The New Year Is Just Around the Corner

Is Your Home Smart Enough for 2020?

Transparent refrigerators? Beds that monitor your sleep? A toilet that can…well, we don’t need to get into that just yet. Let’s just say that the smart home of 2020 makes life easier so that you can focus on what’s really important (like catching up on your Netflix queue). Here are some of the necessities your Northeast Ohio smart home needs to remain at the top of the class in 2020:

The Fridge with the Invisible Doors

The LG InstaView™ Door-in-Door® refrigerator lets you see the contents of the fridge without opening the door. Just knock twice, and the door illuminates to show you how much milk you have left or if someone ate those leftovers from last night. No more letting cold air out while you make your dining decisions.

The Shades That You Can Close Without Leaving Your Bed

If you’ve ever worked a night shift, there’s nothing worse than forgetting to shut the blinds and allowing the sunshine to ruin your beauty sleep. That never has to happen again! Lutron’s Serena Shades can be activated by a remote or mobile phone, but the real selling point is that you can connect the blinds to your Alexa, and she can shut the blinds without you even rolling over. Just say “Alexa, close the blinds,” and it’s done!

The Virtual Assistant That Can Take Notes While You Shower

It’s 6:30 a.m. You are getting ready for a big meeting, and you have the best idea you’ve ever had, but you are in the shower. Rather than hopping out, grabbing a towel, and feeling the chill of the cold air on you as you run for a pad and paper, wouldn’t it be great if you could just yell your idea into the air and have it recorded? Now you can with JBL’s LINK 10 Bluetooth speaker. Sure, this speaker can play all of the hits you love to sing for shower karaoke, but it can do so much more. The speaker also comes equipped with Google Assistant technology, which enables you to give directions, notes, and reminders without ever leaving the shower.

The Toilet Seat That Will Change Your Routine

In the year 2020, even your toilet seat is smart. The Toto Washlet C100 Seat can heat up, deodorize, and even pre-mist to help reduce toilet grime. High-class luxury even follows you into the bathroom nowadays!

Is your home’s electrical system smart enough to handle the future? If you have old wiring or antiquated outlets, you might not be ready for all of these wonderful appliances.
