KitchenAid unveils its own Google smart display

KitchenAid proves that everyone wants to get into the smart home space. The company unveiled its own smart screen, aptly called the KitchenAid Smart Display. It’s a standard smart screen that seems to take design cues from Lenovo’s own display. This time, though, you get a 10-inch IPX-5 water-resistant display. And to help differentiate it, it has Yummly recipe search engine, which KitchenAid’s parent company Whirlpool bought two years back. Some recipes even feature videos from professional chefs such as Richard Blais, Daniel Holzman, Carla Hall, and Jet Tila. KitchenAid pairs this with Google Assistant to give you access to the same features you’d expect to get with other smart displays. It’ll let you watch YouTube videos, make shopping lists, as well as control your smart home devices. The KitchenAid Smart Display is expected to come out in the second half of the year and pricing is expected to range between US$200 and $300.
