If you’re planning a remodel, it’s the perfect time to look beyond cabinetry and countertops—and into the future.
Today’s smart kitchen appliances don’t just look sleek; they’re designed to make life easier, faster, and more efficient. From ovens you can preheat from your phone to fridges that keep track of your groceries, the kitchen is becoming one of the most connected rooms in the house.
But are smart appliances worth the investment? And which ones actually improve your day-to-day life?
Let’s break it down.
What Are Smart Kitchen Appliances?
Smart kitchen appliances are devices that use technology—typically Wi-Fi or Bluetooth—to connect with your phone or home assistant (like Alexa or Google Home). This allows you to:
• Control appliances remotely
• Get alerts (like when the dishwasher is done or the oven’s preheated)
• Automate settings (like starting the coffee at 7am)
• Receive maintenance updates or energy usage reports
Bottom line? Convenience meets control.
6 Smart Kitchen Appliances That Are Changing the Game in 2025
Here are the top-performing, design-friendly options we’re seeing clients ask for in today’s high-end kitchen remodels:
1. Smart Ovens
Modern smart ovens let you preheat, adjust temperatures, and set timers from your phone—perfect for busy families or multitaskers. Many include guided recipes and camera feeds so you can check progress without opening the door.
Trending brands: GE Profile, Bosch, Samsung SmartThings
2. Wi-Fi Enabled Refrigerators
These fridges do more than keep your food cold. You can see inside remotely, track expiration dates, and even get recipe suggestions based on what’s inside.
Bonus: Some models have built-in touchscreens, grocery list sync, and even family calendars.
3. Voice-Activated Faucets
Yep, your faucet can be smart too. Ask it to dispense a specific amount of water, turn on hands-free while your hands are messy, or even monitor water usage.
Top brands: Moen U by Moen, Delta VoiceIQ
4. Smart Dishwashers
Not only do smart dishwashers send alerts when cycles are done, many also automatically reorder detergent or adjust settings based on load size and soil levels. Quiet, sleek, and efficient.
5. Smart Coffee Makers
Schedule your brew, customize strength, and get notified when it’s ready—without leaving bed. Many pair with Alexa or apps like SmartHQ or Home Connect.
6. Induction Cooktops with Touch + Safety Features
Modern induction cooktops are often integrated into countertops and feature pan sensors, auto shutoff, and precision control via app. Some even double as extra counter space when off.
Are Smart Kitchen Appliances Worth It?
Here’s when they make sense:
You cook frequently or entertain often
You love tech, convenience, or energy efficiency
You want a future-forward kitchen that boosts resale value
You have a growing household that could use automation
That said, not all smart appliances are created equal. Choose ones that blend functionality with real-life use, not just bells and whistles.
