Kitchen Hub – Your Kitchen Buddy

Smart kitchen is the new trend, and it’s a great way to upgrade the heart of your home. Get a helping hand in the kitchen with a kitchen hub.

The hub is often situated at the over-the-head vent hood in your kitchen. It’s a smart touch screen that helps you control your kitchen and other parts of your home.

You can use it to search for recipes, access your recipes, and create a shopping list while you’re preparing your meals. The hub also has a video chat function!

Leave your dish while it’s cooking as the hub’s camera can let you see what’s happening in the kitchen while you’re, let’s say, in the living room.
