This device performs flawlessly with good quality, the WLAN range is sufficient for a medium-sized flat. The installation is reasonably quick, the operation is partly available in German, details only in English (in paper form, more detailed on CD). Unfortunately, the rather small unit has no on/off button. However, I plugged it into a switched socket. As long as the unit is disconnected from the power supply from time to time, it starts up very quickly when reconnected. What's great is that the device works great regardless of another brand (router, basic powerline LAN device). It even works when another WLAN powerline device (D-Link in my case) is plugged in somewhere in the flat. The purchase was worth it for me.

Pairing with existing TP-PA4020P kit works without problems.
Unpacked, connected, pairing button pressed, Powerline extended. Done.

I already have some ehternet cable-only powerlines at home, now with this one I have added Wi-Fi in the basement room. The best feature is that you can duplicate your Wi-Fi network, thus not having to reconnect all the devices to a new network.

I wonder if only its good connection with other devices (e.g. TL-PA7017 KIT) and not the wi-fi extender function has been tested

I can only recommend it. I have installed three of them at home: in the cellar, on the terrace and in the hallway.

For about 1 1/2 years I have been using a TP-Link Gigabit Kit TL-PA7017 KIT system for the connection from the 1st to the 2nd floor, which works great. Unfortunately, I have no reception with my mobile phone in the basement, neither via the mobile network nor WLAN. Now I have supplemented the system with a TP-Link TL-WPA4220, which is installed in the basement. This means that I can now also surf there (less important) and can be reached - via WLAN - on my mobile phone. It works perfectly and was actually delivered within 24 hours - great!
Fortunately, I understand enough English, because the instructions supplied contain 'only' 15 (!) different Eastern European languages besides English. German was probably forgotten. The instructions that can be downloaded from the Digitec webshop are also only in English. I see potential for improvement there.

as it arrived I configured it immediately just by clicking two buttons.
fast in network and wi fi.
excellent product
Pro
Now and then I lose the connection, but plugging and unplugging solves the problem. This may be because I am on the second floor and the transmitter is on the ground floor.

Works perfectly.
Very good price/performance ratio
Use it with AV1200 Gigabit Powerline Adapter KIT
TL-PA8030P KIT

To really be able to judge the performance, I would have to have a means of comparison.
Subjectively, the performance is sufficient.
The TP-Link Tl-WPA4220 can be conveniently connected to the network;
at most, where the connection to the Internet is desired.
To really be able to judge the range, I would have to have a means of comparison.
Subjectively, the range is sufficient.
The TP-Link Tl-WPA4220 works absolutely reliably for my needs.

Requires an existing CPL from TP-Link to work or network cable.

I had to turn this thing off after a short time because of sleep problems.
I wonder why this technology is not banned.
From a building biology point of view, it's a disaster. See for example the following article:

I have now wired everything (no WLAN either). Now I sleep wonderfully again.
