Everyone knows that there are a gazillion different smart home gadgets out there, but how many of them are truly essential? It goes without saying that the answer will vary depending on who you ask, but the list of essentials is often quite 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 $6.75 each. Most people will also mention a good smart lock like the eufy Smart Lock Touch, and more advanced users might add something like the MyQ smart garage door opener to their lists. We would too — it's awesome!
In addition to all those great gadgets, we're going to introduce you to a new smart gadget that will instantly make it to your list of must-have smart home essentials. It's called the SwitchBot Curtain smart curtain controller, and it's a game-changer.
Smart blinds and smart curtains are awesome, but getting a good setup is typically very expensive. That's where the SwitchBot Curtain smart curtain controller. This brilliant Amazon find works with just about any setup you might have as long as your curtains don't use grommets.
It takes just 30 seconds to install a SwitchBot Curtain on any curtain rod. Seriously... you're going to spend more time finding your step stool and carrying it over to your window than you'll spend attaching this simple little smart device. Once it's attached, 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 $99, and it's a steal at that price. Grab one today, however, and you'll save about $5 thanks to an on-site Amazon coupon you can clip.
Of note, there's one more gadget you're going to need if you really want the best experience that's available. It's called the SwitchBot Hub Mini, and it only costs $39 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 even open and close your curtains with an Alexa voice command. The possibilities are endless!
