It pains me each time I come across someone who only uses their Amazon Echo device to play music and set timers. The best Alexa speakers and smart displays are a gateway to opening up a world of functionality. For example, I use mine to automate and control the best smart home devices from smart lights to smart plugs.

Right now, Alexa Smart Home products are on sale from $19 at Amazon. These deals can help you flesh out the rest of your smart home to make it more comfortable and convenient. My top pick is the $55 Amazon Smart Air Quality Monitor which sees a sizable $15 discount to one of its lowest prices ever. 

I use mine with the Amazon Smart Plug (on sale for $19) in my daily Alexa cleaning routine. It can automatically kick on my older Alen air purifier whenever the air quality drops too low. While Amazon's smart plug is pricier than more universal options, it's easy to pair with Alexa and upgrades your existing appliances for smart app and voice control.

This is the most affordable Alexa speaker Amazon sells and it’s now been slashed to an even lower price. In our Echo Pop review, we were impressed by the speaker's sound for its small size.
