About Plugged-In Home

Plugged-In Home helps regular people pick smart home gear that is actually worth the money, and set it up without a headache.

What we do

We compare smart plugs, lights, cameras, doorbells, speakers, locks, thermostats and robot vacuums on the things that matter day to day: how easy they are to set up, whether they work with the phone and voice assistant you already use, what they really cost once subscriptions are added, and what owners complain about after a few months.

What we don’t do

We don’t take payment to include a product, and we don’t let commissions decide the order of our picks. We don’t invent test results, and we don’t test products hands-on. Every guide says where our view comes from: maker specs, published reviews and owner feedback.

How we make money

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you buy through one, the store pays us a small commission at no extra cost to you. That is how we keep the site free. Read the full affiliate disclosure.
