There are thousands of great smart home devices with Alexa out there these days. Tens of thousands, even. But how many of them will actually wow you? The answer will obviously vary depending on who you ask, but the list is typically pretty short.
Today, however, we’re going to introduce you to some of the coolest Alexa smart home devices you’ve ever seen. It’s called the SwitchBot Curtain smart curtain controller, and you’re going to love it.
There are plenty of great smart home deals today at Amazon. Wi-Fi smart plugs are often at the top of the list, like the best-selling TP-Link Kasa smart plugs you can get right now at Amazon for just $6.75 each. That’s a new all-time low price. It’s also even cheaper than Amazon’s deal from Prime Day earlier this year, so it won’t last much longer.
Most people will also mention a good smart lock as an essential smart home device, like the eufy Smart Lock Touch that’s available with a deep discount today. And savvy shoppers might add something like the MyQ smart garage door opener to their lists.
We would definitely add a smart garage door opener to the list too because they’re awesome. In addition, the best-selling MyQ is only $29.98 these days, and you can score a $30 Amazon credit!
In addition to all those great gadgets, we’re also going to introduce you to a new smart device. It will instantly make it to your list of smart home essentials. It’s called the SwitchBot Curtain smart curtain controller, and it’s a game-changer.
Coolest new Alexa smart home devices
This brilliant Amazon find works with just about any setup you might have. The only curtains that won’t work are the kind that has grommets. It takes about 30 seconds to install a SwitchBot Curtain on any curtain rod. That’s not an exaggeration. You’ll probably spend more time finding your step stool than you’re going to spend setting up your SwitchBot Curtain.
After that, all you need to do is install the app and you’ll be able to open and close your curtains right from your smartphone or using timers!
The SwitchBot Curtain retails for just $109, which is a phenomenal value. It’s on sale right now though, and it’s a steal at the discounted price.
If you want the full experience, however, you’ll need one more gadget that happens to be on sale right now with a great discount.
