About Leviton D215P-2RW Decora Smart Wi-Fi Mini Plug-In Switch
Overall Feedback:
81% positive
76% liked the smooth switch mechanism
I compared the switch mechanism quality of other brands with this one and found it to be more robust.
75% appreciated the smart features, yet 25% struggled
The on/off button controls the top outlet only, which has smart features.
I had difficulty finding the smart plug on setup and thought it was a dimmer switch. The picture on the app clearly described a dimmer switch, not a smart plug.
70% appreciated the safety features
When I come home in the dark, the switch is always on and it dims to 20% around midnight, not disturbing the bedrooms down the hall.
The smart plug mini with dimmer options helped me avoid the issue of blinding my kid in the morning and dealing with 20 minutes of screams when walking her out of her room.
83% found it easy to install
I loved how easy it was to install the outlet with compression style crimps on the sides of the receptacle where there is no need to 'hook/loop' the conductor cables.
The installation was easy and concise with no issues.
I was able to install it in under five minutes and the installation process was super easy.
76% were satisfied with durability
The plugs are working flawlessly in HomeKit even after a month of use.
75% were impressed with the compatibility, although 25% encountered issues
The product is compatible with Apple homeKit, even though Amazon does not allow it.
The Leviton plug is not compatible with one-bar wi-fi.
I faced difficulties in pairing the switch with Apple Home. I had to download firmware updates and follow specific steps to pair it with Apple Home. Siri/ Homekit integration is less easy, but I provided detailed information on how to pair it with Apple Home.
70% liked the aesthetic design, but 30% felt it didn’t match with decor
I had to paint the switch to match the aesthetic of my existing switches and wall plates.
If I had ruined the aesthetic of the electrical outlet switch by cutting the fabric wrapped cord or replacing the bulb socket to automate it, my wife would have been upset.
