According to Statista, the year 2018 has brought US$23m to the American smart home market. Although household penetration was pretty high (27.6 percent), smart home solutions are neither faultless nor risk-free. How to make sure a to-be system will be user-friendly, reliable, and warmly welcomed by the market? See our overview of potential flops in the smart home market.
Home automation is reshaping real estate. 81percent of buyers state that they’d rather buy a house with a smart home product preinstalled. Regular users of smart appliances admit that smart system saves them at least 30 minutes per day (182 hours = a week and a half per year) and almost $100 per month. Established products are more than welcome by the public: some of Amazon’s Alexa-enabled speakers were sold out before 2018 year-end and will be out of stock until January 10th. However, apart from high-tech items of furniture, a truly smart home implies interconnection of multiple complex nodes such as lightning, water and drainage system, HVAC, and security system, which are not easy to incorporate and utilize, unfortunately.
