Control any curtains with Alexa thanks to this $99 Amazon find

There are thousands of great smart home devices out there these days. Tens of thousands, even. But how many of them are actually essential? The answer will obviously vary depending on who you ask, but the list of essentials is typically pretty short.

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 $6.25 each. That’s a new all-time low price. It’s also even cheaper than Amazon’s deal from Prime Day last 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 somehow down to under $23 right now!

Anyone who has seen them knows that smart curtains and smart blinds are awesome. Unfortunately, they can also be excruciatingly expensive. That’s why the SwitchBot Curtain smart curtain controller is so awesome.

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 $99, and it’s a steal at that price. If you want the full experience though, you’ll need one more gadget that happens to be on sale right now with a great discount.

It’s called the SwitchBot Hub Mini and it’s down to $39 right now at Amazon. This little device is the missing link between your new smart curtains and a true smart home experience. The Hub Mini acts as a bridge so that you can use things like IFTTT, Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit to control your blinds. Sync your open and close functions to sunrise and sunset each day. Or, you can even open and close your curtains with an Alexa voice command. The possibilities are endless and you’re going to love it!
