Amazon Smart Plug drops to $13 for Cyber Monday — best deal for Alexa homes
Amazon’s Smart Plug is on sale for $13 this Cyber Monday — about half its usual price of $25. If your home runs on Alexa devices, this plug is one of the easiest ways to add voice control to lamps, fans or other small appliances. Setup is simple through the Alexa app and it behaves as a native Echo accessory.
That simplicity is also its main limitation: the Amazon Smart Plug works only with Alexa. If you use Siri, Google Assistant or Matter‑first devices, consider alternatives like the Kasa Smart Plug (4‑pack) which is currently on sale for about $24 and supports multiple assistants.
Why buy the Amazon Smart Plug at $13?
- Plug-and-play: Quick pairing in the Alexa app — ideal for gifting or quick home automation projects.
- Affordable: At $13 it’s one of the cheapest reliable smart plugs you can buy from a major brand.
- Works with routines: Group plugs with Echo devices, add them to schedules or include them in Alexa routines for hands‑free control.
Practical notes before you buy
- Alexa only: The plug does not natively support Google Assistant, Siri or Matter — buy it only if you use Alexa.
- No energy monitoring: It toggles power on/off but won’t track usage — choose a different model if you need consumption data.
- Multiple plugs: If you need several smart outlets, a multi‑pack (or a third‑party plug with Matter support) may offer better long‑term flexibility.
- Price tracking: Cyber Monday deals can move fast — check the final price and seller before checking out.
