If you run an Alexa-centric smart home, today’s best smart home deal on the popular Amazon Smart Thermometer is a win-win.

The free Alexa app guides you through installation, which takes no time at all, and also helps you find the most comfortable setting for your household.

Alexa smart thermostat app on phone

Using the Alexa app, you can set schedules, letting your new smart thermostat automatically adjust the temperature by the time of day or day of the week. You can also turn on special modes when you’re on vacation or want to prioritize energy savings.

If you have an Alexa smart home hub, like the Amazon Echo Show 15 or the Amazon Echo Dot, you’ll also gain voice control, which allows you to check and adjust the temperature by asking your smart home hub.

Thermostat Hunches are one of the best features of this smart thermostat. When you enable hunches in the Alexa app, your smart thermostat automatically turns down the heat when you go to bed or leave the house. When Alexa senses someone returns home, it moves the dial back to your normal temperature without any intervention from you.

The touchscreen panel on the Amazon Smart Thermostat displays the current temperature and allows you to make adjustments.

Our only complaint is that this model does not have a built-in speaker, so you’ll need an Amazon Alexa home hub for voice control.

  • Voice control with Amazon Alexa home hubs
  • 3 touch buttons on the thermostat
