Can I use the smart plug to dim and brighten my lights?

No. The smart plug lets you turn off and on your light via the app or your voice, but it does not support dimming or brightening. 

Can I use other appliances (e.g., a coffee machine) with my smart plug?

We designed the smart plug to work with lights that are not necessarily Philips Hue. It will show up as a light in the Philips Hue app and act as a light in timers, automations, Rooms, and Zones. If you plug in another appliance besides a light to the smart plug, your appliance could malfunction.
