First off, let me say I was excited to try this smart plug. The idea of controlling two outlets at once with voice commands via Alexa or Google Assistant sounded like a game-changer for my cluttered bedside setup.
The good? It's slim and doesn’t block the other outlet, which is a huge plus. I could finally plug in both my lamp and phone charger without sacrificing space. The scheduling feature is neat too—I set my lamp to turn on at sunset automatically.
But here’s the frustrating part: setup was a nightmare. The app (Tork) isn’t even on the PlayStore, and their website is a maze. I had to dig through forums to find a workaround. Even then, connecting to Wi-Fi was finicky—it only works on 2.4GHz, which isn’t clearly stated upfront.
Once it worked, though? Smooth sailing… until it randomly died weeks later. Now my lamps flicker like a haunted house prop. For the price, I expected better reliability.
Final verdict: Great in theory, but poor execution. If you’re tech-savvy and patient, maybe give it a shot. Otherwise, steer clear.
