Dyson finally made a better robot, but a worse vacuum

Digital Marketing, Reviews, Robot, SEO Tips, Smart Home Reviews, Tech, Technology /
I’m deeply conflicted about the Dyson Spot + Scrub Ai robot vacuum and mop. It’s the company’s best robotic floor cleaner to date, with excellent mopping performance, good navigation and obstacle detection, and a multifunction dock that takes much of the busywork off your hands. But Dyson’s first attempt at a vacuum-and-mop combo is a […]

Ikea’s popular Varmblixt lamp just got a smart home glow-up. The delightfully bulbous light now features color-changing, dimming, and smart home control. I tested the new smart lamp in my daughter’s room and found it made a great bedside lamp and added a fun touch of ambiance to her space. While she’s rarely a fan […]

How to Ding, Dong, Ditch Ring’s surveillance network

Buying Guides, Digital Marketing, Gadgets, Reviews, SEO Tips, Smart Home Reviews, Tech, Technology /
Recently, Ring ran a Super Bowl ad for its Search Party feature showing how it uses AI to scan footage from Ring cameras and video doorbells to help find lost dogs. It sounds neighborly — until you consider that the same system could theoretically search footage for anything or anyone.  Combined with longstanding concerns around […]

I didn’t expect to love Dyson’s PencilVac Fluffycones – but I did

Digital Marketing, Hands-on, Reviews, SEO Tips, Smart Home, Smart Home Reviews, Tech, Technology /
As The Verge’s resident robot vacuum reviewer, I don’t have a lot of time (or space) in my life for stick vacs, and frankly, the ones I have used have largely disappointed me. Top-heavy, bulky, always getting clogged or running out of battery – they’re so… manual. But then I met PencilVac Fluffycones, Dyson’s new […]

Robot vacuums are impressive devices that will clean your floors well and — thanks to bigger batteries and better robot brains — rarely get tired of doing their job. Over the last few years, these floor-sweeping bots have gone from utilitarian devices to full-fledged home robots that vacuum and mop your home, clean themselves, and […]

One of the fun parts of being a tech journalist for over a decade is that occasionally you get to watch a truly unique gadget go from concept to reality – and, eventually, into your living room. That’s the case with the Mui Board, a smart home controller built into a piece of wood. The […]

This smart garden turned my black thumb green

Digital Marketing, Reviews, SEO Tips, Smart Home Reviews, Tech, Technology /
I can’t grow anything. Multiple attempts to create a cottage garden, first in Idaho and now in South Carolina, have brought disappointment. Both are challenging climates, but where others have succeeded, I’ve been left with little more than a pile of cherry tomatoes for my vast efforts (those things are bulletproof). I’d all but given […]

This $1,500 robot cooks dinner while I work

Digital Marketing, Reviews, Robot, SEO Tips, Smart Home Reviews, Tech, Technology /
As I’m sitting in my office writing this review, delicious, cheesy, garlicky scents are wafting up the stairs. I can hear whizzing and whirring, and the occasional clunk, as a robot chef in my kitchen is making macaroni and cheese. Its app tells me there are three minutes left in the process, and based on […]
