5.BREVILLE SMART OVEN AIR
Breville has an entire line of countertop “Smart Ovens,” but we prefer the Smart Oven Air, as it throws in a handy (and trendy) air fryer function — along with 12 other pre-set modes for making everything from pizza to roast turkey to beef jerky. It’s able to cook such a wide variety of foods thanks to its Element IQ and PID Temperature Control technologies that use sensors to smartly direct the oven’s six independent quartz heating elements precisely when and where they need to direct their heat.
6.DYSON PURE HOT+COOL HP04 PURIFYING HEATER + FAN
Pretty much every item that Dyson makes qualifies as “smart” in some way, shape, or form, but the brand’s air purifiers are especially bright as they use air multiplier technology to blow out powerful, purified air without the use of fans. It’s like magic. This model functions as a heater as well as a cooling fan and air purifier, and it’s also WiFi-connected, allowing you to control it in the Dyson Link app and with your voice via Siri or Alexa. You can also monitor air quality stats in the app, as the machine automatically detects, diagnoses, and reports airborne particles and gases in real-time.
