Top 7 Former Kickstarter Products Now Available On Amazon

1. gTar
The gTar digital guitar seems just as revolutionary now as it did in 2012 when it raised $353K and was the runner-up at TechCrunch Disrupt NYC. Note that the model sold on Amazon only fits an iPhone 4/4s, but the company website sells a dock for the iPhone 5 (as well as a slightly more expensive iPhone 5 compatible model).

2. Misfit Shine
After raising $846K on Indiegogo, the Misfit Shine activity tracker has carried its success over to Amazon, where it has earned an average 4 star rating from over 2000 customer reviews. Credit its ease of use and low-profile, elegant design for its massive sales.

3. Makey Makey
Makey Makey is one of those projects where you just have to watch the video. An average 4.5 star Amazon rating should remove any doubts that it works as advertised!

4. Smartthings
Until recently the #1 best seller in the Amazon’s “Home Automation Module” category (no surprise after a $1.2 million Kickstarter campaign), SmartThings is leaving no doubt that they’re a top choice for creating a smarter home.

5. Bia Watch
Though marketed as “the first GPS watch for women by women”, the Bia Watch is so feature-packed and well-designed that several of its rave reviews are written by male customers! If you’re looking for a cheaper sportswatch + heart rate monitor, the MIO Alpha is another well-reviewed former Kickstarter project now on Amazon.

6. Boombot Rex
With the Bluetooth speaker market quickly becoming crowded, the well-reviewed Boombot Rex seems like a safe option, particularly if you’re attracted to it’s ultraportable design.

7. California Headphones
The base model of these premium retro headphones is selling at an inexplicably low $14.95 a pair (+ shipping) – a ridiculous deal given the reviews and specs of this product!

EDIT
7 1/2. Pebble
We somehow forgot about the Pebble smartwatch in our first edition… a pretty glaring mistake given that Pebble is the second most successful Kicktarter project of all time! Thank you Reddit user Wraldpyk for pointing out our obvious omission.
