Chamberlain’s beloved MyQ smart garage door opener has been one of our readers’ favorite smart home gadgets for years. Now, there’s a hot new version that retails for just $40, which is definitely a steal. A smart garage door controller is a gadget that’s often overlooked by people as they accumulate different smart home devices, but that’s a mistake. Once you start using one, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it. While you’re standing around punching your PIN into a keypad that never seems to work on the first or even second try, I can open my garage door in an instant with a quick tap on my smartphone or even my Apple Watch!

Want to get in on the action? Right now you can score a MyQ for just $29.98 from Amazon — plus there’s also a special promo available that pays you $40 back!

Anyone who follows BGR Deals has undoubtedly been saving a ton of cash lately. That means you have some extra money to pick up something fun for yourself! There’s one deal in particular that you should check out at Amazon because it’s one of the best-selling smart home gadgets we’ve ever covered — and if you take advantage of a special deal that Amazon is running, you’ll basically end up getting paid $10 to get one!

The MyQ smart garage door opener cost $100 when it was first released… and it was worth every cent. This awesome device installs in under 20 minutes and lets you open and close your garage door using your smartphone or even just your voice, thanks to Alexa support. Whether you never want to wonder again if you remembered to close your garage door as you rushed to work or you’re just sick and tired of dealing with that annoying keypad that never seems to work on the first try, the MyQ is an awesome purchase.

It also works with Amazon’s Key service for in-garage deliveries, and you can get a $40 Amazon credit if you enter the promo code KEY40 when placing your first Amazon Key order.

Chamberlain’s MyQ smart garage door opener is back in stock right now and it’s down to the same $29.98 price that we saw last year during Black Friday and Cyber Week. But if you also take advantage of that Amazon Key promotion, you’ll pretty much end up getting a free MyQ from Amazon and you’ll net $10!
