Lightbulb Deals
The Amazon Echo Glow is a smart nightlight that can be synchronized with a separate Alexa device or app to follow routines. It cycles through 16 colors, and it's easy to get set up. It's the perfect nightlight for kids as it's also dimmable and can be controlled through a tap. Contributing editor John R. Delaney awarded it a "Good" rating. In our Amazon Echo Glow review, he said, "The Amazon Echo Glow is a small Wi-Fi-enabled night-light designed for kids. It offers 16 colors and touch control, but it doesn't have a microphone or speaker and depends on another device for voice control."
