The kitchen's never been so smart (or so expensive)

2016-05-06
smart kitchen appliances are nothing new but manufacturers keep making them and people largely keep on passing them up now these Samsung models are some of the latest attempts at winning the shopping public over we wanted to know if any of the smarts are more compelling than before so what's the point in having an oven with Wi-Fi well for Samsung it's all about convenience with this oven you can use an app to control certain oven functions so let's say you're at work and you want a nice hot oven when you get home you can set a pre heat from your app which is pretty convenient when you're really really busy now as cool as the Wi-Fi oven and the app art there are still some limitations the app gets a little finicky if you've been away from it for a while and it's a little hard to set up and as an oven the Samsung unit is just okay which is not what you'd expect for a three thousand dollar appliance with the family hub refrigerator you've got this 21 and a half inch touchscreen on the door that has apps for things like syncing up your family's calendars streaming music even ordering groceries you also have cameras with the thing but they're inside of the fridge you use those to check your inventory while you're out at the grocery or here on the fridge itself for labeling when stuffs about to expire and there are other smart fridges on the market too g e--'s got one that'll make it coffee in the morning royal pools got one that works with nest LG has one that opens the doors automatically when your arms are full they all do different things because they're all sort of big expensive dart throws manufacturers are still trying to figure out how to get people to buy into the idea of smart refrigerators to begin with and that's not an easy task this one here costs six thousand dollars and that's the thing there aren't any budget-friendly options available right now if you want a smart large kitchen appliance it's luxury or novice yeah and they don't feel totally necessary for the smart kitchen yet either I mean if you want to have smart cooking assistance with your stove or smart inventory management in your fridge there are devices that will work with your existing dumb appliances and get the job done that's what we think it's a smarter idea to forego large kitchen appliances that try to do everything instead opted for specialized small appliances that cost a lot less
