A smart home is one that is set up to provide the owners with comfort, efficiency, security, and convenience all the times regardless of whether there is someone at home. There are so many benefits that smart home products bring for us. It just amazes me that not many people are using them now.
Here are some advantages I got:
Comfort
These are the set it and forget it thermostat which you can monitor and control even when you are away from home.
Entertainment
This began with the smart TVs, but now we have newer entertainment hubs with the addition of Firesticks and Alexa for voice control for home control.
Safety
Having smart home safety helps in monitoring everything to ensure that nothing happens by accident. It can even help you to ensure that all your doors are locked at night without having to go out yourself

The only standalone gadget I have (my microwave is built in into the cabinets and came with the kitchen) is a hand mixer – I used it for pureeing my baby’s food when he was younger and now use it for making cream for cakes mostly. I use my oven as a toaster and no one in this house drinks coffee. Well, I suppose then you will want to count my electric kettle as a gadget since I use it to heat up water for tea. I also like making things from scratch and myself (kneading dough is awesome and I don’t know why anyone would want a bread machine to do it for them).
