I’m not sure what it is about this time of year that makes me want to completely redecorate the house. Maybe it’s because we’re taking down the holiday decorations and the rooms are starting to look empty and bare. It might be because a few of our holiday gifts were “SmartHome” related and we’re so excited to try them out. Or that we’ve been stuck in the house because of freezing temperatures and have watched about 600 home improvement shows. Whatever it is, the last few days have been a whirlwind of improvements and upgrades and changes to our home. I absolutely love it!
My husband and I have started to become a bit obsessed with networking just about everything in the house. We have a smart fridge, a smart doorbell, smart garage doors, smart lights and sound, and more. We are always looking for great new ways to make our home and its features more comfortable and easier to use.
One of the new SmartHome gadgets we have is the Amazon Echo. The children like to play games with it and my husband loves finding cool gadgets to connect with it. One of those gadgets is the Hunter SIMPLEconnect Ceiling Fan.
When we built our house, there were a few “must-haves” – including a ceiling fan in every room. I like for the air to be moving – whether it’s hot or cold outside – I don’t like a “still” room. When my husband wanted to upgrade the ceiling fans – starting with our guest room – it did not take much convincing.
I want the guests in our home to feel comfortable and to have everything they might need. There are towels and toiletries in the guest bath, snacks and waters in the fridge, and other home comforts available.
Since we want everything to be easy to use, the SIMPLEconnect Ceiling Fan is perfect for our guest room.
Our friends will be able to control the fan and the light with the remote control or with our Echo.
My husband had it installed and connected in minutes and the kids immediately started asking Alexa to change the speed over and over again.
Hunter’s line of SIMPLEconnect wifi-enabled smart fans are all compatible with Apple HomeKit and Amazon Alexa. There are five new finishes to choose from to match any home décor, and even a new design coming out soon – the Brunswick – later in 2018.
We’re looking forward to adding Hunter SIMPLEconnect Fans to the rest of our rooms this year. The SIMPLEconnect™ WiFi-enabled collection starts at $299 and is available at HunterFan.com, as well as in lighting showrooms, home centers and online retailers nationwide.
