The Internet of Things Comes to the Kitchen with the June Intelligent Oven

The world of IoT is seemingly infiltrating every part of our lives. We turn on lights and unlock doors with our smartphones. We ask a little sphere sitting across the room to order more toilet paper, delivered straight to our doors. However, what happens once we get in the kitchen?

Until now, things have been a little stagnant in the world of culinary IoT (if that’s even a subgroup). June is hoping to change that. The little smart oven that could, perhaps June’s name is an homage to everyone’s favorite dutiful wife, June Cleaver.

Whatever it is, June takes the burden of guesswork away from the novice chef, and makes it easy to get the right results every single time. The world’s only smart convection oven, it uses carbon fiber heating elements to preheat three times faster than a normal oven, and cook quicker and more uniformly. However, that’s just where the wow factor starts.

June’s ever-evolving software pairs with its internal HD camera to identify whatever food you place inside, allowing the oven to correctly select a cooking setting to cook your food to the doneness you prefer. Then, it measures the internal temperatures during the cooking process, to ensure what you want is what you get. Plus, you don’t even have to be at home to cook your favorite meal. The iOS app controls the June oven from anywhere at all, and you’ll receive a notification when the food is ready.

Of course, this countertop convection oven comes with a high price tag. At $1,495, it’s an investment. But, if you’re a home cook looking for a smarter, easier and faster way to bake, you’d certainly get a lot of use out of June.

On the fence? If you order by Sept. 30, you’ll enjoy a 100-day, no-questions-asked return policy and a two-year warranty.
