Smart Home

Smart homes are the wave of the future, and for good reason. Just a few years ago, connecting all the lights in your home required major renovations, home security cameras were outrageously expensive, and monitoring your thermostat from miles away seemed like something out of The Jetsons. Now, all of this and more can be handled with just a few easy clicks on your phone.

Companies like Nest, Google and Ring, among others, are innovating everyday home products so you can have complete control and piece of mind over your home for reasonable prices. From video-capable doorbells to Alexa-enabled microwaves to whole-home surround sound, it’s finally possible to transform your plain old house into your high-tech dream home with minimal hassle.

Here are some of the most useful, secure or just plain cool smart home products to upgrade your digs.
