The kitchen has come a long way from the days when it contained just a simple range, fridge, and microwave. Now you can upgrade your kitchen to connect many of your appliances and gadgets to the internet and control them from an app on your phone or tablet. You can even control some of them with your voice.
These futuristic home cooking hubs are known as smart kitchens. You might have a smart oven that you can preheat remotely, a coffee maker that lets you brew a cup from your phone, or a dishwasher that notifies you when it has completed a cycle. You can build a whole new kitchen with these upgrades by replacing all your "dumb" appliances with smart, connected versions, or you can just replace a few that you feel will benefit your life the most.
With these highly rated smart kitchen items at Costco, you can create a kitchen routine that practically runs itself. (Just make sure to ask the right questions before buying any appliances so you don't end up with something that won't fit in your kitchen.)
