A satisfied Amazon customer notes that the hub was “exactly what we needed and wanted as smart home central console, consolidating everything together in a great way” in a five-star review.
Post Wanted’s Emma Sutton-Williams has tested quite a few vacuums, and she has this to say about the Roborock Saros 10R, a hybrid robot vac and mop that she tested in 2025: “I can confidently say it’s a standout robot vacuum-mop hybrid that delivers premium performance with little effort required on your end. Its smart automation, seamless app integration, and quiet operation make it one of the best choices on the market right now.”
In addition to the video doorbell and two outdoor cameras, this bundle includes the Sync Module XR system hub that extends the range of your cameras, so you can place them up to 400 feet away from your house for expanded coverage. This Amazon’s Choice system gets rave reviews for its motion detection, night vision, and clear audio and video.
Just in time for holiday decorating season, pick up a pack of two smart plugs so you can control indoor lights and more with an app — or just your voice. I personally use these for holiday decorations in my home, and it’s incredibly easy to set up on/off schedules that actually work using the Alexa app. While decor is one timely use case, you can also use a smart plug to control lamps, fans, and more.
Isn’t this just the cutest little smart speaker?! The Echo Pop, available in four colors, is the perfect Alexa-enabled smart speaker for bedrooms and smaller spaces — and it’s less than $25 right now. I’m looking at my very own Echo Pop as I type these words, and I love to use it as a secondary speaker for my laptop in my office. I’m always impressed with the volume, sound quality, and smart features.
This seven-piece smart home security system includes one base station, one keypad (which you can use to arm and disarm your home, in addition to the app), one motion sensor, three entry sensors, and one outdoor camera. Post Wanted’s Senior Editorial Director Barret Wertz has been using Simplisafe for over five years and has nothing but great things to say about the brand.
In his review, he wrote, “you’re not tied into long contracts, it works straight out of the box, and it has only gotten better with time, without having to buy a bunch of new stuff to make it work. If you want a security system that doesn’t feel like a second job, SimpliSafe is worth the setup.”
Hands down, the best thing I’ve bought for my smart home — as an avid TV and movie watcher — is Nanoleaf’s 4D Screen Mirror and Lightstrip kit. Easy to install and even easier to use, this light strip, mounts behind your television to backlight your TV screen. The camera, which mounts above the screen, aids in changing the colors of the lights instantly to reflect the colors on screen. It’s non-obtrusive, and you’ll quickly forget its even there as the bright LEDs enhance your viewing experience.
In addition to Nanoleaf’s own app, you can control these lights with the Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa and SmartThings systems.
You’re going to need a strong WiFi connection to run your smart home. This eero three-piece set supports wifi speeds up to a gigabit, without the premium price tag. You can connect over 75 devices at a wide range with the three-pack, which allows you to spread them around your space, virtually eliminating dead zones.
Over 10,000 Amazon shoppers purchased this super affordable, high quality security camera from Blink in the past month. It’s compact with a powerful spotlight, good for indoor and outdoor use, and works seamlessly with Amazon’s Alexa ecosystem.
The Bolt smart deadlock is fully integrated into your Smart Home, whether you use Alexa, Apple Home, Google Home, or SmartThings. This model also uses Apple Home Key, which allows you to lock or unlock your door by simply tapping your phone or Apple Watch on the keypad.
Start your morning off smart with this Alexa-enabled smart hybrid speaker/alarm clock. Check time, weather, and more at a glance, listen to your favorite tunes, and set a wake-up schedule so you’ll never sleep through your alarm again. With over 34,000 reviews and a 4.6 star average, it’s clear Amazon shoppers love this speaker; one even wrote, “I don’t think any house should go without one.”
Currently at its lowest price ever, this Post Wanted-approved Spotlight Cam from Ring is battery-powered and allows you to keep an eye on the outside of your house in wide-angle, 1080p HD video with Color Night Vision. I have one mounted near my front door and my backyard sliding door, and the peace of mind it provides, knowing that I’ll always know if something is going on in front of my house, is priceless.
Track and measure particulate matter (PM 2.5), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon monoxide (CO), humidity, and temperature, plus get notifications from the Alexa app when air quality dips. The LED light on the device will change color based on the air quality measurement at any given moment. Over 1,000 of these were purchased by Amazon shoppers in the past month; reviews call it “well designed” and “easy to set up.”
The Amazon Echo Show 5 is the MVP of my kitchen — seriously. I use it for everything, from recipes and setting timers to playing my favorite music while I’m cooking. It also integrates into others parts of your smart home, with support for lights, Ring cameras, and more.
