Smart technology has seen some major advancements in recent years, and that's provided quite a bit of convenience thanks to devices that are much, well, smarter than their predecessors. We can control many aspects of our lives and homes these days with new smart devices by way of an app, input or even just our voices. And while this offers a lot in the way of efficiency, it can frequently come with a significant price tag attached -- which is why it's crucial to find deals when you can.
If you're wanting to add some smart features to your home but can't afford a complete overhaul, don't worry. There are plenty of smart home devices on the market at a variety of prices, whether you're looking for a single smart plug or need to outfit an entire room.
Just because you're looking to upgrade doesn't mean you have to scour every website on your own for discounts. We can help find the best offers currently available to help you build the smart home of your dreams for less.

Best Smart Appliance Deals
You may not believe it, but there are so many smart appliances these days. You can use your voice to preheat the oven, adjust your home's temperature, control your garage door and more.
Sharp
It seems as though companies are adding Alexa and Google Assistant support to just about anything, including countertop microwaves. This model offers support for Amazon's Alexa to reheat your food, add cooking time and more, but it does not support Google Assistant. You'll still need to use your hands to load it with food, though maybe one day we will have a smart robot that can do that for us, as well.
Meross
This Meross smart garage remote allows you to open or close your garage from anywhere using the companion app on your phone or tablet. It's also compatible with Alexa, Siri and Google Assistant so you can control it using the sound of your voice through other smart devices. Or, you can set a schedule so that it closes at a preset time, or after being open for an extended period.
