IKEA FYRTUR Blackout Roller Blind smart cover

Quick verdict

The FYRTUR is the undisputed budget king of smart blinds. Nothing else comes close on price for a blackout roller blind with Zigbee local control. Pair it directly with a Zigbee coordinator in Home Assistant and skip the IKEA hub entirely. The only real limitations are fixed size options and the need to recharge the battery every few months.

Standout: By far the most affordable smart blackout roller blind available, with full Zigbee local control.
