Amazon is well-known for many things, but today’s deals combine a couple of our favorites: smart home tech and serious savings.

Prime Big Deal Days has officially arrived and you can take up to 55% off Amazon Echo devices during the retailer’s big event, which runs through Oct. 9. Amazon devices are one of Mashable’s top recommendations for items to buy during the sale (and check out what not to buy for good measure).

Here are some of our favorite choices if you’re shopping Echo devices:

Best Echo deal overall

Why we like it

Amazon conveniently dropped the brand new Echo Spot just in time for the July Prime Day event, and now during Prime Big Deal Days, it’s down to its lowest price ever. This smart alarm clock is the perfect size for your nightstand, not taking up too much space. But its bright displays clearly show the time, even when you’re groggy in the early mornings. In addition to just being a great alarm clock, it also has all the perks of other Echo devices with the ability to play music, set routines, and respond to voice commands.

Shop the Amazon Echo Spot for $44.99, and save $35 for 44% off.

Best Echo speaker deal

Why we like it

The Echo Dot strikes the right balance of speakers. It has big sound like Amazon’s flagship Echo, however, it comes in a much smaller package so it doesn’t end up being the focal point of a room — we know counter space is precious. It’s compatible with other smart home devices, so you can set daily routines and basically never have to touch a light switch again.

During October Prime Day, the Echo Dot, is 54% off and down to $22.99.

Best Echo Show deal

Why we like it

If you’re interested in a smart display, the Amazon Echo Show 8 is a great option that offers tons of features. Video chat with your parents, cue up some jazzy music while cleaning, or pull up a dinner recipe on the Echo Show 8. You can also use it as a way to check your calendar, display the weather, or control other Alexa-enabled devices.

In Mashable’s review of the best Echo devices, the Echo Show 8 earns the top spot for those looking for a budget-friendly smart display. However, thanks to today’s sale price of just $84.99, the Echo Show 8 is 43% off its typical price of $149.99.

Best deal for kids

Why we like it

For the kiddo or grandkid in your life, the Echo Dot Kids is a great device that can help them with independence. Coming in two adorable designs that depict either an owl or a dragon, the Echo Dot Kids allows kids to stream music, ask Alexa questions, set an alarm clock, or tune into a bedtime story. The device also comes with a year of free access to Amazon Kids+ which includes kid-friendly Audible audiobooks, games, morning routines, and more.

Amazon also includes a two-year warranty on the Echo Dot Kids, which means if the device breaks, Amazon will replace it for free within the first two years of ownership.

During Prime Day, the Echo Dot Kids is a true bargain at just $27.99 for 53% off — some of the best savings you can find ahead of Prime Big Deal Days.

Best home organization deal

Why we like it

Busy family schedules can be hard to keep track of. If you’re tired of re-writing the weekly schedule on the white board each Sunday, the Amazon Echo Hub could be ideal. The eight-inch smart home control panel allow you to synch up your family’s schedule, display the weather, play music, and more. The Echo Hub is also designed to link up with your other Alexa-enabled smart home systems like lights, security alarms, a smart thermostat, and video doorbells.

With Prime Big Deal Days savings, you can find the Echo Hub for $124.99. That’s $55 down from it’s listed $179.99.
