Reasonably well-designed, Energy monitoring is cool, Good smart home integration
Poorly designed app
The Belkin WeMo Insight is a neat little device. We like that it shows energy use, and the design isn't all that bad either. On top of that, the device connects with a pretty substantial range of smart home services, which is crucial. Unfortunately, thoug...
Abstract: Which smart switch is best? What do smart switches do, and are they worth the money? We test five of the contenders: the Belkin WeMo Insight Switch, TP-Link Wi-Fi Smart Plug, Elgato Eve Energy, Energenie Mi | Home Adapter Plus and the Efergy Ego. Also rea...
Abstract: This is the last of our Belkin WeMo product reviews for today, although for a while now because we have finally come to the end of what we were sent. It's been great getting to know these devices, although there are still two left, and because they are ve...
Abstract: With a couple of months of use behind me, my feelings about the Belkin WeMo switches are just as conflicted now as they were when I unpacked these. On paper, the idea of a switch that you can plug anything in to make it smart is fantastic. In reality, I s...

Easy to set up. Supports IfTTT. Compact size. Tracks power usage and costs.
No Web browser support. App is a bit erratic
The Belkin WeMo Insight smart power outlet not only uses your home Wi-Fi network to turn devices on and off remotely, it also has scheduling and IfTTT recipe capability, and it can tell you how much power you are using....
Design doesn't block the second AC outlet in a duplex, Switches loads up to 1800 W, Support for Android and iOS mobile platforms, Integrates with IFTT (If This Then That), Button on top of unit can turn on/off load without using a mobile device, Scheduled
Android Application poorly designed and barely functions, Events created on Android platform don't trigger the device, Events created one one device don't sync to other configured devices, No dimming capabilities, No Windows or MacOS desktop applications,
After a frustrating setup experience, I was ready to return the WeMo Insight to Staples. After uninstalling the apps from all platforms, rebooting my router and reinstalling the apps, the setup experience was better. Though my Nexus 7 didn't notify me of...
A smaller plastic housing and new power usage tracking on Belkin's WeMo Insight Switch bring greater visual appeal and usefulness to Belkin's already winning entry-level smart-home power plug line
Setup remains a hassle, it's still large enough to block adjacent outlets, and reliance on IFTTT for advanced programming functions means you'll need to bounce between two different apps to get the most out of the Switch
Despite a few usability quirks, Belkin's WeMo Insight Switch only improves on the simple, low-risk formula that made Belkin's original programmable WeMo Switch so appealing as a home automation starting point.
