Testing 3 Smart Home Gadgets From Meross – Do They Actually Work?

Published at : 18 Dec 2025

Today I’m testing three smart home gadgets from Meross to see if they actually work the way they promise. I’ve got a presence sensor, a water leak sensor, and a smart sprinkler timer, and I’ll be setting them up with both the Meross app and Home Assistant.

In this video, I’ll walk you through the setup, show how each sensor behaves, and share my honest thoughts after trying them out at home. If you’re curious about smart home automation, or just want to know if these sensors are worth adding to your setup, this video should give you a clear idea.

Stick around until the end, because I also test how well these devices integrate with Home Assistant and what kind of automations you can build with them.
