Regular readers of noti.group will know that my favorite room in my smart home is my kitchen. As an avid home cook and mom of two, this is the room where I spend the most time, and where I look for as much convenience and extra help as I can get. As a result, I’m always testing new connected gadgets in a quest to find the best ones — those that offer the most value and save me the most time.
But the problem with kitchen gadgets is that they are so expensive. This makes Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days a good time to get a great deal on some of my favorite smart kitchen products. Here’s a roundup of some of the deepest discounts I spied on products I’ve found genuinely useful in my smart kitchen.
I’ve been using an Echo Show 21 in my kitchen for about three months now, and it’s been a game-changer for cooking. It’s running Alexa Plus, the new AI-powered version of Amazon’s voice assistant, and it handles recipes so much better than before.
I can pull up the recipe and it stays on the screen, and Alexa responds to my questions about what to do next while I’m cooking, without having to remind it which recipe we were discussing. I can also send recipes to it and store them in a new Cooking Library for easy access. Plus, I can upload photos of handwritten notes and Alexa will format them into a digital version.
As a bonus, the Show is also a Fire TV, so I can catch up on my shows while cooking. The additional adjustable stand is a must unless you plan to wall-mount it. The Echo Show 15 is also a good option if the 21-inch model is too large for your countertops. Read my review of Alexa Plus here.
I’ve tried a lot of different air fryers — bucket style, mini oven style — you name it, I’ve tried it. None are as good as the Typhur Dome 2. Its wide basket design provides more space than most air fryers, while its low ceiling helps keep the hottest air on the food. This makes it perfect for cooking larger meals (essential for a family of four).
It makes the best chicken wings I’ve ever tasted, and can reheat an entire pizza in minutes. Its design also means foods cook faster, and you don’t need to pre-heat, plus it has an awesome self-clean mode. The downside is it’s a countertop hog, at about 14 inches wide. The app is useful, with some good recipes, and it sends an alert when the food is done. However, all the controls you need are also right on the device.
