Amazon’s magic Alexa wand is better than anything in Harry Potter, and it’s free

Maren Estrada

Did Harry Potter ever make laundry detergent or dog food magically appear with his wand? No. Was he able to use it to control Spotify or turn his smart lights on and off? Definitely not. The next-generation Amazon Dash Wand can do all that and more. It packs Alexa into a tiny little device that fits in the palm of your hand or in your pocket. Pull it out and press the button to speak to Alexa, or just point it at a barcode on a product in your home and the Wand will reorder it for you. Best of all, the Dash Wand is free for Prime members — you’ll pay $20 when you order it, but you’ll get a $20 credit when you register it.

Here are the highlights from the product page:

  • Groceries have never been easier. All new Amazon Dash Wand with Alexa helps you find recipes, convert cups to ounces, buy and reorder essentials, find nearby restaurants and more.

  • Purchase Dash Wand for $20 and get $20 off your next purchase after you register the device. *

  • Say it or scan a barcode. It’s added to your shopping cart. Just say “paper towels.”

  • Water-resistant, durable design, and magnetic so you can stick it on your fridge. You’ll need an iPhone or Android phone to register the device.
