Amazon Smart Plug is currently 40% off right now

The latest breaking updates, delivered straight to your email inbox.

One of the most popular smart home devices is seeing a discount close to what was seen during Black Friday of last year.

Smart home devices have increased in popularity over the years, thanks in large part to the amount of time and energy people save when needed to complete mundane tasks around their home.

Our partners at BestProducts say smart home devices undoubtedly make your daily routine more convenient, from adjusting the temperature in your space or checking if you locked the door.

So when we saw that the ever popular Amazon Smart Plug was seeing a 40% discount as of this writing, we knew we had to share this deal with you.

The Amazon Smart Plug allows you to control your lights, fans, coffee makers, and more with your voice or within the Alexa app.

Schedule lights, fans, appliances like your coffee maker or holiday lights display to turn on and off automatically, or control them remotely when you aren't home.

It can also help automatically turn on and off lights using "Away Lighting," which allows you to make it look like you’re home when you’re away.

Simply plug in the Amazon Smart Plug into a wall outlet, open the Alexa app and make your home smarter within minutes.

You don't need a smart home hub to have the smart plug work. All you need is Wi-Fi and the Alexa app, as the smart plug works exclusively with Alexa.

Hearst Television's Chief National Consumer Correspondent Jeff Rossen showed how the Amazon Smart Plug works. You can watch how it works in the video player above.

The Amazon Smart Plug is currently 40% off its original price.

While it isn't the near 50% off deal we saw during Black Friday weekend in 2022, this is the first time the Amazon Smart Plug has its price slashed in 2023.

To put how good this deal is in perspective, buying three Amazon Smart Plugs right now will be less than what you would spend if you bought two of them at their original price.

Over 500,000 customers have rated the Amazon Smart Plug, and it boasts a 4.7 star rating out of five stars, showing not just how popular, but how useful it has been for those who have purchased the smart home device.

The Amazon Smart Plug isn't the only smart home device seeing an incredible deal at the moment. Other Amazon smart home devices are also seeing deals for a limited time.
