Auto Opening Trash Can
You know the scenario; you’ve just wiped over the kitchen work surfaces and have swept a mass of crud and crumbs into your hand. All you need to do now is open the dustbin lid and deposit said crud into the trash. Aarrgg! On opening the bin, you’ve now lost most of the muck onto the floor and all around the bin. Much cursing then begins as you re-start the process of cleaning up the crud off the floor!

Keep riff-raff out with the Digital Deadbolt
How many of us often lose our keys (and in the very same process, gain a few strands of grey hairs as well as lose some sanity), only to call the locksmith and change the entire household’s locks? This could turn out to be a rather costly affair in the end, not to mention time consuming and inconvenient. Why not settle for a keypad deadbolt lock that does not run on batteries or electricity? Smart Home is offering the Ultra-Secure Digital Deadbolt for just $99.99, and it is worth the investment since you would not want to risk your little piece of Utopia being broken into without a fight.

Beyond Microwave Oven – The Perfect Cook
Most of us definitely aren’t gourmet chefs judging by the type of dinners we take every day. Most of the time we mindlessly pop in a frozen TV dinner into the microwave, close the door, set the estimated cooking time, and wait.
