Smart kitchen appliances are internet-connected devices that enable remote control, task automation, and integration with virtual assistants. Examples include refrigerators with touchscreens, app-controlled ovens, programmable coffee makers, and stoves with temperature sensors. Adoption is rising in Brazil, driven by convenience and energy savings.
