Going from zero to a fully outfitted smart home is a huge undertaking -- and it can get expensive fast. While we don't recommend grabbing every possible smart home device in one go, Black Friday makes smartening up areas of your home a lot easier on your wallet. Every year, the number of smart devices grows so we waded through the best deals on many of the products we've tried and recommend. Some of our favorite robot vacuums are seeing steep discounts, as is our favorite air fryer and an Echo smart display we found particularly useful. Covering just about every potential room in the home, here are the best robot vacuum and smart home Black Friday deals we could find.

Like furniture and other home essentials, IoT devices are often expensive and it can be hard to figure out which are right for your space. Thankfully, sales like this October Prime Day can help out with the first problem. A number of smart home devices, including robot vacuums, thermostats, kitchen tech and more, have been discounted for this members-only event. You can pick up some high-end gadgets for hundreds of dollars off, which means you may be able to snag an even better robo-vac than you thought you would thanks to these deals. And if you're looking to pick something up for a loved one, or someone who just moved into a new home as a housewarming gift, now's a great time to do that without breaking the bank.

Upgrading your home with the latest tech can be expensive, but Amazon Prime Day is an opportunity to do so for a lot less. Be it robot vacuums or smart bulbs, there are a whole lot of IoT and kitchen devices on sale today. Even some of our favorites from iRobot, Shark and Google have been discounted. Not all of the sales are actually worth your money, so we've done the hard work of narrowing that list down to the best deals available. One of our favorite smart thermostats is this one from Ecobee, so we're glad that it's on sale today for $178 ($71 off its retail price of $249).

Black Friday offers a number of good opportunities to up your smart-home game. Over the past couple of years, we've seen more good deals each year on things like smart light bulbs, robot vacuums and more during the holiday season. And that's in addition to sales on the usual suspects when it comes to "smart" home tech -- things like the Instant Pot and other small appliances. Instead of sifting through the hundreds of robot vacuum and smart home deals out there, we've gathered what we think are the best devices at the best prices below. If you want a truly multi-purpose small appliance, the Instant Pot Duo Crisp fits the bill.
