There’s no better way to shorten your time in the kitchen than with smart kitchen appliances. With every invention, it feels like we get a glimpse of what it’s like to be a Jetson! As a result, even the most basic things we use on a day-to-day basis have become pretty advanced and a quick Prime shipment away.
It was just a few years ago that voice assistants like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant weren’t common things to have in your home, and now apps and voice assistants can control everything from your lightbulbs to your refrigerator. Your mornings can be transformed by a clever machine that remembers just how you like your coffee. You can talk to your microwave or control your meat thermometer from your phone. Even your beloved Instant Pot is—or at least can be—smarter than you think, with Wi-Fi capability.
