Excellent service

Excellent service. Answered my query next day. Ordered my item with no issues and it was here in a matter of days. My dad is delighted with his extra remote! Thank you.

Falsely adverted integrations

Falsely adverted in their site and packaging that their products worked with Nest, but they don’t! I know it’s because Google changed the way it worked, but they need to remove this claim.

Dear Richard,
Thank you for your review. As you rightly mention Google has removed its 'works with Nest' platform, and all reference to Nest should have been removed from our website. Unfortunately I see that Nest is still mentioned, and I have asked our marketing team to address this and get it removed.
Regarding the packaging and supplied instructions, there is nothing we can do about product which is in channel just now, but we are updating instructions and will be publishing them online.

Best regards
Energenie

Great concept, unreliable product.

Idea behind the product is great, but the product itself (radio controlled 4 socket multiplug), a bit less. I needed new one because old one's 3 out of 4 plugs stopped responding to the remote. I've been using it for over a year - not much, but ok, maybe less sturdy piece. I liked the product general concept, so I got 2 new ones, 1 for replacement, other in case I need it somewhere else. Now I'm using the second new one as a replacement for the first new one... The first of new ones lost responsiveness on one of the sockets, after just few weeks of use.

Energenie New WiFi Plug - marked improvement

Energenie - WiFi plug.
Before I begin my review, my top tip is to plan what you want to achieve out of your connected home and why. It's a big commitment and not cheap to buy an automated set-up and you dont want the company to vanish. I built my system up over 24 month and that's why I chose Energenie. They have an array of products that meet be those who are technically engaged and those who just want it to 'do what it says on the box'.
Energenie are always looking to improve and move forward. Their customer service is responsive, so great if you are struggling or have a suggestion. This latest Wifi plug is a leap ahead of others bulky offerings, which means a double socket is still a "double socket". What do I mean? You'll understand if you choose a different brand !!! Energenie wifi plugs are small and do a great job. Trust me.

The timer works well but the selection…

The timer works well but the selection of the time duration is unmarked and not described in the instructions. To select half an hour the indicator is placed in the top position, to select one hour move the indicator one click down, for three hours two clicks down and for eight hours four clicks down.

Hi, thanks for your review. The ENER001-V should have the time settings marked on the side next to the sliding switch. If this is not the case please contact us directly by visiting https://energenie4u.co.uk/about_us/contact_us and provide a photograph.

Many thanks,

Constant glitches

Constant glitches! on my 5th Gateway (they may send for free but I am bored of trying with them). I made an effort to contact the technical director through Linked in as I thought I would give him a chance to defend his shoddy products before I went public but clearly doesn't care as no response!

Great idea, just temperamental! (PC Automatic Standby Shutdown)

This is my third gang. I've found they work great for a period, then they don't switch off automatically. You hear the clunk sound but the gang stays on. I've later found that if you bang / thump the unit it seems to work again.
The concept is brilliant, it just needs a tweak guys! All three gangs have experienced the same issue which were purchased approx a year apart.
No response from tech support.
I don't think I can justify buying another.

Order Dispatched a week late

Placed an order on the 1st July one week later no sign of order despite order confirmation advising product would be shipped next day (1-5 day deliver time)

Chased Order and was advised it hadn't shipped until 8th July

Disappointing delivery/service, product itself is brilliant

Good product.

These are the best products for turning appliances on/off. It's a shame they changed the battery on the handset,when the battery runs out I have always had to replace the handset as its impossible to replace the battery.
