For powering my ESP32/ESP8266 stuff, I use "trustworthy" USB power supplies (e.g., stuff from a brick-and-mortar store, or leftover iPhone adapters, not random Aliexpress adapters) and use short USB cables to connect them. Costco usually has some kind of appropriate adapter for a reasonable price.
For controlling 110V loads, I've found that the Ikea TRÅDFRI outlets work well. If you stay within the TRÅDFRI ecosystem, you need a "steering device" such as a switch or remote to pair them to the gateway, but if you're willing to step outside that ecosystem Zigbee adapters like the ConBee II can talk to the outlets directly (I'm in the process of migrating my Ikea gear to this). The Home Assistant TRÅDFRI component works well.
