At first, smart appliances seemed so…smart. And then, the reality was some of the functions—like starting a load of whites from abroad—weren’t so useful after all. The second generation of smart appliances in Kelowna, however, feature touch screens with options that truly make your life easier.
Here is a profile of two touch screen appliances that do all the thinking for you so you can prepare the best meals and beverages by simply lifting your fingers here and there.
Miele CM6300 Barista bean-to-cup coffee maker

Everyone likes their coffee just so. Miele’s machine uses a touch screen to let you choose just how much milk, froth, water and coffee you want in your latte and the bean grinding setting and the water temperature. It’s like having a café in your kitchen, with even more options to order.
The CM6300 is smart in other ways too. Ask the heating rack to warm your cups just before your alarm in the morning. Choose one of your customized recipes to fill two mugs. Then tell your coffee maker to clean itself. When you’re looking for smart appliances in Kelowna, don’t forget about your very own electronic barista!
Jenn-Air Wall Oven with Touch-Anywhere LCD Display & Culinary Centre

This wall oven from Jenn-Air features a seven-inch full-colour LCD display they call the ‘Touch-Anywhere.’ Designed to make sophisticated cooking simple, the touch screen culinary centre offers guidance through more than 50 food options.
Choose from a handful of automatic modes for baking casseroles, broiling steaks or puffing pastry, and then choose how well done you want your meat to be and the type of pan you’re using. Just to make sure you’re really after a medium rare prime rib, the screen will show you a picture of one.
Instead of clunky, hard-to-clean knobs, choose your temperature setting with the swipe of your finger the same way you scroll through photos on an iPhone. This is one of those luxury Kelowna appliances insiders have been talking about for a while, and for good reason.
