remove all Wemos and replace with Kasa. The only device that I even considered keeping was the Wemo Insight. Its the only Wemo product for which I had no failures whatsoever, the design is better, and the energy consumption reporting is superior. However, I had to eventually choose the Kasa device for the sole reason that it always returns to the state it was in before power loss. For me that trumps every other consideration.Wemo Insight:+ leaves the other outlet free for use+ calculates energy usage in dollars and cents+ detects active/standby state+ IFTTT can determine current on/off state- always returns to OFF state after power loss- contributes to a Wemo ecosystem which is largely unreliable- more expensiveKasa HS110:+ always returns to device state prior to power loss+ user can control comprehensive line of devices through a single Kasa app+ less expensive- blocks the second outlet in a receptacle (despite product photos)- won't report state to IFTTT- only reports energy consumption in kWh, not actual cost
