Using the GE Kitchen Hub is like taking a trip back to the future. This smart GE touchscreen brings smart savvy to the heart of the home- your kitchen. Using U+ Connect platform, the Hub puts your smart home into one connected space.
The Smart Touchscreen – GE Kitchen Hub
GE’s over-the-range smart hood might just be smarter than your phone! You can snap photos of your culinary creations while you video chat with mom and adjust the air conditioning. If you have other GE Kitchen Hub capable devices, such as a GE refrigerator, you are able to operate them using this one location.
With the Hub, you can listen to Spotify, preheat the oven, start the washer, brew coffee, dim the lights in the living room, and more! With the convenience of Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa, you can easily check your calendar or view notifications.
Smart appliances are becoming indispensable in today’s modern homes. They help turn the hassle of a busy life into the ease of a daily routine.
